Bailout bill passes House. If I'm not mistaken, $700 billion was the exact cost of the first Death Star. Keep an eye on Paulson & Bernanke.

Thunderstorm in San Diego. A rare occurrence, but always a treat when it happens.

Back from my local, big box electronics store with a new cable modem. Hoping this solves my connectivity woes. The joys of working at home!

Let me get this straight, Oosah.com will give me 1 terabyte of free online storage, but my company's IT dept still limits my inbox to 100MB.

While watching TV last night I saw a commercial _PROMOTING_ high-fructose corn syrup. I thought it was a joke. Sadly, no. http://is.gd/2iHI

@Ihnatko Perhaps dead trees aren't an appropriate persistence strategy when writing about fast-moving technology.

Just discovered that Amazon issued me a credit for the S3 service outage in July. Good on you Amazon!

3 days off the net and now I've got 1000+ unread items. Pretty sure this is what the "mark all as read" button was invented for. Feels good!

Back home from PDX. Had a nice time, but glad to be back in sunny San Diego - especially glad the kids will be in their own beds tonight.

If I'd known that Visual Studio SP1 was going to take an hour to install I wouldn't have started it in the middle of my work day. Ugh!

@shanselman One legacy of my 7th grade typing class is that I'm hardwired to double-space after a period. Been trying to break the habit.

Off for another fun-filled day at the San Diego Hall of Justice. Should know this morning whether I'm going to be on the jury or not.

We've been given a 2 hour lunch break from sitting around in the jury lounge. Now looking for someplace else to sit around for 2 hours.
