[Hannah]: Best pic of the week
We spent a whole week without internet when we moved. This, of course, was a national tragedy, particularly as there was no poachable wireless nearby. Well, worse - there were a *couple* of wireless networks that didn't even give us one bar, but they sometimes worked. Sometimes. We quickly developed routines, like the superstitious pigeons, trying to figure out what would get us a strong enough whiff of these weak wireless signals to check our email. Here is the CA out in the front yard at about 11 PM, leaning his laptop against a metal pole that he believed improved his signal.
Later in the week we discovered that a particular wall in our house seemed to be taking the signal in, and if we leaned our laptops up against the wall, we'd get a little signal. We are lame.
