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.
Kids are having a blast at Disneyland. Both are asleep now getting ready for round 2 this evening. Crowds are light, getting lots of rides.
Getting ready for Disneyland day 1 with the kids. Everyone is VERY excited.
@dharmamike Glad to here that Ike didn't treat you too badly. Hope you're able to relax a bit this weekend.
@nerdguru Sorry, if all you ate were avocado and cucumer rolls, you still haven't had sushi.
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!
@strenholm Edgefield was great fun. The highlight of the trip really. Highly recommend for anyone traveling to PDX.
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.
At airport heading to Portland, OR with the wife and kids to visit friends & in-laws. Goodbye sun, hello rain.
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.
Six hours of waiting but i finally got called up. Heading to the courtroom.
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.
