It’s funny to finally have returned our Comcast equipment – in PA, Comcast is synonymous with cable; not only that, we’re of the Philadelphia area – every day on the way to work I see Comcast’s shiny new tower. Such is the power of that company in the city; Philly gave many tax breaks to [...]
It’s kind of difficult to follow up on Lisa’s entry; it practically feels like making light of a dire situation but! we’ve lived through much worse, so I don’t think the bravado is false. Onward. Ingenuity: I’ve set up a machine that allows the Leesie to surf the web over WinXPs RDP. It works surprisingly [...]
Irony n. from the Greek ????? (eiron), is a literary or rhetorical device, in which there is a gap or incongruity between what a speaker or a writer says, and what is generally understood (either at the time, or in the later context of history)… From Wikipedia So a mini war broke out in the [...]
I’m lousy – lousy I tell you – at being a stereotypical nerd. I don’t have any depth in programming experience, I haven’t seen all the star wars movies, I don’t know how to play Dungeons and Dragons, (ironically, even) I’m not very good at math (though, strangely I had the highest grade in my [...]
I’ve been driving Lisa batty lately. The latest is my constant ranting on the Bear Sterns crap-fest that started last Friday. Here is Forbes’ FAQ on the subject. Let me explain it in a nutshell. Bear Sterns made some terrible investments. Extremely terrible investments. When the subprime mess started rearing its ugly head this time [...]
So, if you perused the baby blog you’ll see that we traded the tC. Most people seemed blindsided by this even though I hinted at it to some other people. It may very well have been that I cried wolf about trading vehicles so often that no one believes me anymore. In fact, even though [...]
Kind of like “Link Day”, this is one of those all day updates. This is partially due to the fact that Lisa no longer has full access to the intartubes, a problem I hope is only temporary (in that, she’ll be transitioning elsewhere). Alright, let’s begin at the top. FIOS is fast. Extremely fast. However, [...]
Sometime in January, FIOS became available in our area. I was shocked, since Verizon has been cherry picking neighborhoods, preferring to start in the upscale neighborhoods and work their way down. Mare and Michael haven’t had the FIOS rollout yet, but Jaya started receiving flyers (Ardmore) sometime in February. As luck would have it, the [...]
Dictated by Nora, transcribed by Lisa. I had no part, I swear. Ah baba da ba ha LA! DOOOOOOOOOO! Aba? Ba? Mama ma, da! Haaaa DA! Uhh, wait a minute. Mommy says that I’m not allowed to speak Noranese, ’cause you people don’t understand it. I tried to tell her that you should learn, but [...]
So, my absence has a story, a potentially boring story, but it’s a story nonetheless. Firstly, I wanted to hold off until a guest entry was posted, but the guest enteree has decided s/he is too good for a deadline, so it is in suspended animation possibly forever. As I understand it, it’s just a [...]
