Some unexpected travel - read all about it!

I had problems with my internet connection for about 24 hours, and finally gave up and asked to be moved to a different room. First they said it was my cable, so I got one from the front desk - same problem. Then they said it was the whole hotel. Then I found out it was a switch affecting only some rooms. So now, I am on a higher floor (11th vs. 5th), a bit larger room (tiny bit larger, mind you) and a more pleasant view on the other side of the building.

Change is good - even though it was a pain to pack and move, yet again. I had lost count, I guess this was the 5th hotel room, so far...

Other than that, I got alot done these past two days and am ready for Frank, from Germany, to arrive and take me to a nice dinner.

I guess it snowed in London over the weekend - boy was I blessed to have nice weather while I was there.

Dr. Stew,
I am, in fact getting your emails. I started to answer this and felt the olive story warranted front page coverage. So stay tuned.

Nuggets, I did see where they beat the Suns? How about that Cornell Lacrosse team. #1 in the country right now. They play Duke tonight.

Most of the coverage here is soccer. There are at least two games on at any point in time.

Second leading story is some guy swimming from New Orleans to Chicago, or something like that.
