  @ GnuPG & OpenSSH
  * update dns records for dsl.{savitzky.net,thestarport.org}
    Currently dsl.savitzky.net is the old dsl; dsl.thestarport.org the new
    sg is the new dsl on both.
  * add dsl-router to dns; note that it can't be used as a url.
  * unloaded mattresses from van to music room.  Retrieve doumbek
  * 4:00 walk: about 4 miles by Los Gatos Creek
  * 5:40 record YD's radio ad on zoom
  * dinner: corned beef, cabbage, potatoes (one-pot meal)
  = really do need static IP for the u-verse line
    everything goes to hell in a handbasket when the lease changes, 
    which appears to happen every couple of days.  :(
  : good news from Selkit
  * practice: Riverheart and Wheelin'
  * added refrain indent to Wheelin' in both tg and steve
  = aha: the dsl router can't deal with multi-homed devices or static IPs 
    it expects to have only one IP address on each port.  The external IP
    address hasn't changed, though, so things are good.  Or at least ok.
  * Olympics closing ceremony with Colleen
  * 10:30 bath; 11:ish bed; S=11382

Hmm. A pretty decent day, though with a lot of scrambling around the new DSL line. It turns out that the stupid DSL router really insists on having exactly one IP address on each port, and the one that it puts into "super-dmz" mode really has to be DHCP-controled. Otherwise all hell breaks loose, including the set-top boxes not working. Gaak!

A little work on music, but not as much as I really needed to have done. A good walk (see step count), and I made a good one-pot dinner of corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes.
