Crawling under the command center desk to pull plugs and re-boot DSL modems and wi-fi’s at 4 in the AM is quite fun. It wakes the system up and re-cycles one into a new sleep-cycle. Then finding out that a drunk kid took out the distribution center in the local village (at a high rate of speed) adds a lot to the ‘fun-factor’ of the whole escapade. So the streaming audio radio gets dumped in favor of a pocket radio that gets a thousand mexican/central american stations or FM ROCK 104 types.. Been there, done all that and welcome to Central Florida. And no, our local cable system is still using their tire-fixing/towing service as a sideline biz, still locked into 1972. (sigh)
Carl, no, but I do think it is amazing that they don’t actually say anything about wiping your bear bottom….Because I’ve got a hunch that was what the whole promotional idea was centered on in the first place, but somebody nixed it….Too suggestive….

If the power or the water went out as often as the cable company cuts off the interwebs, I would not bother with a refrigerator or indoor plumbing.
