Cuddly was my other hamster. He outlived Tyler Palko by a few months. We got them a day apart from the pet store. I knew he was almost ready to go. He wasn’t eating too well the past few days. I found him the morning before he was stiff halfway out of his igloo. My son named him Cuddly when he was 4 years old. He lived about 3 years. He was a gray hamster.

I need to be an ipv6 specialist… we are about 2 years from running out of IPs in ip4. Read, read, read, write, blog, experiment… With wifi phones seeming to catch on and skype, why pay for a cell phone + contract? Phone companies are losing land line subscribers to VOIP companies like Vonage. Their cell phone businesses will go down the same way to wifi VOIP. Cell phones still have a big gap, but I think wifi will overtake cell phones in about 5 years. Why have voice networks anyway? Seems wasteful when data networks carry voice just fine.

I found my buddy Tyler P, the hamster dead yesterday in his igloo. He wasn’t looking too well the last few weeks. He wasn’t moving around much. He lived a long life, over 4 years, and I enjoyed taking care of him and feeding him. He is survived by his room mate Cuddly. We buried him at the tree line in the back yard and put a rock over his grave. I wish I had a picture of him to post, but he was a yellow and white hamster.

I did a ride starting this morning to Indiana. I took 36 West all the way to Indiana, then went south to Richmond, to a Harley dealer there. Then I returned home via I-70. It was nice to get in a little trip during my week vacation.

Got Vonage a couple of days ago and hooked it up. Very nice, and now I have no external phone lines that someone could connect to and make long distance calls to Japan. Long distance is unlimited anyway.
I am doing some mods to my motorcycle also. I am off next week, so I am hoping to spend some time riding and wrenching on it.
