Hey, so did the Internet die or something?

Sorry, I've had a cold.

No, it's not dead. It's alive and well. It's just moved all the nutrient vats
and solar panels over --> THERE.

Not dead, just sleeping. Pining for the fnords.

It was pretty much on its deathbed last night over at my friends'
house. They're terrified that they'll have to get Comcast involved in
reviving it. Nobody wants that. Especially Comcast.

The Comcast technician would not tell me the IP address of my router
because he says, "some people screw it up" . I called tech support and
they gave it to me right away.

That was the wrong answer. He should have said, "That's for me to know
and you to find out." And then laying a finger aside of his nose, he'd
