I got denied by mainecare today. Mainecare is a free health payment program offered by the state. Unfortunately, as of March 1st 2005, they do not accept applications from anyone over the age of 21 (I’m 22) who do not have a disability. Darn, So I got the denial letter from them, and went back to the hospital, dropped off the letter, and completed application for Free Care, which is offered through the hospital. Hopefully this will be accepted. I really cannot afford a $2400 hospital bill. Especially since I have yet to do my taxes, and I am sure I will owe some money.

I finally got tired of clarkconnect 2.2 home being stupid. Every time Adelphia would go down and come back up, my router would fuck up the firewall script. I would have to restart the firewall to restore internet connectivity to my clients on my home network. Blah. Anyway, clarkconnect 2.2 was discontinued, so no more package updates were being released.
So I did a fresh install of clarkconnect 3.0 home edition and I am liking it so far. It uses the fedora product line, so the packages are more up-to-date. The firewall is much more robust, and administering it is a lot easier. The web page for the firewall is more like linksys/d-link/netgear home routers. It didn’t take very long to get it up and running. Only had to swap two network cables around, since I have three network cards in this router: one for WAN, one for LAN, and one for WLAN.

I have 50 gmail invites to give out.
Send a message to hawk82 at gmail dot com if you want an invite. No strings attached; I promise.
