Verizon sucks...

though this one really isn't their fault. It's the fault of their router vendor. It's their fault that the power adapter fried yesterday, and I'm dead in the water with access in my house until the replacement arrives.

So, I sit in my neighbors' house plugged into their router for a few minutes. Strange how attached we become to our networks in this day and age. If they're down for even a few hours or a few days, we begin to feel isolated, cut off. (South Park got it right in their latest episode.)
