Thank you Verizon wireless

Interesting morning.

Since I have a 6:05 flight tomorrow morning I had to get up at 6 today so I could check in and get a good spot in line. You have to be quick on the draw to get a good seat.

Wake up, go to my laptop and see a message from ICQ stating there was some network issue. I immediately thought of all the ICQ threads yesterday and thought, "on noes, not me too." However, no time to worry about it now, I need to check-in in four minutes.

Go to SWA page . . . .well, try to, but I have no Internet connection. Crap! Then I remember a notice that went out a couple weeks ago stating Time-Warner was going to be doing some work. Could have sworn they said they would notify us when they got to our neighborhood, but I got none.

I have two minutes to go. Verizon Wireless to the rescue.

Retrieve my card from my laptop bag, plug it in, bring up the program and login. I was at the SWA page with about 1 minute to spare.

Got A21, which means I will be about the 6th person on-board after the pre-boarding.

That you Verizon, you saved my day.
