.....bad news for fish. The colonoscopy came out totaly negative. No
tumors, polyps, or excessive scarring from the diverticulitis. So, it looks like I can break my ties with the medical community for awhile and turn my attention fully to my friends, Salvelenus Fontinalis, Salmo Trutta, Salmo Salar Sebago, and whatever the hell they call rainbows nowadays. Thanks to all of you who wished me well....it truly is appreciated. George, who is now posting from Verizon.net.....DSL rocks! New email addy to follow in a while. |

Here's a tip of the hat and a Budweiser toast to you and your colon. ;-) George, who is now posting from Verizon.net.....DSL rocks! Yeah, I used to think so too. When I first signed up with SBC DSL and got 380+ Kbps I thought I was rockin'. Then the sorority across the fence installed a Linksys WiFi that I can glom onto and VOILA ! 3,000+ Kpbs wireless, like double a T1, and now my poor DSL looks like a dog. -- Ken Fortenberry |

oups.com: George, who is now posting from Verizon.net.....DSL rocks! New email addy to follow in a while. Do yourself a favor at this transition point and take a web account to protect your new addy. Perhaps Verizon offer disposable accounts that point to your real account? Gmail is the balls. If you want an invite I got 50 of them. Great news on the test. I was in your area today well a bit north in Greenfield. Was going to fish the Millers on my way back, but it was a tea colored torrent. |

On the other hand, it's in my house, it's right here where I live. It's like if you get something you didn't order in the mail, you don't have to return it and you don't have to pay for it.

Disclaimer: I don't know jack**** about Illinois WiFi law. According to the article, the authorities don't know jack**** about the law, either. I think they're making it up as they go along, which could be all the more scary. Our office is within WiFi distance of the police department. They didn't completely secure *that* WiFi connection for several months, or so I've heard. . . It seems to me that these WiFi vendors would better serve their customers by implementing some basic security out of the box, like using the MAC address of the device as part of the encryption key until the consumers who buy this stuff secure it better themselves. -- TL, Tim ------------------------ http://css.sbcma.com/timj |
