I’m suffering through an internet outage right now. That means no Buzz Out Loud, no twittering, and no scans. I’m typing this on my blackberry, which is a powerful device, but it can’t run my market scans.
I’ll be dumping all my VZ stock as soon as I get reconnected, so you might want to short it in front of me, while you can ;-) (since I am not an investment advisor, you should probably laugh at that suggestion and go long instead) (especially since I seem to recall that the telecom index was one of the few up sectors today)
Wednesday Update
Called VZ this morning, and they say it’s a Dallas-wide outage that they’re working on. From my trusty Blackberry it appears I’m missing out on a fair amount of action today.
So, I’ve given the house servants the day off, and am doing my own shopping for once. And even getting the oil changed in my car! It feels good to be out among everyday folk. I’ve been considering putting a miniature village on the eastern lawn, so that I can “get away” like this whenever I want.
Hopefully by this evening I’ll be back online. I would go trade from Starbucks but I can never remember my T-mobile hotspot password….

Speaking of Crackberry, I need a new brain. My Palm TX is just worn out. I write all the time on the screen, and the plastic digitizer gets indented and I get dead spots. Anyway, I want something of any OS with Wi-Fi and a QWERTY keyboard, and integrated with a phone would be hot.
BTW, I’m with AT&T, and my internet works. ;)

I’ve updated the post with my wednesday status.
I tried a palm pilot when they were really popular, but could never get addicted because I wasn’t allowed to use it at my job. The blackberry has all the planner features, and keyboard, but no wi-fi (at least on my model). Wifi would be a great addition to it, though. The phone part actually isn’t all that great, but I rarely talk on the phone, so I don’t care. I’m obviously very happy with it right now, since it’s my only internet access!

[...] happened the last week? Well, I rarely trade Thursdays anyway, and I had connectivity issues on Wednesday, so that hurt. Also, I think I just (for whatever reason) was too slow to hit the big [...]
