Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.

Bad Router Omen
I've been having problems with my D-Link DI-524 wireless router. My connection from my powerbook drops, it reboots and I can't do WPA encryption to the AirPort Extreme. So I did a little research and went out to Best Buy and bought a Linksys WRT54GC. I got it home, unpacked it and wanted to install it. No manual, just a CD to run. I remember seeing something about a firmware update so I went to the linksys web site to check. It was down for maintenance, at 2:30 in the afternoon on a wednesday. Not a good sign.
