Just a heads up, for over 10 years i have stored my online images and files on geocities then when they shut down I used godaddy.
Sometime in the next few months I am going to close my godaddy account. At that point all my online files and images will likely vanish.
I have resisted doing this...

I have my lab and office networked through a Linksys WRT1900ac v1.0 (has cooling fan)
My router is connected to the school's Ethernet and 400+ mb/s up/down is possible
I run DD-WRT firmware on the router with openvpn client enabled.
Enabling the VPN client slows my connection...
An idea of mine for a self cooling pot I had been tossing around for quite a few years but never got around to trying...

I will commit to two species being common or relatively common and one uncommon.
Do not expect fuzzy socks or giant sized divisions...
This year I'm being the hillbilly gourmet for the holidays, fixed/fixing lots of special treats for friends and family.
Back in June I got a big bunch of Madagascar vanilla beans and a couple big bottles of Svedka vodka and started some vanilla extract :-O
Under the extract is a bag of...
Wasabi
Thank you Santa ;-)
