Also, requests to double power (or more) are being submitted in a desperate attempt to deal with the VHF problem for DTV.

It's not like I predicted this, or anything... :)

Observations 23 JUL 2009

I've managed to achieve something recently:

I've given up on my daily intel briefing for a month or so. I seriously doubt future historians will be searching archives of my blogs. After looking at a collection of saved bookmarks, I decided it wasn't worth the effort.

Max had a negative liver test result. His arthritis is worse. I've had to up his pain meds. Further procedures would be both pointless, and expensive.

He's still running around, and happy on his walks.

My friends had a nice birthday party for me. The cards given to me were priceless...

I've managed to read quite a bit in the last month. I definitely prefer paper to computer screens. Even with my new bifocals, the screens are murder. But the amount of material online is amazing, some of it of surprisingly good quality.

I may even start putting my material up. Elvis save us all... :)
