Hmmm, sounds like we might be getting that geek colony together...  Home 
depot sells some nice drill extensions (long and flexible).

This is what I did to run my cable upstairs.  Thing is, if you follow 
the old carpenters rule, measure twice, cut (drill) once, you'll be in 
good shape.  I could have done a much better job on mine as I measured a 
number of times and that effort proved to be virtually exact.  I figured 
I'd drill about 6 inches into the garage ceiling so to insure I didn't 
drill into the dining room (a divorce action to be sure..).  The drill 
popped through exactly at my measure.  Further I had figured that if I 
had drilled against the closet wall, it would come through right at the 
garage wall, but I prefered the visibility in the garage over a lengthy 
divorce proceeding... :)

Heh, heh, Columbus Ohio for me, but done the circumnavigation of the 
eastern half of the USA so I can claim fault to multiple locations.
(Planning on rooting for Ohio State on Friday, Georgia tonight and am 
rooting for LSU right now..)
