Google have solved the "last mile" problem of fibre to the home, now they can run a high-speed internet link direct!

Google have also come up with a way to communicate with people who don't do email:

We've had it for a while and it works OK, but my wife complains about not being able to close the toilet lid.
I keep telling her... you can't expect perfection, remember that this crap is free.

I think the most scary one was when Google announced that they had been taken over by M$, I think that was back in their pre-IPO days.

I just recieved the TiSP in the mail.  Flushed it and ran it on a wifi router.  It is freakin awsome!

HELP!
I also received the package in the mail today.
However, while installing, Something Bad happened.
When flushing, the cable pulled my router down the sink. Any idea how to get it out there again?  

Thanks for any hint.
