"Whereof one cannot toot, thereof one must remain untooting."

As part of this, I'm able to return my Verizon-branded router (which was needed for their TV service) and switch to my own. Gonna flash OpenWrt onto a basic Netgear AP I purchased and play with that.

Finally dropped my FiOS TV subscription. Between that and some other tweaks, I've cut my monthly FiOS bill from $210 to $70. Not bad.

(I've switched to (a) an antenna and (b) just not watching much TV at all.)

This show imagines an oldies station in an alternate universe where all of these songs were big hits of the 60s. I even tried to do a Cousin Brucie-style voice, but couldn't keep up the schtick for the whole hour. I'm just too real, I guess.
