since the theme for this month is relationships, i want to talk just a bit about my internet relationship. no i'm not talking about a relationship with someone via the internet. i'm talking about my personal relationship with the internet itself.

i am old enough to remember back when there was no internet. back before email. back when word processors were just beginning to reside on mainframe computers, provided you put in codes like .sk to skip a line. come to think of it, those early word processors were not unlike html is today, with all sorts of arcane codes like b and i.

i never felt the absence of the internet before it came into my life. my life didn't feel at all empty without it. but i was quick to adapt. by the early 90s i was online with prodigy and whatever the name was of the predecessor to prodigy.
