Lynx in Alton Wolfeboro NH by Stephen Paul.

This is a picture taken by Stephen Paul. I do NOT know him and he did NOT send me this picture. It was sent by a 3rd-party that does know Stephen Paul. IF I am in breach of copyright I will take this down forthwith. I just think that this picture needs the visibility it can get on THIS blog.

There is a video too. It is on Facebook, but since I don’t have a Facebook account I have yet to see it!

Could this be the elusive Alton ‘Mountain Lion‘? From a distance I can see how you could confuse it with something else.

I gather the police are very anxious to get their sights on this Lynx. Gather that there has been increased police presence on Route 28 over the weekend. I believe that. Lots of police presence on Route 28 Friday and I met someone who had just got stopped on Route 28 yesterday, Easter Sunday.

Phone Power $60/Year For Unlimited VoIP Calls Seems Only Viable Option With Obihai Technology Now That Google Voice Is History.

I only saw this ‘Phone Power’ $60/year option, with OBi, for my OBi110, on Saturday.

Well it is $60/year than I am currently going and I, of course, foresee it going up over time — whatever OBi will claim.

Well that is in the MagicJack+ or NetTalk range. So I can’t complain much.

I did an online CHAT with their support over the weekend. Outstanding. I was impressed. So at least I know that they have ‘on the ball’ humans, on call, if I run into trouble.

I wish I can say that about Obihai. I get the distinct impression that they have packed up their tent and gone away. Scary.

I will keep you posted — of course. Stay tuned.

I File ‘Better Business Bureau’ (BBB) Complaint Against Cisco Linksys For Their Lying.

Cisco Linksys RE1000 -- piece of junk getting sledgehammer treatment.

Linksys RE1000 gets the treatment it deserves. I pulverize it with a heavy sledgehammer. It proved to be a piece of junk.

When I said that I will not let this rest, though we are only talking about $14.99, those that know me would have known: ‘I was not joking’. I will spend whatever it takes BUT I will get satisfaction. I am not having a pimply, 20 year old telesales jerk lie to me — not on a recorded line. Won this same case, as you will remember, against DirecTV, last year — though that was for slightly more. Do NOT lie about products and service. Not worth it. IF you have to lie, lie about bigger things.
