My internet connection is spotty.  The weather folk said it was suppose to
clear up this morning for Tampa Bay... Nope.  Weather is getting worse and
the new ETA for clearing up is tomorrow.  Figures, the storm fills up the
entire holiday weekend... and I miss my TV shows, Six Feet Under and Dead
Like Me. {quirks eyebrow}  Rather morbid in the middle of a storm but I
like them! {g}  Thank goodness for repeats.

Speaking of internet, I love how the radio aired a segment from a power
company saying folks should check *online* to monitor the status of
electricity coming back.

{snort}  *Really* helpful for those without power and internet, unless
they have a laptop and/or computer battery back-up with wireless internet.
 Although, there is some logic to this for the power company: less folk
can contact them this way. {chuckle}
