Title: Technologically Challenged

I'm not really going to be ABSENT, but I may not be as active as usual for a while.
My favorite public wireless network has aparently become a private one, so I only get internet inside and my room's outside so... Yeah.
I built an antenna the other day out of my old cell phone and alluminum foil, and that even worked for a while, but when I tried to make it bigger to increase my speed I screwed it up and... yeah. Meh.
Anyway, like I said, not absent, just less frequent until I figure something out.

This is just a thumbnail, you can click it and get a huge pic.

PS. No, it's not a doll on my desk. It's a voodoo doll. There's a difference. I can back this up too. You can see one of the pins on it's left leg. (Actually, it's on it's right leg, but it's to your left) Most of the pins are in the back of it's head on "Lose mind". And yes, the Einsteing statue is, indeed, a bobble-head.
