In case of local network failure I did always try to connect to "Linksys" and "default" first--I figured those are less likely to be password protected.
Or if they are, the passwords tend to be "password" (or "p@55word" etc).

External drives are either Tek Jansen or BSG characters (except for Miss Edith, the first external hard drive I ever bought for Dru the G5).
My iPod is Miss Edith, both for Dru's doll and for the Lonely Doll books.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I feel like my neighbors will judge my network.
I promise I only judge the networks named "Linksys" or "default". If you named it "Digital Underground" I would think you were utterly awesome based on your network name.
Totally! At my old apartment, one of the networks was "pimpsdomain." Unfortunately it was secured, because I always wanted to be in pimpsdomain.

How do we feel about pickled asparagus on a sandwich?
My first reaction is to wrinkle my noise and say, "Ew." I'm not wild about pickley things. My second reaction is that it depends on the sandwich.

I named my tivos "bedroom" and "living room". Boring. It always amuses me when I have my laptop on and I'm in the "now playing list", the tivo tells me that it can see "Ripper"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I could name it kprinkle
I think you should. And I think Kat should name her home network kprinkle too. Flood the world with a wave of kprinkle.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have renamed my network, and then signed back onto it. I am not a technological dunce after all.
I just cancelled plans for tonight because I no longer feel like working, and yet have more work to do. Bah!
