Three Days Without Internet... Three Days Without Internet... Three Days Without Internet...

I woke up Thursday morning and my Comcast cable was out (this is the first time in 3 years so I wasn't too upset), and it just got fixed yesterday afternoon. Was odd being without an internet connection for that long. Can you believe, I actually read a book? All 600 pages starting Friday night and ending Saturday afternoon (it was Battle Royale by Koushun Takami, very good).

If you didn't already know, there's a new addition to our family, a new VW Bug. Not only is it fun to drive, but I bet you remember when you were a kid and played that wonderful travel game "Slug Bug".

This is a new sadistic pleasure of mine. Any time I drive past a group on the road, especially if it includes young kids, I just have to check the rear view mirror after driving by. Yesterday I caught a dad nailing both his little boys on the shoulder and I could see him yelling "SLUG BUG!!!" Now that's just plain fun...

All of a sudden, o-matics are showing up everywhere.... My theme at DWfaq has been Snazz-o-matic for ages, and my blog's admin is Blog-o-matic. But now Zeldman is linking to List-o-matics and Layout-o-matics... Now that it's cool to be o-matic, do I need to evolve, or run with it? Oh the questions... the questions...

Things that make you go hmmm... Things that make you go hmmm... Things that make you go hmmm...

Read several good articles this morning, most of which were linked to from other blogs, so many thanks to the bloggers with more connections than I've got :)
