Okay, I just mentioned the lack of Wi-Fi everywhere, and here it comes, in Canada.  And the author of the article is talking about the Wireless Streaming Internet Receiver too!  I can't wait and at this pace I might not have to. 8:19:12 PM

Nokia is making the device I want.  I won't be ready for a little while yet, but that's ok we don't have Wi-Fi everywhere yet.  But once there is Wi-Fi everywhere this thing will be really cool. It is built on top of and with open source software so there is the potential for all kinds of applications to be created for it.  I can't wait.  The Streaming Internet Receiver. 7:30:36 PM

These quotes are from the movie Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events.  I stole them from a posting over on Widownet.  When I watched the movie the other day I was struck by the first quote.  It is about as true a description as I can some up with to describe what it is like to be a widower. "If you have ever lost someone important to you, then you already know how it feels, and if you haven't, you cannot possibly imagine it." ". . . it is a sad truth in life that when someone has lost a loved one, friends sometimes avoid the person, just when the presence of friends is most needed." "It is a curious thing, the death of a loved one. It's like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark and thinking that there's one more stair than there is. Your foot falls down through the air, and there's a sickly moment of dark surprise." 7:26:42 PM
