Well, the surgery is over. Jen is home recovering. She’s pretty tired and very sore, but I suppose that’s to be expected after 5 1/2 hours of surgery. The doctor said that hers was the second worst case of uterine scarring that he had ever seen. The good news is that this should take care of her pain. The other [...]
It’s the Bill and Steve show. This guy is an absolute hoser. So far, Comcast gets a thumbs up. Everything is working great. I had a brief outage this morning, but I called tech support and immediately talked to an intelligent and friendly rep who listened to what I had tried and gave me a case number within a few [...]
Jen goes in for surgery tomorrow at 8:00 AM. The procedure should last at least four hours, and we should be home sometime in the evening. Please keep her in your prayers. Thanks! For more info on her surgery, click here.
When Elephants Dance. Interesting article. eSchoolNews Report: Some web filters might reflect bias. Unbelievable. I can’t believe how many people seem to have enough free time to research this kind of stuff. Here’s the point of the report: because many companies that provide Internet filtering to schools also provide Internet filtering to conservative Christian groups, the filtering companies are obviously [...]
Good jokes from yesterday: 1) Bare Bones Software’s “Personal Analog Device“ 2) AOL buys Blogs 3) iTivo. Video available here. OK, this was kind of stupid.
By Monday, April 8, I should part of the Comcast network. Finally. After four years of waiting, calling, listening to excuses and evasive answers, and more waiting, my cable modem is actually in the mail. And this isn’t an April Fool’s Joke, either! But, it wasn’t without its wrinkles. When I called Comcast, the very friendly rep (their reps have [...]
Happy Easter! Or, as my pastor likes to say, Happy Resurrection Sunday! He rightly points out that the name Easter has no real ties to the Christian faith, but rather to Paganism. Thanks for everyone’s encouraging notes about Jen’s surgery. April 9 is the big day.
I’ve posted a note about Jen’s upcoming surgery in the articles section, along with a few other things to read.
A styrofoam computer case. Interesting. Apparently the guy assembled all the pieces without the case and then just sprayed it with foam. Lightweight. Several folks wanted to know what kind of surgery Jen is having. I’ll write something up about it this weekend. It’s a long story.
Holy Cow. HealthGuard comes through. They will pay for Jen’s surgery. All of it. What a relief. Now we can spend our tax return on a swing set for Gracie, just like we wanted to. Network problems that you just can’t figure out really suck. That’s what I’ve been working on for a week.
