My web site’s down. Covad, the company that was providing the business-speed DSL line to the server, is bankrupt. Actually, they have been for a while. Brian (my friendly neighborhood sysadmin and friend with the DSL line) switched over to Verizon (yeah, I know they suck too…but they suck less than Covad) but apparently the […]
Read More Tip #252: Don’t use DSL service from a bankrupt companyI wanted to go out to the store today and get some real food…and just get out of the house, but it snowed again. Not much, but enough to make things white or wet. It killed any motivation I had to go outside. …and then my cable modem went wonky for large chunks of time. […]

Read More Green?Mike was here and we played a few video games and went out to lunch at Cabot’s. Good food. 🙂 At around 5:30, he left to go drinking with John Bligh and some of his college buddies. I watched the tape of this morning’s Transformers and Digimon episodes and now I’m bored. I guess there’s […]
Read More Games, lunch, and flightsMy brother’s coming down to Boston to go bar hopping with a friend tomorrow night. He said he’d come here tomorrow afternoon and hang out. I guess that means I have to clean up the place. It’s pretty cluttered since I’ve been busy cutting up foam for my Renamon costume. There’s also lots of papers […]
Read More What a mess!I went to the movies today. First time in way too long that I’ve actually been to a movie theater. …but I’m such a sucker for time travel movies that I had to go see The Time Machine. I liked it. I had seen the 1960s version a few weeks ago on The Sci-Fi Channel, […]
