TGIF my friends!  Another fun puzzle except I was shocked to see MODEM as one of the clue words.  I reckon some of the younger players may have had some difficulty with that one.  Do they even know what those were?  My first computer had a 2400 baud modem and that’s how I dialed up to my local BBS (no real internet back then).  I upgraged to a 14.4 Kpbs modem and thought that was life changing.  14.4 led to 28.8 and then a 56K!  I really miss the sounds of a dial up modem.  As a teenager I would dial up late at night and my older brother would bang on my bedroom door and tell me to stop being so loud.  I couldn’t help myself as I was a pioneer of the technological revolution!  I digress, but it sure was fun remembering the early days of computer connectivity.  The cartoon answer was visible to me and not any trouble at all. Have a fantastic Friday and I’ll see you tomorrow!  😀
