Do a mondo backup and mail the disks to a friend.

I have a cheap computer in my unattached garage that I have a cat5
wire ran to. So basically I do offsite backups.

Another alternative is to put a machine at a friends house. Do an
rsync on your local lan to get the bulk of the data backed up to the
machine, and then lug it over and hook it up to their internet and
port forward port 22. Then you can use rsync with ssh via  the
internet for your backups. I do this with some small business clients.
