we had a blizzard roar through yesterday. no power for 5 hours, was pretty eerie.

Merry Christmas Galt! I hope that you and yours have a fruitful and happy year ahead.

As for the rest of you: Kane, Spider, Philly, NAB, Saz, Dylan, Winchester, Uber, etc., I hope you are safe and content, and that we all put this year to rest in good spirits and amongst friends.

Had a very nice quite Christmas with the Mrs and my Folks. Cooked some beef wellington for the first time, turned out pretty good.

Merry Christmas everyone! I spent much of my day doing the usual, arguing with Comcast. Christmas is the one day of the year their retention team is not available, so you get the foreign call centre workers who have the power to give you good deals you usually are ineligible for. I was able to get them to match Verizon's price for an internet only plan (verizon doesn't serve where I live but FIOS has cheap internet plans), so should be saving like $120 a month. It truly is the gift that keeps on giving.
DON'T BE A TOUGH GUY. DON'T BE A FOOL! I WILL CALL YOU LATER.

We have to preserve the back channel comms, no matter what. Start thinking of your comms January.
