  • Hey, good looking

    I met someone.

    Her name is Sprint Mobile Broadband Card, and she gives me what I want.  You know what I’m talking about.  That’s right: internet.

    So, I have internet wherever I go now.  It is working (currently) in the field, though it is quite slow (so probably few pics) and only works if a) The modem faces the right direction b) I hold it the right way c) There is not a trailer blocking the direction towards the pass where the internet leaks through d) It’s not too windy e) Jupiter is in Scorpio f) I am standing on one leg g) the terrorist alert system is aquamarine or lower.

    Hooray.

  • Ooh, cool. Now you can spend your time in the field reading Chinese Chicken recipes and angry lecture stories.

  • aquamarine is by far my favorite terrorist alert level color

  • ohh.. that is pretty cool.

    I agree with brian… aquamarine is definitely the best terror alert color.

  • But it only works if you stand on your left leg, right?

    Ahhh, It’s gloomy now…bye bye internet.

  • so what’s the standard field duration for you? a couple weeks? either way, internet will get you over the hump …

  • @ConFyuShis - 

    On average (standard deviation VERY high) it’s 10 days. In theory, it’s 10 on, 4 off, but I can’t think of a single time that has happened.

  • I think it’s great the way she seems to just light-up when you are around. Happy interneting in the field.

  • I have someone too. I can get internet using my cell phone as a modem. It’s pretty sweet when you are traveling. Fast enough, but I don’t download with it. We are able to watch movies over Netflix though, and that’s pretty swell when you only have one fuzzy channel (I don’t believe in paying for TV channels).

  • hahahaha!!!!!! Holy shit that’s funny! I LOVE the list of requirements needed in order to get internet!!! AWESOME
