I miss the doot-doot-doot-doot-doot, buzz, ping, clunk, ping, buzz, pop, bang, snap, crackle, pop, whoosh of my dial-up modem. The longer it made noises, the slower the connection speed was.
And if the modem didn’t hang up and it was a long distance connection …
That looks suspiciously like an iMac! My wife still has one… I don’t think it has been turned on for at least 5 years.Anyone interested? I’ll make you an offer you cannot refuse!

This is one of the few times FoxTrot has seemed really dated, as opposed to just historical.

By the time they get Jason’s report card, it’ll be time for him to go back to school.

My school doesn’t give plusses or minuses, just plain ole letters. It doesn’t matter if you have a 90% or a 120%, you still just have an A :/
