New article in News (Regular musings and updates): Internet Connection? What...?

I do not have a reliable Internet connection in the winter. Every winter, my cable modem keeps losing its connection; this is apparently related to the temperature outside somehow. Time Warner has sent technicians out several winters in a row to try to fix the problem... replacing the modem, cable from the pole to the house, and testing everything.

Still, when freezing temperatures arrive, the connection becomes very slow and / or unreliable. I'm having a bit of trouble with all of that right now, but it's no excuse for not having updates for the comic this month. I can't promise anything at the moment, but I'll shoot for something by the end of the year.

There is a new song in the music section. Go give it a listen.

Happy Holidays! Drive safe and remember to eat plenty of pie. Countless people suffer from pie deficiency each year so you have to do your part - eat pie and share pie with others....
