Scorched Earth, Pinging, and Myspace...

S~ Gang,
No Sh@t, there I was, finally had all my ducks in a row, was flying my first recon mission with Big Fred & Co., about 6 minutes out, just had my 109 trimmed to take the hand off the stick, crack the cockpit hatch a notch to light a Marlboro Light.....then it happened, the world froze, then went haywire, lost sight of my flight leader, then BAM!!! boot city, no sweat, log back on and try er again. This time I was on the Active, lights on cranking the ole Mercedes engine out, here comes a goob, landing on the outbound side. BOOM!!! booted again, then a third try, I notice a plane taxi foward, stop, and then backward, my mates told me it was a spike ping, well I got the courage up to sound totally like a rookie, and asked what was the main cause of this (hell, I really had not a clue!!) Well, come to find out, if household 6 is catching up on her Myspace, with the wireless hook-up that could cause it, not only that, but my 7 year old was playing some little susie purebred game and my step son has his DS hooked up online at the same time, so I guess I am King Ping!!!! Not to fear, next mission, the wireless will all of a sudden go down, so I can have the floor to fly!!!! Don't know how long that will last, but hey. So I should be good to go and look foward to the AVG campaign. I won't bring my buddies google [bot] and yahoo [bot] though, they seem to be here every time I log on to the AVG site.
