Rain is starting west of Houston. Ought to be interesting.

@jaredbusch I wasn't at a mexican restaurant when I ordered it.

I was specifically told NOT to eat Mexican in Maryland. I got a strange look there once when I asked for chicken fried steak.

I thought you were not supposed to eat Mexican anywhere outside of Texas.

This is some sorcery. I need this for dealing with some people.

I picked up 2 720xd machines with 6 - 4Tb drives, dual Xeons, and 64G RAM on one of the specials a couple months ago. Don't have the exact specs in front of me right now. Total to the door for both was less than $4400. Nice machines. Added the extra warranty as well.

@dustinb3403 I remember doing something to get him back but it was a long time ago. I don't recall what it was though.

Back in the Motorolla Razr days, I had a friend send me over a ringtone that was supposed to be a Styx song. Being the prankster he is, I should have known better. The next day I was in the telco closet inside the county jail which was inside another office occupied by 2 ladies. I start hearing audio from a "porn video" as did the 2 ladies. It took me a few seconds to realize where it was coming from. I quickly muted it in my pocket and played dumb. Pretty funny to think about it now.

@rojoloco That is almost exactly how i do mine. I also plan to keep experimenting.

@rojoloco My favorite is the Old Fashioned with Knob Creek. I keep trying different variations. If you don't mind - What is your "recipe"? I have tried with just the bourbon, added a dash of water, club soda, orange bitters, regular bitters, etc. Still can't get it like one I've had in my favorite restaurant. I'm still trying though.

Best of luck, if you pull this off, you will be your own boss.

Thanks. My only concern is I will be trading a much shorter commute for more working hours. Will I even see my kids during the week besides when they are already in bed?

This should be a given with any startup in its initial years. My older 2 kids are getting to the age that I would be teaching them to mount and sync CPE's and properly seal outdoor grommets When the first storm comes through and knocks all your antennas off spectrum you will have help.

Don't forget the drip loop...

Same with ATT. They provide a 1U switch (Ciena) and 3U router (Cisco).

@scottalanmiller Make sure you get the full Katy Freeway traffic experience before you leave Houston....

@nashbrydges I'd probably live with it too to have Gb speed.

@nashbrydges seems like they would be able to put their equipment in bridge mode for you.

I've been using an ERL at home for a while and have them deployed at several business. Zero complaints and I recommend them all the time.

It has a look like Mac OSX

That is what I thought when I opened this thread.

I expose my kids to as much tech as I can.

@fateknollogee Windows and Mac. Linux machines available too.

I have a few machines with various Linux distros. I am willing to try something new.
