Actually it would be maybe 100 kilometers of cable because they don't have fiber out here. Perhaps there is fiber to the main hubs in Minneapolis, but that would still be 70km.

I have around 21 mega bits so downloads aren't to bad. They say I can get 50 for a price.

And here I thought cable and fibre is a very common technology in the US :pif:

I suggest you to get the games "Hyperdimension Neptunia Re:Birth" it's three totally animeish role playing games with very cute goddesses fighting over the world of Gamindustri :gg:
These girl's are absolutely your taste I can assure you. :kiss:

Cable is pretty common, fiber not so much.

I just scored a nice one from rightstuf, four seasons of Farscape for $52 That's a lot of episodes of a pretty good scifi series. John Crichton, of 5min, backstory..... sort of.

Spring is making a return. After two days of March weather and frost overnight, It got almost warm today. Maybe I don't have to cover the tomato plants tonight.

Being a poor goddess of cuteness I'm currently digging through the Amazon Prime videos. There are some jewels hidden beneath the pile of dung (like "24" and the likes).

I usually find my videos at garage sales..... except anime, nobody has that on garage sales. I find books there too.

I found a free book on the net that you might like to read if you can get it, it's Twenty Eight and a half Wishes, by Denise Grover Swank. A mystery and very interesting. http://denisegroverswank.com/ I downloaded it from google play onto my tablet, it was in the free book section.

I have quite a few books on my iPad... more than enough for a lifetime. I'm currently re-reading a few books from my childhood for nostalgic reason.

One more thing about the website you sent is: I want these pink shoes, they're cute :love:

I bought a Samsung galaxy tablet to replace my old one...... The smallest tablet I could find now is 7inch screen, not very pocket size like the old one.

I found a used main board for my old tablet on Ebay, ten bucks. I was able to install the board, charge the battery, install the old board, transfer the files to the sd card, then reinstall the used board. Now my little tab is working again......... Apparently it was from some young lady in New Zealand, that was the location set in memory and the selfie type picts in the memory. Doesn't work exactly the same, some differences in software but is working.

I got a bit of time and completed two chapters of 5 min.
It looks like I'll be driving a lot next week, so I may get more done.
