Melanesian Choirs

Video Find of the Day

New information requires me to reassess the nature of Broadstripe's suckiness. On the one hand, it turns out that we have not been suffering from a general outage. Our outage is specific to us (Anitra and I). On the other hand, they told us in an automated phone message that it was. On the third hand, we really should have known they were lying, called back and made them tell the truth. On the fourth hand, we have just now run out of hands between us, now, because we believed their lying suck-ass recorded message, we can't get someone to fix it now until Tuesday.

Meanwhile, one of the Real Change vendors recommended this music to me. It's from The Thin Red Line, a movie about the battle for Guadalcanal I've never seen.

Broadstripe still sucks, so I'm resigned to sitting in the office late after hours to use the internet. I'm there now, waiting for some stuff to download to my precious new laptop, which I expect will solve some of these problems, perhaps in a way that involves me spending more time than I wanted in a Starbucks.

Wikipedia says Üsküdar is the part of Istanbul on the Anatolian side of the Bosporus, and it was where Florence Nightingale got famous. These violinists were performing there. I don't know what the music is called.

Thank You, Broadstripe

Broadstripe sucks. That's why I'm not doing much these days. I can't get on the internet at home because Broadstripe has crashed and stayed crashed for going on two days, the last I checked. I'm posting this from the Real Change office now. Hopefully I can get back to the usual slogging away by tomorrow.
