Heck, I don't really live in the country, and it still is a 15minute drive for
rice after 9 on a Sunday (there is a 24 hour grocery about 10minutes away, but
they close early on Sundays).

I dream of someday really living in the country.  Far enough out that hopefully
I litterally can't see my neighbors, and I own enough property to keep it
that way.  Hopefully the internet access thing will be better by then.
