Fancy Gap, North Carolina. How did I get to be this advanced age without ever hearing of Fancy Gap? I was driving the morning we traveled through, but first we pulled off the road so he could show me how to manually downshift his big Chevy truck. I’d need to do that on the seven-mile grade after the Gap. And then we hit fog. That’s such a common occurrence that they’ve painted special lines to follow through that stretch as well as several escape lanes for runaway trucks and signs flashing “FOG ADVISORY”. Unfortunately the fog was so thick we might as well have been in a tunnel; no view of Fancy Gap for me this trip.

The fees! The fees are everywhere! As a rule of thumb, the collection of taxes, fees, and surcharges above the stated subscription price ranged from about 15% to 30% of any given customer’s total bill (including bills we looked at but didn’t publish). Taxes and state charges are, of course, highly variable. State and local taxes ranged from 0% to about 9%, depending on where subscribers live. Likewise, some states charge telecom taxes or franchise fees, while others don’t; all told, it makes for one big mess to compare different locations in any apples-to-apples way. Similarly, some fees that are technically added by the companies — to recoup state or federal charges — are fixed by other entities, and so the cable companies don’t have much to do with it. But then there are the pure revenue fees — those times where cable companies are making bank by charging you money they could just have put in their packages. The biggest bugaboos we saw?

But… Hang on, you say, don’t blacksmiths make wrought iron? At which point the floodgates open if you are talking to a blacksmith, and you receive the Wrought Iron Lecture.

Just think how much space people would have today on their harddrives if it was not for MP3s and movies. Ten years ago nobody would of thought that in the future people’s 60GB harddrives would be full of “MP3s” “downloaded” “off of the Internet.”

Let’s assume that the so-called killer application doesn’t turn up tomorrow. The chances of even another Netscape are pretty unlikely and domestic video on your desktop isn’t really going to set the world on fire for the simple reason that most people couldn’t be bothered.

No?…then why the f–k do you accept the fact that they charge you $0.99 to take a full song that you paid for and cut it up and make it a ring tone?

She also couldn’t help reliving the night’s first honor. “Oh my God, that was just such a great way to start, and he’s such a sweet man,” she said of Henry Winkler, who received his first nod 42 years ago for Happy Days. “I was on a little movie of the week with him, and he was just so happy to be working and doing what he loved to do, and I said, ‘Please, instill that upon every other young actor that you come across.’”
