Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Whats better a
motorolla 221 ( I think netopia r) or a linksys etherfast cable/router Im paying for 10mb but the test just said I was getting 2.5!!!

we used a linksys, liked it, but that is not the whole problem. who is your internet supplier?

when we were on with time warner, roadrunner, we paid for 10 and would only get 2 at times. we had them to the house and they attached their laptop and claimed it was our pc. well we were very upset because a level 4 tech told us it was their problem not our pc.

when we switched to fios, we are getting more than what we are paying for. we have two pcs going at the same time and two members in the house on the xbox at the same time. no complaints with fios here. we will never go back to time warner again. what bs they gave us. at least we knew they were bs ing us.

good luck, the problem with time warner, a number of people share the grid at the same time. so the more people on the less your speed is.

hope this helps.

Smilie

A friend of mine sent this to me, I wanted to share it with my friends here,

Finnegan The Squirrel

The Moral of This Story is the Best Part!!!

Debby Cantlon , who plans to release Finnegan, the young squirrel, back into the wild, bottle-fed the infant squirrel after it was brought to her house.

When Cantlon took in the tiny creature and began caring for him, she found herself with an unlikely nurse's aide: her pregnant Papillion, Mademoiselle Giselle .

Finnegan was resting in a nest in a cage just days before Giselle was due to deliver her puppies.Cantlon and her husband watched as the dog dragged the squirrel's cage twice to her own bedside before she gave birth.

Cantlon was concerned, yet ultimately decided to allow the squirrel out and the inter-species bonding began.

Finnegan rides a puppy mosh pit of sorts, burrowing in for warmth after feeding, eventually working his way beneath his new litter mates.

Two days after giving birth, mama dog Giselle allowed Finnegan to nurse; family photos and a videotape show her encouraging him to suckle alongside her litter of five pups.

Now, Finnegan mostly uses a bottle, but still snuggles with his 'siblings' in a mosh pit of puppies,rolling atop their bodies, and sinking in deeply for a nap.

Finnegan and his new litter mates, five Papillion puppies, get along together as if they were meant to.

Finnegan naps after feeding.

Finnegan makes himself at home with his new litter mates, nuzzling nose-to-nose for a nap after feeding.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all get along

like Finnegan and the gang?

MORAL OF THE STORY : Keep loving everyone, even the squirrelly ones!

here is a super test site if you want to know your internet download and upload speeds
just click on the triangle (pyramid) in the center

it will not try to download anything to your pc like others do and it wont ask you to sign up for anything
Hey Gary,,,I ran the test and it says I am at 42 Ms on the ping and 0.94 on down load and 3.88 on upload then I ran it again and it now says ping is 10 ms and download is at 1.05 and up load is at 4.06....is that good or bad?

Quote from Gilcher :
It depends on what speed you pay for. If you are paying for a 10meg connection, then that is good. If you are paying for 15meg connection then that is about average. Anything more and you need to call your ISP and complain!
Great ping time tho! Ping is basically the time it takes a website to know you want to see it.
Thank you...I believe it is the 10meg I pay for, guess I don't really need much more.Smilie
