Also seeing Google DNS fail on a Residential CenturyLink Connection, but
way over in Omaha NE. Appears to be intermittent.


$ dig google.com @8.8.8.8

; <<>> DiG 9.16.1-Ubuntu <<>> google.com @8.8.8.8
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached


$ ping 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.
^C
--- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 4101ms
