at some point it became popular to say "fourth of july". i'm not sure why nobody seems to say "independence day" anymore, but that's what i like to call it, because, you know...that's what it is. you don't say "25th of december", or "31st of october". it may be due to the fact that almost all of the holdays now are becoming more comercialized and their actual meanings become secondary. or it may be as simple as i need to get over it and worry about more important things. either way, i hope you enjoy your independence day.
this weekend started with the wife and i going to see the streaking minnesota twins on friday night. they continued their torrid pace by beating the brewers of milwaukee 8-2. saturday morning i setup a wireless network at my folk's to compliment their newly acquired dsl internet connection. had to consult with a fellow tech source to troubleshoot the router but after enabling mac address cloning i was off and running. i actually have to "work" on monday, but that will be a relative term as i anticipate a slow day and an early exit. tuesday (independence day:-) we head to my folk's in eagan for the annual parade and a cookout. more soon.
