Talk About A God-Awful 24 Hours -- First, Spectrum Internet Down; Now Verizon Down -- November 2, 2017

Spectrum cable/internet service went down about 9:30 p.m. last night (cable television was okay -- we saw THE GAME. Spectrum was down for the entire state of Texas until mid-morning, and it appears not all of Texas is yet back up.

And then Verizon went down overnight. 

My wife has Verizon. She's not a happy camper.

I have ATT. I'm a very, very happy camper. ATT never goes down. LOL. [Later: I just realized, I have Sprint (when I got my monthly bill), not ATT. Same difference. Whatever.]

Whatever.

Our internet provider interrupted service from 9:30 p.m. last night to 9:30 a.m. this morning. No explanation. No weather problems. Nothing. We simply lost service. But it's up now.

Speaking Of God-Awful

So, "they" polled the millennials. Asking them who could be best described as "hero" for/of their country. Here's their list:


Who's missing?

Yup.

Less than a year out of office, and they've already forgotten "their" hero.

Pretty funny.

A huge "thank you" to Don.

But there's an even bigger story in that graph.

Take a minute. What is the bigger story?

The bigger story? Those who posted the poll were not sure Americans could identify who was an "American politician" or "other" -- so they color-coded it for those in the Ozarks.

When I asked that poll among friends and neighbors, the first thing they noted: President Obama was not on the list. At least they remembered him. The millennials completely forgot about him.
