It seems when you have 2 jobs you don’t have time to do much, but when your days off come you really get at it. On these past two days I ate and had fun with my lady Mandy. You can read her blog on the right (RSS). In two days we ate at Panda Express, Olive Garden, then at Famous Daves. Wow, we are fat. It’s about time we get on the wagon again, but what shall it be this time? Join a gym or just diet?… I’ll make the decision over the next few days. I’m thinking about buying some running shoes and tracking my cardio with the iPod Sport Kit. Currently at 250 pounds I better hurry. Right.

Anyone in the city could get access free at speeds as high as 300 kilobits per second, and Google or third parties could sell access at higher speeds, possibly as high as 3mbps. The 300kbps free service could be reached at street level, in the front room of a home or business, and on the first few floors of a building. Read.
