[sudo-sys] Cable Internet for Deconstruction Event

[David Keenan]

Gotcha. Cool.

Before, the coax line was coming through the window.. It was just hanging
out in the frame. Perhaps it just fell out of its previous place in the
window frame, I'm not sure.

Thanks for mentioning the leak - was this last week? It's important when it
rains to identify where the leak is at the time (since it is pretty hard to
tell later) and john will send the roofer right away to fix it..
