Memorial Day

It's Memorial Day, folks! If you have not been to a parade or ceremony this weekend, YOU'RE WRONG!

I Love My Puppy!

Helmut and me hanging out on a great day!

PS - I totally should have stayed outside with my dog instead of fighting with my comcast ftp server... Apparently I have a quota. So much for the media files I wanted to upload...

This is why my job is important

I received this email from XM today...

XM Service Update As many of you know, XM customers have experienced service outages or significantly degraded service since Monday mid-morning, May 21. We quickly identified the problem and are working hard to return to our normal levels of service. The problem occurred during the loading of software to a critical component of our satellite broadcast system, which resulted in a loss of signal from one of our satellites. We expect normal service to resume midday today (eastern daylight time). XM apologizes for any inconvenience this has caused. For updates, please go to http://www.xmradio.com. In the meantime, you can enjoy many of our music channels on XM Radio Online (http://xmro.xmradio.com) if you are close to a computer. Again, we regret any inconvenience for not having your XM Radio service fully available.

Retrial Denied

I sort of figured this would happen, but you know we had to try it. It is good news that we will be allowed to bring up the Supreme Court's ruling as part of our appeal.
