John bites the bullet
I decided I might as well bite the bullet and upgrade my modem and router so today I ordered a Cradlepoint MBR1000 router and a USB760 modem from 3Gstore.com and had them shipped to FedEx in Las Cruces. I'll pick them up Tuesday or Wednesday and then we'll see if I can access my BroadbandAccess.
Let's hope so.

Shopping for sensation
The purest example of human shopping I know of can be seen by watching a child go through life touching absolutely everything. You’re watching that child shop for information, for understanding, for knowledge, for experience, for sensation. Especially for sensation, otherwise why would he have to touch or smell or taste or hear anything twice? Keep looking: Watch a dog. Watch a bird. Watch a bug. You might say the ant is searching for suitable food. I say he is shopping.
