man, when i go home periodically from here at school... the dial-up drives me nuts.
I remember all through middle and high school, we had a single telephone line... and a netcom account we accessed from a 28.8 modem. wow, so many nights up when nobody was likely to pick up the phone and kill the connection.
the good ol' days weren't

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
