I been duped!

At least I think I have.

When I first got this computer, it came with free internet access.
I didn't think nuthin of it. It sounded like a pretty good deal to me.

Well, today I finally decide to go there.
Ya know what? There's no way to get there!
All a bunch of lies!
Someone said, "You can't go there, silly.It's only a bunch of wires and cables and fancy stuff I can't pronounce."
It's some invisible enigma lurking in the dark. Ready to drain you life's blood out of you.

I got in my car and decided; I wasn't stopping until I got to the internet.
When the cop pulled me over to ask why I was driving in such erratic fashion, I explained that I was in a frenetic search for the internet because someone said that I couldn't go there. And I felt I'd been duped!
He said, "Well it's quite easy to get there actually. Ya just go the way yer headin' about another three miles. Turn left. Take that down about a mile and a half, and you'll see it there on your right."

Well, now this was sounding too easy. But I thought I may as well give it a try; as long as I've gotten this far. So I took off with a new sense of purpose, and a new sense of direction.
I wasn't at all surprised when I got there and there was no internet.
Of course there wasn't an internet there.:rolleyes:
Well how could there be?? What with all them cars all over the interstate:eek:

I'm beginning to feel a conspiracy here.

I decided to try to get to the internet as long as I was already here. So I began driving the interstate looking for the internet.
I just passed someplace called BreezeWood Pennsyvania; or something like that.

Does anybody know how to get to the internet from here?

The internet. There should be a building or something. A physical place where the internet is headquartered :p

Well, I think you are on the right track. I've read an article on internet the other day, I think it is an Ad. When you see the sign Internet Superhighway - get into the highway. This road will connect you to Internet. I think there is no speed limit zone.
But becareful of the photo radar.
:confused: :D

brandon is actually correct. The last time I went to the Internet I followed the SuperHighway as well.

The problem when I went the first time was that I found myself a little low on gas so I took the AOL offramp -- UGH Major Mistake!!! Once you get in that area you'll be going in circles for what feels like forever trying to get back on the SuperHighway! Do yourself a favor and fill up before you get on the SuperHighway and save yourself the hassle I went through.

I've heard there is a shortcut which bypasses the congestion of rush hour but that map is held sacred by the few who have had the pleasure of viewing it.
