The dog ate my internet

I'm sure many of you were absolutely crushed and devastated I didn't post anything today, and for that I apologize.

In my defense, I've got a pretty good excuse: I've been offline since shortly after waking up this morning. According to Embarq (my DSL provider), all of southern Las Vegas had an outage today.

So in case you were wondering why I hadn't made any posts today -- that's why. Don't worry, I haven't become a McCainiac or a Clintonite!

Although it really sucks being without the internet, I did manage to use the time offline somewhat productively, putting the finishing touches on a new video that I think you all will like. I'll probably be posting that tomorrow (Tuesday).

(I also saw the key parts of the Mariners' victory of the Rangers, and grabbed dinner with a friend in town for the wireless show, so I guess you can do some things without connectivity!)

Now I have the daunting task of catching up on everything I missed today. I'll do it triage style so I can get some sleep tonight.

Regular posting will resume tomorrow, and just to reduce the risk of another outtage, I decided to order cable modem high-speed service as a backup.
