Free Wi-Fi

Being on the road to Chicago, I was away from my home Wi-Fi.  So as not to disappoint my dear readers, I was ever on the alert for places with free Wi-Fi.  This being 2012 and all, they were EVERYWHERE.  My hotel, shopping centers, restaurants - heck, even a skanky taco stand had one.

But my in-laws?  Not so easy.  One, living in an apartment building, had cleverly found the Wi-Fi of a clueless neighbor who had neglected to administer a password.  Great plan - until said neighbor mysteriously decides to turn OFF the Wi-Fi.  The result?  I was, as they say, "sucking wind."

So, with tears in my eyes, and thinking only of my dear readers, I zipped over to another in-law's place (there are quite a few of these in-laws) who said they had Wi-Fi.  They did!  Unfortunately, someone had set their system up for them and the password, embedded in the system, was lost at the bottom of some forgotten file.

Aah, but there's always Mr. Taco.  Not so good for the waistline, but the Wi-Fi was free!
