A Hitch In The Gitalong

For those faithful friends who keep up with this blog and send me emails, Pls be patient. My Internet connection at home has been down for a few days and shows no promise of coming back up soon. The phone company (Frontier) says my computer is the problem. My computer, however, says that the DSL modem supplied by Frontier is defective. Frontier will not replace the modem, and I cannot get on the internet. I am writing this from the library in beautiful downtown Alma while having a conversation with the Librarian, LaDonna, about the vagaries of local telephone, cable and satellite TV services. I'm going to borrow my daughter Valerie's laptop and plug it into the DSL connection. If it goes on line, then my computer is the problem. If it can't get on line, then the modem is obviously the culprit. Stay tuned for further details.
