- Mood: "It was the last straw that broke the camel's back."
- Weather:
I don't think I want another Tuesday again.- The wi-fi decided to have a major hissy fit
- The forum servers got hit with another denial of service attack
- The grandkids were visiting
- Meal schedules were way disrupted
- A squirrel got loose in the forum
- Hunnyl had to cope with me trying to cope with all of it.
The wi-fi has been a major pain in my side lately. Totally unreliable, and we have reported it several times. The campground owner has tried very hard, but there is something seriously wrong with it. I would get one of those data cards but I use too much bandwith. I will probably wind up having to get a satellite and monthly service. After the initail cost of the equipment it will run about the same as the data card. Of course I could give up the internet altogether, but I dont think there are that many books left lying around campground laundry rooms.
The kids running private servers and running illegal Runescape games have taxed the system lately. The worst problems seems to be the maturity level of the players. That combined with enough knowledge to be dangerous. They run denial of service attacks against whoever they are mad at. They don't realize that the private server is not "their' server. It's on OURS. This is not just annoying to everyone involved but it's illegal. They don't realize that every computer that they use to do this is recorded and their isp is notified. I would love to be around when their parents find out their internet connection is gone and why.
I love the grandkids, but any semblance between a schedule and them has a wide gap. Supper was pushed back from 6 pm(their requested meal preference. I was cooking) to 8pm. Okay fine, it's vacation. At 7:55pm as dinner was being finalized, there was an announcement. "We're going swimming, be back in about an hour" from Hunny's daughter. Anyone that knows me can tell you exactly what happened then. It wasn't pretty.
I walked back in the rig and saw my computer flashing alerts. Some wise guy had joined the forum and filled it with comments that had nothing to do with the threads involved. Most of them seemed to indicate that he was really fond of his private parts and their activities. Yep, wrong time to push LL's button. He's on a permanent vacation. 43 posts before I saw it.
I just want to say, I love my Hunny. He persuaded me that packing my suitcase and moving to some country without internet, television and telephone was not the answer and that sitting around the campfire with him and quietly chatting was really what I needed. You know what? He was right.
