Bad Behavior has blocked 278 access attempts in the last 7 days.

There is a bizarre issue with AT&T and their latest phone - the tech support folks (even the second level) haven't ever seen one, and the scripts they have are made for the original Tilt, and AT&T somehow hasn't realized that while it probably is possible to do it the "old"... (More)

AT&T Coverage and Service?

In continuing my tv watching and catching up on the news from the last year, I see that Verizon has been doing lots of ads about network speeds and comparing them to AT&T. And I found out that AT&T rates lowest on consumer satisfaction surveys, etc. My brother said he has... (More)

Cost of Health Care?

Since I am in the category of people who is expected to see my health insurance double or triple, I wonder why people are spending so much on their health insurance. I do see that since we are "poor", we'll likely get free or heavily discounted health insurance under Obama's... (More)

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November

We began the day learning about Guy Fawkes Day (Jonathan says now if we ever visit England he wants to visit at the beginning of November so he can participate in the festivities.) We ended the day by taking Daddy to the ER. Jon's notes in italics . It was quarter of five... (More)

Pocket Notes

10/23 - Jon said, "Ask Jonathan an addition problem with two digit numbers that sum to a multiple of ten." I asked him 53+17, and Jonathan figured out loud, "the seventeen goes to twenty, the fifty three goes to fifty...seventy!" I signed Jonathan up for the... (More)

Lots of Pocket Notes

Jonathan has created a new superhero. Actually, a team of superheroes. They are the SuperFire team, made up of as many different colors as you would like. Super Orange Fire is the captain (that's usually Jonathan.) Noah is often Super Blue Fire, or Super Green... (More)

Updated Pictures

We are in the process of moving to a new filename format for our pictures, simpy using the timestamp from the camera, rather than manually typing in ordering numbers, etc. And that postponed the publishing of our pictures for a couple months, but I finally spent the time today to get it... (More)

Noah 3, Faith 1, Pocket Notes, No Boys In Diapers

Noah's three year appointment was at the beginning of the month. He is 42.5 lbs and 41" tall. They did the hearing and vision tests and the nurse was very impressed. She said usually at this age, they can hear the sounds but not figure out which ear they're hearing it... (More)

New Kind of Scam: Works Well In a Down Economy

I got an email last night from someone who was looking up contact information for one of my customers: Piexx Company . She was wondering if someone was trying to scam her. The way the scam works is that someone says they are a hiring agency for some company and posts a job offer for a... (More)

Notes From The Pocket

8/7 - Faith started using the more sign consistently and spontaneously. She will now also use it to mean "I want that." 8/11 - Faith took her first step. It was sort of accidental, since she was walking holding to my hand, and I slipped my finger out. After... (More)

A Rich Family

Heather remarked at dinner tonight (at the Olive Garden - thanks Wightmans, we've got 7 more dinners at this rate to celebrate our anniversary) that we are a rich family: we now own two cars and two houses. I did realize that some people spend more on their cars than we spent on our... (More)

Chinese Perspective on Obama's Election

I keep forgetting to post this. A friend who currently lives in China wrote: It has been interesting to hear some of my former students express excitement and intrigue about the presidency of Barack Obama. The reason it has captured their attention is because it proves to them... (More)

Liberal or Conservative?

I guess I fail the test , since I answered "no" to both questions, though I suppose Brad Andresen from college (the one who always said of me, "You're more liberal than you think you are.") would be happy to hear that I'd be more likely to think it alright to slap my dad... (More)
