And there's a home game tonight on campus, which means people will be grilling and drinking and having themselves a good 'ol time RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF MY OFFICE. Bah.
You may have a problem if…

Coughing up for wi-fi (or are we spoiled in Atlanta?)

There's currently a huge debate on Lifehacker regarding a hack to access free wi-fi at Hartsfield-Jackson. Currently, wi-fi at the airport is pay-access. This is somewhat normal in my experience, but living in Atlanta, it is rather odd considering the number of free wi-fi spots within the city. In fact, there are so many free hotspots in Atlanta that I've even had to refuse to work with vendors and businesses that don't provide them. I mean really, a hotel in Midtown CHARGING for wi-fi on top of the room price? Fuck. off.
Of course there's the other personal pov, as I'm originally from Orlando (alternatively known as "what's wi-fi? ya mean that thar internet needs no wires? well garsh dang it!"). The last time I checked, free wi-fi was only available in "certain" hotel lobbies and one (yes, one) coffee shop in Winter Park. Of course you could always succumb to the T-Mobile Hot Spot and get ass raped pay $10, or break your contract, pay the fees, and buy a $400 iPhone and use it at Starbucks. I guess having my crackberry comes in handy at those times. So yeah, I know how suck it is to have to pay for access.
Not to come off sounding like I have zero morals, though. I've got, like, 4 or something! I do understand that getting something for free which you should pay for is theft. Yes. Promise. But what if it's something that should be free to start with? [insert big debate here.] Does Hartsfield really need the money when I'm still paying $5 for a bottle of water anyway? Or, is this some giant conspiracy to get as much money as possible since I'm delayed every.fucking.time. at ATL? Come on Shirley, say it ain't so!
Bitches.
I may not be a meteorologist…
