Well, it turns out that yesterday's 90 minute blackout wasn't an intentional one, which probably makes it worse, but at least they managed to avert blackouts for million sof customers, and settled for a blackout of only about 20,000 people.

Anyhow, I'm in the home stretch of finals for thenext five days, starting with a final in Philosophy of the Mind with Searle at 8am tomorrow. Studying like a banshee which is why I haven't posted today, responded to email, or even touched a net-attached computer until now.

Hopefully the final will go well, and I'll get enough studying for my next two finals done tomorrow afternoon that I'll still be able to go to Dickens Fair on saturday, but time will tell.

Have a great Thursday night, and I hope my fellow West Wing fans will look on the bright side and see that last night's elkection-coverage-induced rerun just means one more new episode once everything else is in reruns this Spring. Maybe if we're lucky at least one of the plotlines on ER tonight won't be tragic...

Okay, Kev. Eye back on the ball... Study, study, study!
