Wednesday.
Today, I decided that's it - I can't take it any more. I was not having any problems with the cable, but I thought I would need to go get another haircut before web pages would load, so I decided to "degrade" to AOL 6 & speed returned. Maybe it's not good to be an early adopter?

I got my second tip! From my sister, bless her.

I was reading an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education (but FYI, it is a subscription website) that was kind of scary. The author, Philip Jenkins, generally does research to debunk commonly held myths, for example, things like the belief that there is an epidemic of pedophilia among clergy. This time around he was taking on the idea that there is a lot of pornography on the Internet that features children as the subjects. He was shocked to discover that this is one myth that is true, kiddie porn is rampant and available on the Web. He was apprehensive about his findings because he didn't want to be perceived as a person who was opposed to adult pornography, because he is not.
