Tonight was interesting... My wife reminded me to re-enable the security on the wireless router (after having disabled it for some visitors last weekend) and when the thing rebooted it wouldn't connect. Spent about an hour on the phone with Qwest tier 1 support guy (Russian/Eastern European accent reading from script; name was not Peggy, thank God) and got nowhere.
Then all of a sudden the power goes out in the whole neighborhood. Computer, DSL modem, phone, lights all go out at once, and I'm rescued from having to deal with not-Peggy, at least for a while.
I break out the candles and pour a glass of Obsidian Stout, and relax a bit before bed, and kinda waiting for the lights to come on. They come back about half way through bottle #2, so I go back to the computer to see if I can rectify things on my own. Reset the modem back to factory defaults, and after a couple of tries, get it working again WITHOUT not-Peggy's help. Halleluia, pass the wine.
What I'd just LOVE to know is why the heck changing the wireless settings would do anything to prevent the flippin' Actiontec modem from connecting to the network. Of all the cockamamie goofball things, fer cryin' out loud.
Yup, that was some good beer. G'nite.
Anyhow, . . . he has started standing on the left side of the house these past few weeks and it's making me uneasy. He's onto me noticing and screwing with my psyche, I just know it.
62 pages on tires? How about a list of stock sizes, PSI required and keep them away from nails. There, I said it in less than a page.
