This after nearly a week of “not too bad” on the interruption of service front. Yep. Once again my ISP says they’ve fixed their problem… and haven’t.

Micro-mini-update: 4 days later. Worse today. Two calls to phone support. One, the gal wouldn’t take the ice pick out of her ear and kept saying she couldn’t hear me (riiiiiight; she responded when she wanted to). The next, the guy didn’t try that ploy, but, although he could see drops on my line, he could do nothing, as usual, but schedule a tech to come by and waste both my time and the tech’s to simply tell me–AGAIN–that there’s no problem in my equipment and that the problem’s still on their end… *sigh*
