One of the pictures I was trying to upload:

A quick attempt (using The GIMP) at the fake model technique. Needs work.

Why does Comcast hate me? I've always been a good customer. I even tell everyone how much I love the blazing fast connection I get.

But yet, when I go to upload pictures to my gallery, they throttle me to zero. I can barely send a text file right now, let alone a picture. Why Comcast? Why?

And none of that "We only throttle P2P" crap. I'm not using any P2P. I start off an upload at half a megabit/s and it rapidly trickles down to speeds I haven't known since we first unpacked our SupraExpress 336e (at that time these speeds were joyful... now... not so much)

I leaned back and stretched, then let my hands down and hit my head. Then I noticed everything was blurry. For a moment I was really concerned. Then I got closer to my monitor and realized that I was just sitting back too far (and not wearing my glasses). Hehe...

(I am so looking forward to this long weekend...)
