And just when bacon was taking the world by storm … anything from bacon salt, to bacon beer, to bacon donuts! Although we’re still calling it the Swine Flu, and we refuse to change — the blog team has been sent home to spread economic stimulus, rather than airborne particulate.

Twitter Me This Batman: ‘Can One Really Get Too Many Tweets?’
April 27th, 2009 · Tags: Gadgets · Satire · Wi-Fi
One night I remembered the sordid details of some non-Freudian dream (darn it) in which I was tweeting status updates throughout the night. You do Twitter, right? (If so, feel free to follow @pingwifi): http://twitter.com/PingWiFi This I know. I have two psychics “following me” on Twitter … but I have to ask, why aren’t they […]
Are You Drinkin The Kinder/Gentler Ugly Kool Aid?

The meek are jumping the gun a bit, dontcha think? Let’s just cut to the chase. There are several tsunamis of insanity circling our globe at any one time, fueled by unintelligent media propaganda. The latest — Susan Boyle.
Tea Party Patriots Welcome Perry, Tough Texan Talk
April 16th, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Politics · Satire
Perhaps it is premature to predict that Texas Governor Rick Perry will be the next U.S. President, but it is interesting to note that 5,000 people showed up in Fort Worth yesterday to see him stump at LaGrave Field. That’s not bad — 5,000 people — four years before the election. So, will the First […]
Baseball; But No Water Dog & Government-owned Chevrolet
April 15th, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Satire · Sports · Wi-Fi
At the risk of being labeled subversive or put on a blacklist by the current administration, I am writing about one of the most American of America’s pastimes — baseball. I am sure such a wholesome activity is deemed unacceptable among the current socialist inner circle in Washington … but so be it.
Paperback Writer Shuns Lennon, Yet Fargo Makes The List

Life’s coincidences always amaze me. In the previous blog, I pontificated ad nauseam about rock bands, based on my meeting with a rock ‘n’ roller in Fargo, N.D. As ’70s legendary band names spewed out of me like so much rhetoric from a Chicago politician, I mentioned one somewhat obscure rock band. Wishbone Ash.
PingWi-Fi — Drumming Up Rock Legends Deep Purple To DimeBag
March 31st, 2009 · Tags: Arts · Cities · Satire · Wi-Fi
This is my second cross-country travel blog in search of all things Wi-Fi. The two trips are similar. But, if there is anything missing this time, it is the lack of opportunities to just sit and visit with locals. Yesterday was a nice exception. In Fargo I was driving around, snapping a few photos when […]
Would The Player Have Saved The Mother-In-Law?
March 28th, 2009 · Tags: Satire
Okay … I can’t hold my tongue any longer. I have to comment on the “news story” getting so much hype on the TV news channels. IF the reports I heard are correct, an NFL player was pulled over for running a red light and then driving recklessly to the hospital.
PingWi-Fi Headed To Fargo, Where Rivers Are Red, Safety Is Orange
March 27th, 2009 · Tags: Cities · Satire · Wi-Fi
So, what started out as Ping Dirty Jobs II became Will and Kent’s big truckin adventure. For my next wet and non-Wi-Fi project, my colleague and I are headed to Fargo, N.D. to take on the Red River … or actually to help out as businesses and residents clean up the aftermath from her swollen […]
Does The IQ Surpass The Bowling Score? — Dodging Red Balls
March 21st, 2009 · Tags: Politics · Satire
With only a couple of exceptions, every year I drive to the top of Texas for the annual beer fest and old-timers barbecue in my home town. I only partake of one of those delicacies these days, but it is still worth the five-hour drive to see old friends. Two years ago, I learned that […]
