Cox Communications – after 5 years there’s still a problem
This was my posting on the Cox forum earlier today Cox HSI disconnects and won’t reconnect — long-term problem (5+ years) – Internet Forum – Internet Forum – Cox Support Forums. I copy it here because I manage this website and I think they will delete it because of the bad image it sets out. This is memoir about my Cox HSI ordeals. If it is too long to read, I apologize – skip to the end and I summarize, otherwise read through it just to figure out my level of frustration. I reconnected my Cox HSI because DSL just […]
Live From The Field
Am I the last polite person in the world? Everyday I encounter either live and in person or through radio/Internet/TV people in the act of being rude. Now I don’t mean the ‘rude’ people like to say someone is being when they are doing something you don’t like. That just usually follows some stupid thing that someone else did that caused the ‘rude’ thing to occur. Rude encompasses a lot of behaviors but the type of rude I mean is when one person is speaking to another and the listener jumps in halfway to comment or finish the person’s thought […]
Family addition
The addition to my family – a puppy mastiff. Other than the normal quirks of a puppy he is larger than a 4mo puppy.
A fun exercise
A fun exercise Am I usual or unusual ?!? 2% or 98% … This is strange…can you figure it out? Are you the 2% or 98% of the population? Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD! * Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow. * There’s no trick or surprise. * Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can! * Again, as quickly as you can but don’t advance until you’ve done each of them … really. Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something.) Think […]

Google leads with great technology portfolio
Like everyone else I am increasingly more and more in awe of Google‘s technology portfolio. I remember trying Babelfish a few years back and though it did present a translation of what I pasted in the translate box it had limited implications – like when you need to ask “how do you say…?” in this or that language. But I had a need to translate a website from German to English and remembered Google’s translate feature. It does much more than Babelfish’s paste a word/phrase -> translate thing. I pasted the URL of the webpage and clicked the link on […]
Economic problems not too easy to solve
Because this is a presidential election year, I am hearing so much of the usual rhetoric about why I should vote for this guy over that one. Something I not only expected to be bombarded with but I knew would be a major topic of discussion would be the economy. Of course the economy is not where it should be – and because President Barack Obama said back before the start of his presidency that if he couldn’t get things changed in four years no one in Washington would be there next election cycle. Well things have not changed so […]
Drive in pretty good but nothing beats air conditioning
The drive it from Saturday night was pretty decent. Unfortunately, the Las Vegas night did not do the usual temperature drop. This night 100-degrees persisted well into the 11pm hour. Only rarely did the warm air blow but even then it was only beareable. Prolonged exposure to these temperatures is dangerous so it won’t be something I do again for quite a while – probably in the fall. So back to the air conditioned cinema I go for the next movie. Double feature you will be missed… 🙂
