My thoughts released; a mind set free |
| I had to run to the post office to track a package, so I took the dogs along for the ride. After I drove over to the site of the accident that took out our internet. It was a block building about ten feet square, but only one wall is still standing, and everything inside is destroyed. It also looks like it burned. The Postmaster said that the accident was on the radio this morning, a drunk driver lost control and took out a distribution center for the local internet. The company has re-routed service and has restored most of the area, but it's slow, almost like being back on dial-up. The driver was taken by Life-Flight (helicopter) to Minneapolis and is listed in critical condition. My neighbor knows the guy who was driving. He was just recently released from serving time for hitting and killing a pedestrian while driving drunk. I guess some people just never learn. Our internet provider states that we will have high-speed internet back within a few days, but it will take a month or more to repair the damage and restore the system to full capacity. |
