    Ric, Al If you could add me to the sneakenetflix queue that would be great It's been on my to do list for too long now - and would be an ideal activity for when the nights start to draw in. Charlie Brooker had an uncharacteristically high opinion of it - which certainly got my attention. Which then managed to get him a good gig http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXv3IKfqKmI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvhixZyqDbw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GVBEN1jSt4
  24. Happy Birthday Matt. Exercise all your rights, and wrongs!
  25. @Steve, sorry for your loss. @Brent, scary stuff. Glad it turned out OK in the end, but not something I'd wish on any parent. The above makes yesterdays minor inconvenience seem like small beans in the grand scheme of things. Yesterday at work, thanks to the efforts of some ne'er do well's (Thievery leaves 500 Larkspur, Corte Madera customers without phone, Internet service - Marin Independent Journal) we were without outside phone lines or internet access - the Horror! Progress was made however on our little island of technology, thanks to the lack of distractions/interruptions. A weekly conference call took on a slightly surreal aspect, with all the external parties on a webex, and our little group clustered around an iPhone on speaker mode. Later that evening Joanne and I went to along celebrate the engagement of a fellow Brit ex-pat to a local girl. I guess some people have gotten over the loss of the colonies Beer, BBQ and Live music (A local acoustic group of Dobro Slide Guitar, Fiddle, Double Bass, Drummer (brushes mostly) and Vocalist with Ukulele) - Some interesting arrangements of Brit and American tunes for the occasion. A good time was had by all; Helps that one of the organizers is a party planner.
