Happy Birthday to my wonderful 3 year old daughter. We’ve been playing up a storm this morning and enjoying every second. Well, every second that Daddy is playing the games correctly. Apparently the rules change randomly and suddenly and I’m too dense to notice that’s not the way you doooooo it. [...]

My connectivity issues have gotten so bad that I usually only have about 20 minutes at a time to do everything I have to do. That’s barely enough time to check my email.
Comcast is supposed to be coming today and fixing the problem (weak downstream signal,whatever that is) this afternoon.

Thanks to Hurricane Emily and the corporate slothfulness of Comcast, I have had limited or no Internet connectivity for the past few days. I have been trying to sneak in what I can when a window of opportunity arises.
The upside of that is that I have been making some good progress on the [...]
