Yes. I have decided I'll take it. Thanks Octopus Pokemon..
 
This is what I found at .... http://broadbandnow.com/Florida/Archer?zip=32618

Being in the boonies does suck for access. I tried the Tmobile cell phone access route - too expensive esp when you go over the monthly "limit". Tried HughesNet (satellite) - it worked, but we kept having "access difficulties" for some unexplained reason. Then we got on with a fixed site wireless company - the signal comes from an antenna on a water tower about 7 or 8 miles away (used to come from a 400 ft tall radio tower 11 miles away).

Access is pretty good most of the time. Lightning strikes during thunderstorms sometimes takes it down for a while.

on the link search above, the SVIC company may be similar to ours. When I clicked on the service availability link, it came up dead. Usually these providers have a map that shows the coverage limits for a given tower set.

Does your internet work with netflix?

Yea over the limit would KILL us. We have used 537.19gb of data in the last 60 days. (it tells me 60 days instead of 30 for some reason)

Thats not ever going to be possible again by the sounds of it LOL

Never heard of the SVIC, looks like they are the highest priced, with the lowest speeds... Great combo LOL.... Man im going to be like back in the dial-up ages if that becomes the only option LOL

The at&t uverse at top was the first one we called... No uverse, or any other options for us either. Also called Cox, dish, and even Hughes.... Who at first sounded like they were certain they could service us... then a few minutes in the convo changed and they sounded unsure, but still wanted us to pay right away.... Before they knew for sure??? sounded iffy, and then i did some searching online and found a bunch of complaints on the company itself.

Ill look more into the SVIC one... But its still looking like we'll have to use a cell phone.

Thanks Octopus Pokemon

Good snarking there!! :thumbup:
 
Hey Bladite, I see you've changed your.. um.. words under your name. Indeed you are a Gentleman of Leisure. What did it say before? It looked like gibberish. Gentleman of Gibberish? I looked at it for ages but couldn't decipher it. But then, I'm only a reprobate according to DerekH who's handsome according to his mother. And Moose.

i haven't changed it in 20 years

are you on "the drugs?"

perhaps your neural net is failing?

i would get that looked at
 
Really? It looked weirder before. Maybe my neural net is kaput. Oh well. Back to your snarkularly snarkuled snarkramming..

if you are seeing it right side up and proper, your computer is not knowing the proper fonts (anymore), and should be looked at

No not really... I think... BladeForums is not quite 17 years old yet...I think...


I like me some knobber Creeksy i tell ya what!! More better than the maker's of mark whalberg. Yummy taste and doesnt burn my mouth... But at 100 proof, when it hits my stomach it feels like burning diesel... Still... Ill take it :D


I prolly look (more?) crazy in here dancing with myself... Could be doing worse with myself though HA!

Country fried, baptized in gravy...Can't wash off what the good Lord made ya
No matter how far that highway goes....An old dirt road'll get you home
C'mon!
If you see it in their eye when they try to lie
If you the bullet-hole-in-a-stop-sign kind
Then I'm right there wit'cha, put your drinks up high
For my country folk (hey) my country folk (hey)

Well, just dog-doo. Went to edit some pics to get them below the uppersize limit for the forum and found that I don't have a pic editor capable of doing that anymore. I used to use MS Office Photo Editor on my old system. I made the rash assumption that the new MSO had it as well. Found out it doesn't. NOT a happy camper right now. :mad:
 
Arrived at the Outer Banks last night...just knew I could make it on a single tank. Pulled in to get gas and while I was pumping, I saw this...
Haha, didn't make it inside but might check back one day this week! Guess I should have something in there for size perspective... It's very large, maybe 3x5ish?
 
I wish Guyon the best of luck in his new business venture!


We know the biscuits are going to be excellent, but I bet the waffles are awesome too.
 
That is hilarious NC
I got to thinking, (not always the best idea) and I think I've decided to keep my 17, for now. I've never really used it so I should probably put it through its paces before I decide to give it up. But o really appreciate the offer NC

For any one interested I have a Kershaw Whirlwind for trade over on the esee forum

NC, you should have stopped in. We have Yuengling on tap, and the waffle porn is to die for. Gravy biscuits too!
