I Wish All Hotels Had This Standard…

If you click the image to see the higher resolution you can see that this panel has HDMI, VGA and composite inputs. It’s built into the desk and by following the cables I found that they all pass through to the flat panel TV in the room. I don’t have an HDMI or VGA cable [...]

View From Here: More from Jersey City, NJ

I walked around Jersey City some more last night and found it to be a very nice city with some spectacular views along the Hudson river. The merchant ship’s propeller was huge, taller than me in fact. I took the picture of the Jersey City Fire Department boat for my son, who is usually pretty [...]

View From Here: Jersey City, NJ

Home For 2 Weeks

I just finished up five straight weeks of travel – 21,6o8 air miles – to finally have a break at home for two weeks. I’ve got a combination of remote and local work this week but I’m taking next week off to be home with Tori & Ryan during their birthdays. With the amount I [...]

Speedtest – Econo Lodge, Richardson, TX

What I was thinking when I decided to stay here, I shall never know. This place redefines the term ‘Horrid’. /sigh/ The WiFi, as slow as it is, drops every 15 minutes. I’m about to resort to my Sprint EV-DO card, even though it’s only 1X coverage. The really sad part? This is the second [...]
