Lack of communication

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

We didn’t get back from the in-laws until late yesterday evening. With all the wedding stuff and all the various family members to visit with (They are a big, Southern family, there’s a bunch of them, and they all love to tell stories!!) I never even fired up the laptop all weekend. In fact, I did a quick scan of email last night before bed, which was the only online activity I had between leaving work Friday and arriving this morning.

Angela asked if I was getting jittery from lack of online activity, but you know, it actually felt good to be away for a time. 😉

    Via Eclectism this morning I see what may be the coolest use of Movable Type to date, at least in my opinion. The posting of circa 1985 Dead Milkmen Tour Stories! That’s defintely an addition to the news aggregator. While I missed them in Columbus in 1985 I did catch them at the Newport Music…

    Remember back over a month ago when we were having telephone issues, and after going through our equipment vendor and the telephone company for days, back and forth, they finally declared it fixed at about 8PM on a Friday night? (After calling me at midnight the night before to tell me that they think they…

  • Friday’s thoughts

    Yeah it’s Friday, and based on the amount of traffic downtown this morning, I’m guessing we’re one of the few places actually working today. Sigh. Taking a look around this morning: Scoble’s got some interesting insight about Microsoft’s decisions, unfortunately his permalinks seem to be having issues, so read the stuff from July 4 for…
