bkerensaYeah chucks has good halibut... salmon... they make the best smoked salmon I have ever had19:28
bkerensaChuck's makes better smoked Salmon then the Reservations in Northern California imho19:28

MtBikerhttp://imagebin.org/22636219:34
bkerensammm19:35
nathwillraaw??19:35
nathwillbooo19:35
MtBikerlol well... it comes from the ocean raw yes :)19:36
nathwillwow, nice catch MtBiker19:36
MtBikeryeah I think with the cost of salmon and those being 22LBs and the cost is 21.99 a pound we have about a $480 dollar fish... we caught 28 of those so in a week we did $13,552 worth of salmon.19:39
bkerensahuh19:55
bkerensamy mom called frantic her acer netbook is not connecting to the web19:55
bkerensa;p19:55

bkerensa:D19:55
tgm4883bkerensa, is the netbook even worth that much?19:59
bkerensatgm4883: no20:08
bkerensatgm4883: and now that I have done some troubleshooting over the phone it seems like her hardware is fine20:09
bkerensabasically it seems like DNS or maybe a proxy configuration20:09
bkerensashe can connect to AT&T mobile but when she launches IE she cant browse the web and gets a "This webpage could not be displayed" error20:09

bkerensa=/20:13
MaskilPDXbkerensa, She won't do ping, or nslookup?20:13

bkerensaMaskilPDX: not over the phone :P she is going to bring it to me20:14
tgm4883bkerensa, because "insert weird app for doing random mom thing"20:14
