Never heard that the internet was a series of tubes, sounds like an urban legend to me. If it was a series of tubes, why don't web pages fill up like a bucket of water?
Nope... web pages arrive all at once because they are delivered by dump trucks. Also computer games lag because sometimes not enough dump trucks are arriving, especially when stuff near you is under construction since the dump trucks are needed there. The internet is getting faster now though that work on the three gorges dam is finished, there were using like a million dump trucks there I heard!!
PS. Great responses, officially the funniest thread of the week for me.
Built a Large barn just for the horses
Drives an F-250 around incase horses need 2 be moved (still no trailer 1 year later)
Has a nice Deere 2520 (which is actually awesome) basically for the horses
Keeps a acre of sand (trucked in) free of grass using Round up
Fertilizes about 5 acres
Will not ride horse on road
Has to buy feed
Hmm, I've never owned a horse so all these factors hadn't occurred to me, that pretty much answers my question.
