Musical Collection… part 15

For my 15th post in the Musical Collection series, I thought I’d do something a little special (Sher… get ready!). Here I am including videos to several different arrangements & instruments used to play the same theme of Super Mario Brothers! Enjoy!








(feel free to cut this one off… it’s a bit lengthy)




and lastly, I include just a really random thing to be used as an instrument…
I’m pretty sure I tried this in school, too!


Until next time….

A New Bridge Built

So this past week I was able to create a wireless internet bridge from one building with internet access to our new residence with no real viable prospect of internet access. The story goes like this. We moved into a farmhouse just 200m from the YWAM location. We contacted Lattelekom and they said, “You’ll have to pay 1500 Ls to get internet to your house” (that’s about $2700 USD or 2100 Euros) and we said, “Uh uh!”

So, with the help of DD-WRT & a couple of Linksys WRT54GL wireless broadband routers, I created a link that my wife & I are both using even now. Here’s the line of sight:

The red circle is where the YWAM building is where the internet is originating.
