Downloading on borrowed time

My freeserve broadband contract has been cancelled for a few days now. After 30 days you have to pay for broadband services, so on day 29, the contract was mysteriously cancelled. Paying is so distasteful and middle-class sometimes.

What does someone in the Midlands do with broadband for 29 days? Initially, the Midlander thinks software is important, and that having tools to make Flash movies is a good idea. There needs to be an army of ferrets to protect England from the onslaught of dancing cats. Then there’s music that your animations will need to dance to. After that, there’s films you want to see, then the films that you never wanted to see enough to actually go and see but would watch if they were free. Lessons in foreign languages are a must – you never know when Italy or Spain might invade the heart of England. Comedy is always good for a laugh. Watching highly trained athletes knock each other unconscious in cage fights is last on the list. They put something in the water here to get your dander up and make you feel violent.

Soon, this Midlander will be disconnected. He’ll save many hours by not searching for things to download, and have more time to create multimedia entertainment for the fans. Expect some serious Flash output featuring breakdancing sausages invading Milwaukeee to the tune of “Ice, Ice, Baby”.
