I told her last time. She didn't bat an eye. Wrote down "gerd" on my chart and sent me on my way. I need a new doctor.

Wife has that, dad too. They both say that without meds, sometimes it feels like getting kicked in the chest by a mule, or heart attack. Bad stuff. Sorry you have that on top of the other stuff.

Right now it's cloudy, thunder and lightning, wind, heavy rain, 54 degrees. Doesn't seem at all like June.

Where you off to?

Things are a bit crazy at AT&T today. They started pre-selling the new iPhone 4G today. We stopped by the AT&T store to see what was going on. There was a line, but not terribly long. It was moving, so in 20 minutes or so, I was talking to a clerk. We filled in the order, had everything ready except the part where you pay for it with your credit card. Then, the whole system crashed. They attempted to re-boot locally, then decided the whole system was down nationally. It turns out they're connected by a Verizon ISDN line. I found that mildly amusing.

Anyway, we completed the transaction by taking a manual imprint of my credit card that they will process later. They now have 9 days to straighten it out (the phones ship on the 24th), but somehow I have a gnawing feeling in my gut that this is going to be fouled up in some way.

I tried to log onto their website just a few minutes ago, and they are really slammed. I couldn't get past the login page.

Apple still knows how to light that magic lantern. The fellow in line ahead of me has owned every model of the iPhone, the original, the 3G, the 3Gs, and now, he'll have the 4G. He also bought the wi-fi iPad the day it was released, then bought the 3G version when it was released shortly after. At least I'm not that sick.

Quick question:

If I don't have Microsoft Excel on my computer, is there any way to view an .xsl or .xslx file? Is there a compatible program that will read the files?

Anyone know?

Yes. It requires that you plug in your Magic 8 Ball into a USB port in your computer.

wheat intolerance?

Freakish wheat. Can't stand 'em. I say, let 'em go back to where they came from. Don't want a bunch of wheat in my neighborhood. Drives down the property values. That kind of intolerance?

That's not too bad. She kept writing down "nerd" and "goof" on my chart.

I can't believe the iPhone craze.
