Great stuff, Jeff! One of my buddies came up with a solution to this problem that was MUCH less elegant than this. He followed his phone line outside to his backyard to the "box" where all the lines where coming from, attached a few lines that weren't being used, and ran them across his yard, up the side of his house, and into his bedroom window. It was an epic couple of days before the knock on the door came. And ironically, this all took place in Chesterfield County! Had no idea you lived here growing up, that's hilarious.

Have one on me. :) Your blog is a constant source of entertainment, information, and, at times, inspiration. Thanks for continuing to suck less!

I certainly applaud their effort, and would also be cautiously optimistic if it weren't for the lingering feeling that this is (like Bing, Silverlight, and Windows Phone) another desperate attempt to justify being the last one at the party. And I think you forgot something ... Windows ME. If that's not innovation, I don't know what is!!
