Posted on June 2nd, 2010 by Toms Price Home.
Ever had a dropped call and futilely fumed while you hit redial over and over? Why does technology have to be so temperamental? Why can’t it just work, for crying out loud?

The resident techie in my house is not afraid to break a few electronic eggs to solve a network problem or build a new system. I, of course, am constantly tweaking the furniture arrangement or plants in the garden. Disruptive? Messy? Yes, but if we aren’t willing to reinvent, everything stands still. Rotary phones or harvest gold appliances might still be with us.
