so i had this conversation with sharon this weekend. it went something like this:
s: how do you have internet?
d: i dunno. there's this thing in the trees and then we've just got it. (shrug)
s: huh.
d: but when it's low tide it's really slow.
s: huh. (drink of margarita) that'd make a good blog entry.
so there you have it. inarticulate linwood jabber. it seems crazy - like another one of andy's goofy hypotheses/predictions/facts - but it's a tested theory, so it really IS true. low tide means our internet is fricking s-l-o-w. andy says it has something to do with the reflection off the water affecting something or other over on the homer side, but he's also been known to shoot off crazy minnesota caribou facts, unprompted, at the drop of a hat. (that andy!) all i know is it took me like a gazillion years to download this snazzy picture of him with his monster salmon. it's a silver; he caught it last weekend in the river, fishing with renfro.

nice fish andy wandy! sort of makes me wish i liked fish. but i don't. another thing i don't like....s-l-o-w internet. which is what we always have, cause we're pirating it from someone, somewhere, in the neighborhood. how does this crazy thing called the "internet" work anyway. andy?
greetings, amanda jane.
wow, it's nasty outside right now - rain, wind, and clouds. that's right; it's fall. although, i can't complain because my internet working fast. yes, it's near high tide of 15.4 feet, and i have somewhere near 3.5 hours before it turtles down. anywho, my internet works through a wi-fi dish below the house.
i believe wi-fi tech employs microwaves to send info back and forth. in our case, to homer and back.
simply crazy. andy. p.s. hi, matt.
oh my god, my husband is a dork. see what i have to put up with? he's lucky he's so damn cute.
isn't Andy wearing your vest Damara?
god you're good, amy. that is exactly why you are such a good friend.
