* Happy Birthday, alias_node! I've reset your TTL counter, so you won't "expire" at midnight tonight.

* On a related topic, it's like the Technological Apocalypse around here, and that's not cool! The AC is out at the house, so it's like a preview of zensidhe's "Welcome to Hell" party tomorrow. I'm optimized for cold weather operation, so this blows. Additionally, here at work we just switched over to generator power. The area down the road lost power over an hour ago, and the affected area seems to be spreading. *sigh*

As long as Gir is still functioning and I have internet access I can cope. ;-)
