That’s me in bold up there, talking about “Internet” before the addition of “the.” By that time I’d already learned how to befuddle workers at Radio Shack with my awesome skills with Basic. My first connection to a greater digital world came in the 1980s when my family purchased a rotary phone modem. I’d wait for my ASCII art to download while watching Friday Night Videos, or some black and white show that was just there for background sound.
Let’s just say that I’ve been wired for well over 40 years.
This, my friends, is a story in many parts – so feel free to come back tomorrow for more of the story.
Until next time,
