Emergency Dial up!
The Old Internet & Cable Went Out Today & Got Me To Thinking What if It Went Out Long Term. Well First I needed to Call Xfinity. But Whoop Where is the Phone Number??? Well a Quick Reboot of The Bedroom Controller Spit One Out! Now I Got a Label on my PC With the Number. Came Back On Quick Enough But I Like To Be Prepared!
Got To Thinking Can You Still Use Dial Up! I'm Still on the Old AOL Since My Emails Been There For Decades! After a Brief Search Yes You can Get It and There are Local Numbers and I Still Have the Old Land Line Too! So If Push Comes to Shove It Maybe an Emergency Avenue.
Also there Are Free Services Out there For Dial Up!

Well if You Like to Be Prepared Download a Program or Programs to Be Prepared! If You Still Got a Landline Anyway! Crazy World Out There! I Gotta Go Rob The Latest Modem out of One Of My Dead Horse Computers! Ya, I Got Em All, Even My First Windows 3 OS 486! A Museum Piece These Days!
Look Out 56K!
In Honor of Old Tech a Song Which Fits Me Pretty Good!

If I still have my cell phone I can use it as a hotspot. If the cell service is down here I look towards the southwest to see if the mushroom cloud is growing over Oak Ridge (Home of Little Boy and Fat Man).

We are living in a very fragile yet volatile system we are relying on, with a bunch of bad characters with bad intentions.
Don't worry, as if life is not complicated enough we ask for more, so AI is on its way. Have fun!

Yup, that is the fix I use as well. Hotspot my phone and use it for the essentials.

Although a Young Man When This Came Out I'm Feeling Like a Battered old Soul These Days! Great Tune! As They Say in the UK Just Brilliant!
It Seems Funerals are Going Out Of Style These Days and Likely I will Just get Cremated and Tossed.
If I Had A Funeral Though this Song Would Be on the Memorial Play List! Whiter Shade of Pale Too! Great Finale! Nobody Left To Come Anyway I'm the Baby of the Family! Everybody is Gone!
Nights in White Satin Reminds Me of Slow Dancing as a Young Teen! There is a More Cheerful Memory!
Forgot to Mention Wife Has a **** Smart Phone as Well So Dial Up is 3rd Choice! Not That I have Much Expertise with it But am Hip to Hot Spot! Just Wanted to Throw Out an out of The Box Solution!
