    Really? Almost a year and counting.

    A dominion, then. Yeah, that must suck big time.

    Up here, there are more internet providers than I can count, four big cellphone carriers plus a handful of f****** MVNOs (a cellphone company using another carrier's network to provide service i.e Virgin Mobile), and most of them work great... except Bell, which has abysmal reception where I live. Fortunately, I have a phone that maintains decent signal, so it works good, but not great. Apart from that, they all offer great service - it basically comes down to a matter of pricing and preferences.

    My tennis partner left for a two-week vacation to Thailand (I envy him SO much), so no tennis for a while. I've considered starting with nordic skiing. I would have to buy myself a new pair of skiis and boots, the old one's won't fit. Running in winter won't do and I really need to excercise more than a few hours of tennis every week. Nordic skiing is not an ideal solution thoough since it too is very dependant upon weather. If the snow decides to melt away there's not much of a chance for skiing. I'll have to look into this more closely later.

    OK, getting toward my bedtime (I know, but I'm old and have to be up early tomorrow) and the neighbor's wretched dogs are on a non-stop barking streak. Who knows why? They live in a pen outdoors so no hope that they'll change location.

    Argh.

    Counting how many E's there are in 400 words for a frequency table is no fun. :sosad:

    Possibly you are chewing the gum the wrong way. You have to only give it a couple of chews every few minutes or you get too much nicotine and you get sick.

    Just had a lovely evening. Went to my girlfriend's uncle birthday supper. Was fun meeting her family. Kind of weird but fun nonetheless.

    I love the feeling you get when you soak into a hot tub after your body has been feeling cold for a while.

    There used to be dogs that lived 1/2 block down that liked to bark. I haven't heard them for quite some time so I think they were moved.

    Copy the text into Micro$oft Word, select Edit\Replace and choose to replace "e" with "xx" (or anything else, this doesn't matter). Click "Replace All", and Word will tell you how many replacements were made. ;)

    Geeze, I take one day off...and end up watching more movies in a single day then I normally do in a month. :skeptic:

    We went as saw 'Night at the Museum', and when we got home, my wife decided it was time for a movie marathon. :rolling:

    Today was okay. Seeing as how it was Sunday and my room-mate and I both had days of work. So, she up-and-decides that it's time for an Angel marathon.

    T'was quite good. I've missed that show quite a lot since it ended.

    Sundays are boring and pointless.


    Changing the subject, the new computer desk we bought comes with a free chair. It's one of those plastic and metal monstrosities, but we already bought a managers chair ;) So we've given it to Jack for his homework desk
