Technology is moving so fast it'll make your head swim, in fact it's
moving so fast it'll probably make you drown if you didn't pay
attention when you were taking swimming lessons. I have to admit, I get
caught off guard and this is by choice my vocation.... It's what dreams
are made of, you pick up that magazine in the grocery store, or you
order free issues on the internet, and you lean over to your
significant other and say "huh, look at that honey, look what it can
do", and she looks you in your eyes, and says "oh, that's wonderful,
and what else can it do? Oh, honey, you're going to do that for us?
Wow! I can't wait, what? It also dims the lights? Wow and look at that
tv".....Not really... Instead she says "yeah, sure, are you
gonna finish eating or is it alright if I take your plate?", and you
try to get her as enthusiastic as you and you grab her by the wrist,
because you finally get it. This isn't like when the great idea of
taking the life savings and becoming a foreign exchange trader. This my
friends is, is... Can you hear it? It's the call to all men who love
gadgets, but were afraid that it wasn't possible to make a living at
it. But there's people in that Village, hell, it's a city now, it's
thriving, people are not just making livings, they're raising families,
they're buying cars, they're, they're having fun... So, you say to her"
no really honey, this is so cool, and you know what?", and she all of a
sudden comes to life, and you see a twinkle in her long extinguished
fire. and oh my mistake that's just the reflection of the refrigerator
blub, but nevertheless you press on, "no, look honey, if we had that
done, we could,blah, blah, blah,wah, wah, wah". That's all she heard,
and all you heard was "sure go ahead"... What!? ok folks you
can stop reading ,we've got a glitch a serious malfunction... We've got
to go work this out,so stay tuned, we'll be back in just a minute...
Now, what was it that she said, "sure, go ahead?", do you realise the
last time you heard her say that? The last time she said that nine
months later... Oh never mind different story, but I must be, I must
have... I must, Oh thank you honey, thank you..... You go get
that list, that list that your children make every year for santa,
except your's is embossed with your name on it with the company logo,
and it's got the structured wire enclosure that you've read about so
many times, and the ethernet module you've been pining away about in
your pipe dreams, "yes, sir whole house audio, who said a mans got to
dream when you can live it out right here" That's right technology is
alive and well right here in your home, in your heart and most
importantly beause your wife said so, and she understands that a man
has to be a man... Oh, honey I love you.... So, now you decide
to put the ball into play... screech... bump,bump, tumble,
flop-a-da-flop-a-da... You just cut a hole in the wall to put your
newly arrived structured wire enclosure but, what about all those
wires.. all of a sudden your 2,500 sq ft home looks like it's 10,000 sq
ft triple story multi unit dwelling... But you've been studying all
those magazines and read everything you could on the internet, hell you
even swear you caught a glimpse of the end of the internet once, but
you press on.. thats right you press on 1 213 and you finish pressing
the buttons and wait for someone to answer... You call for some help
and you hire some one to come help do the job. That's right you said,
Help, not come and do the job, hell you can do the job, you just need a
little help, a helper that's all. Oh boy this is gonna be a
blast and they show up with tool belts, and tools that go
ggggrrrrrrr.... and what's that? You've got to go to work, but...
but... that's right sir, we do this for a living... Damn... what's that
honey? Oh, yeah, we're almost done, wait till you see what I did... read more
