a pirate's life for me pt. III - "we prefer to be called buccaneer-americans"

I've been using the neighbor's DSL for a couple weeks now and by now I'm taking it for granted. Fast internet is just something you get used to. It will be good when my family gets DSL + wireless network, but that will be only a few days before I leave. Remember back in the day when 'wired' was a good thing? I feel old.

No clue what the internet situation is going to be in Oregon. Campus probably has broadband with some wireless hotspots, but I need to find an internet provider for my apartment. (And an apartment.)

I was going to update the photo album site, but then I started updating my Serials 2000 database. Now I'm installing a newer (pirated) version of Photoshop. I pirated most of my software back in high school, so a lot of stuff is getting out of date now.

So I'm doing three pirate things at once. I could also rip a DVD and download music on Kazaa, for good measure.
