I have to laugh as I write this. I’m sitting in a local Dunn Bros. coffee shop, doing some studying before my certification test later this morning. Dunn Bros has replaced Caribou as my favorite coffee shop because of the free Wifi they’ve got at most locations.

As I sit here and study, there is a woman sitting across from me with one of those nice Apple wide screen laptops. The problem is, she can’t get connected to the Wifi for the life of her! She asked me if I was connected, and I said “yeah, it just picked it right up.” She’s been moving around the coffee shop trying to find a better signal or something, it’s funny I guess sometimes an Apple doesn’t “just work.” It’s even more humorous because it’s a completely unsecured wireless network, something that you should be able to connect to by accident

UPDATE: The woman asked the staff for some help, so a cashier and a manager both came out to hack on her laptop to try and troubleshoot, I wish I had a camera
