I Didn’t Know It Was Still Alive

Don’t you feel badly when you hear someone famous has died and you didn’t even realize they were still alive?

Who knew AOL still had DIAL-UP Internet service? Actually who knew AOL still existed? Having met my husband on CompuServe in the early 1990s while using 300 baud modems and paying by the minute, thinking about people using dial-up modems to access the Internet … well all I can think of is maybe the dogs and cats sitting at desks thinking “I don’t know what I’m doing” are the ones that have been keeping dial-up alive.

I’m sorry, was that rude to the people who are still using landlines to access funny dog and cat pictures? If so – I’m sowwy.
