[HamWAN PSDR] What are you talking about?

[KL7WM at aol.com]

My wife asked me what I wanted for Christmas and I said
 
"I wanted 
a 10 inch blueberry Ice Cream pie or Jelly Bean 
with a Wifi Raspberry pie and a MicroTik on my pogo with 1 TG Touro  USB 
3.0 cloud
and a cat 6 poe into a Ubiquite's titanium 2M or 5.8  bullet 
into the NW mesh network so I can access the high ring HanWan  link for 
Internet."
 
I told her we could get all this for under $400 and she said "What  are you 
talking about?" 
 
I tried to explain that I was the President of a high tech amateur radio  
club and all the guys in the digital committee were doing this. but she  just 
kept shaking her head.
 
Is the problem a technological diversion or that I didn't  properly prepare 
her for this technological jump or timing?  I asked  for my Christmas 
present when my wife was talking her sister in South  Carolina, on her IPad mini 
with "face time".  Her sister retorted  a responds by saying, "I didn't 
understand a thing he  said. We just got electric lights and in-door plumbing 
last  year."
 
Well, it still has been a good Christmas.  I'm eating coal  dark chocolate 
triangles from my stocking as I write this email from my new  Note 3.  I 
still don't have my cloud up.
 
Daniel Stevens, KL7WM
