What happening here? Is my firewall not seeing the internet?

That's how it appears. Or at least it "thinks" it can't see the Internet. The connection attempts on port 443 (HTTPS, or SSL connection) is timing out. That means either the remote site is down, or your personal connection is unable to reach the remote site.
Since this is happening for both Snort and Emerging Threats rules, I would think it unlikely for BOTH remote sites to be down at the same time. Thus that would point the finger over to your end of the connection as where the problem is likely to reside.
