On a matrimonially significant note, my baseball season is over and Dianne is back to have my generally undivided attention in the evening.

Blackberry had a meltdown last week. Now we learn that the government is going to require cell phone providers to warn their customers when they are in danger of exceeding their contracted limits. (Up until now additional charges were frustratingly routine.) Many of my neighbors find that they are regularly without internet because of the ways they have bundled their services, sometimes when they need accessibility the most. My bank requires two passwords, two security questions, and an image recognition in order to access my account but still sends me alerts when people are using some new spyware, etc. to try invading my very meager bankroll. It is a reminder that technology is not the answer to everything and sometimes carries unwanted prices for its benefits. Still nothing can take the place of God who loves us unconditionally and is at work to do go in all things for those who love Him are living by His purposes. (Romans 8:28)
Time was on the minds of many of the patrons of my favorite eating establishment, the Silver Spring Family Restaurant. To be specific, "Daylight Savings Time." Doesn't it end October 31st? No, not sense the Bush Administration chose to tinker with it in the name of greater productivity. (Now it's sometime in November, or is it after Thanksgiving?) Oh, and the other question? Forward or backward. Gain an honor or lose one. Remember, "Spring forward, fall back" unless the Obama Administration decided to tinker with DST as well
