Do you remember the days when we had dialup and we’d either get a no carrier or we’d send one to a twit to drop carrier? I believe it was F5 or something like that. Those were great times way back then.

I remember racing home from school to check on my board & also dial into another local board before all of their nodes filled up.

Far too often I'd dial up that board after school & get BUSY. So I'd have to retry several times. Can't remember if Telix auto-redialed or not...

Telix wasn’t too bad but loved Terminate more though. Yeah I hated waiting for hours by redialing because it was busy.

Hahahahaha.... HAR!

No, really. I really did LOL at this, in my mind it was said by a
guy with a cowboy hat on and a strong country "twang" voice... and
then a big spit of tobaccy juice there at the end.
