Internet versus the weather

In one corner we have the new worldwide sensation, the Internet!

In the other corner we have the tried and true champion, the Weatherrrrrr!

Last night the weather came out on top as it threw a lightning bolt that fried my cable modem. Weather still reigns supreme, and laughs at the internet.

(And thanks to comcast tech support who stayed on the phone with me for 50 minutes to figure out my problem, he was lots of fun to talk with. And the comcast girl this morning was also very helpful and pleasant. A+ to comcast tech support!)

Wow, you had a positive experience with Comcast tech support? Very surprising! 🙂 That was quite a storm, wasn’t it?

Comcast… Chicago… positive experience? I guess take what you can! 🙂 Unfortunately as others have commented on, I am not the only one surprised to hear this. Comcast has a very good offering, when it works. When it doesn’t, then the experience can be mixed. mp/m
