My mom is from NY, where many people pronounce the word Aunt like the insect ant. However my dad is from the New England area where they say Aunt like "ahnt". When I was younger, I heard both pronunciations. I decided that I liked...

rrw410 Hi Ann, Thanks for responding! :) I'm not upset about getting teased, it's just an observation... I like saying it the way I do, but it's interesting to find out how others pronounce Aunt. I've heard it almost equally both ways! =) Have a great day!

rrw410 That's very interesting... I have an American accent but I say "ahnt" simply because my dad is from Massachusetts, where they often pronounce Aunt that way. I decided that I liked pronouncing Aunt like that because "ant" is how the insect is pronounced! LOL

rrw410 Yeah, dialup doesn't work well with multiple people online at the same time. And it would be impossible to play World of Warcraft with a dialup connection! :)

rrw410 Portable high-speed USB modems sound wonderful! Wireless is great, but you can only use it at home. It would be great to be able to get an internet connection from anywhere in the world. Are the portable usb modems more expensive than wireless?

rrw410 Oh my goodness! With dialup we couldn't receive call on our landline, either! People started complaining when they could never get through on our home phone! I'm so glad we have wireless now.

rrw410 LaDeBoheme: I'm so sorry :( I know how you feel. I just got wireless, and I had a hard time using mylot with Dialup, too. Dialup stinks. Hopefully highspeed internet will soon become available in your area.

rrw410 I agree... I'm very happy with my wireless connection! Dialup is indeed a huge headache, especially if you want to download videos! Broadband sounds even better! :)
