Kevin's musings

Now that my laptop is all seeming stable again (lots of suspend/resume
cycles and it’s been up 8.5 days now) I need something new to
tinker with. So, I decided to look at upgrading my wireless
network here at home. The Linksys wireless routers run linux and
apparently geeks have taken the linksys firmware and
really really beefed it up
So, after looking at that and the client adapters that are supported
by the prism 54 site. I went
and ordered one of the Linksys routers and a 3com 3CRWE154G72
card. We will see. It sounds pretty cool, and getting 54Mb/sec
would be nifty at home. If it works as well as it sounds, I
might have to pick up another of the linksys boxes for
traveling.

Since it was the first saturday of the month me and twyla and kurt
were down at the petsmart manning a table for
Colorado Greyhound
Companions. We had a great time as usual. The dogs just
eat it up. I wonder how usefull it is for the group
sometimes. Almost everyone we talk to says something like “Well,
we have 5 dogs or I would be interested in greyhounds”. Since we
are talking to an already pet enabled audence they aren’t as
likely to need another one. On the other hand, people at
petsmart are likely to spread the word to others. In any case
it’s good to get the dogs out and have them petted for several
hours.

Looks like tomorrow I get a new foster. Merlin the blue brindle.
