I guess I'm too young. I expect it.

(And actually, I'm that it's not faster...this connection makes dial-up look like modern technology...)

I was supposed to be back in civilization (and acceptable Internet speeds) by now. Unfortunately, weather out on this rock has taken a turn for the worse. Fog means our inbound aircraft can't land...which means we can't get out of here. I'm hopeful the fog dissipates (or blows away from the 30-knot wind) before the end of the day...I really, really don't want to be stuck here for another night. One day experiencing the end of the world was enough. But it was a fun day yesterday!
