Don’t know what he said, but apparently offensive enough that they no longer want him representing their company.

Days have to be scary and depressing, but nights must be absolutely terrifying.

The website gave an offset that looked like it was an hour off, by my local time. I checked into it further and realized that Daylight Saving Time had snuck up on me when I wasn’t looking!

Now I’ve got to change all the clocks in the house that don’t switch automatically.

The widgit stopped for about two seconds, made me consider that they might be having some real fancy reactor problems. Fancy, like enough to warp time. LOL.

Undoubtedly a momentary glitch in my dial-up connection but one never really knows. Huge earthquakes, tsunamis, massive blizzards, reactors going nuts, Republicans running things, cats lying down with dogs … getting closer to ‘end of days’ stuff here.
