Eyepatch? Check. Parrot? Check.

So as I'm waiting for the nice man from Comcast to arrive, it turns out that there are a bunch 'o wireless networks near my place. Sitting at my PC, I spy six different (public) SSID's - of these, all but two are available without a password. And, of course, these two are the faintest of the bunch. The good news is that my Vaio gets signal from one of them (network: "linksys"), and I'm now able to (slowly) get my mail and (slowly) surf the web courtesy of some anonymous neighbor.

As Deets would say: "Arrrr...."
