end of the year speed test

It’s near the end of the year and I haven’t done or posted a speed test from my new home.

the catch and release plan.

Current Mood: ConfusedSo here is the catch to moving back to California. I need to find a roommate in order to be fiscally OK with paying the rent related expenses. Consider this, a 1 bedroom in the same community would have costed me roughly $1300-1500/month versus the $1665/month for a two bedroom and [...]

Interview with a spine surgeon part 2; General Update.

Current Mood: AngryI just heard on the ABC TV nightly news that Huntington Beach, my hometown, is banning public nudity.

Marriot Residence Inn Speed Test #2

I am again staying at the Costa Mesa Marriot Residence Inn while here in California. Quite bored, and with a lack of anything better to do, it’s speed test time.
Apart from staying in a different building, the main difference this time is I brought my La Fonera with me so I wouldn’t need to [...]

Marriott Residence Inn Costa Mesa Internet Speed Test

From having to re-login to their captive portal every 24 hours, even if your in the middle of something, drag ass slow access to my dad’s work VPN. OK, so I think the [...]
