vandy goes to 10-0 on the season.

the midwest was slammed by an ice storm this week. this [ice, not snow] is the predominate type of weather we get here when we get so-called winter weather, and we carry on as best we can while being widely ridiculed by the rest of the country for closing schools. will we get more respect now that others have experienced a similar storm? doubtful.

the mobile phone company we are with sent us an invitation to bundle our services [mobile & dsl] and receive $100. we already bundle, so we are not eligible for the $100. they know so little about us, their customers for over a dozen years now, that they tease us with an offer of which we cannot partake. this is not amazing customer service.

in the small world department, a friend signed up for eharmony and got as a match the person with whom i went to the homecoming dance my freshman year in high school. rather odd.
