Unfortunately for us this year, St. Patty’s day falls on a work day which brings to mind this fine Irish quote:

Hopefully the office will have a nice celebration so we can raise a pint or two. If not, I’m scheduling an afternoon meeting at the pub.

A few weeks ago, one of our Public Radio stations here in the state of Iowa was off the air. It was a good week or two that it was out. I had a strong feeling that they knew about the outage, but I figured I would send them a quick note just in case. Here’s the response I got:

KUNI suffered a burnout in its transmission line last Saturday. We are currently off the air. We have a tower crew scheduled to arrive on Thursday – if all goes well it may only take a couple of days to repair.

I realize that they are sold out, but why aren’t they taking back orders? It seems like the logical place to do it. I’m not going to drive my ass into your store every other week to see if you got one in. I’m just not going to do it. I don’t like your store that much.

I’ve been wanting a Kindle for a while now but the price is a bit steep for the amount of reading that I do. My wife on the other hand goes through books like no other so I’m thinking that eventually we’ll pick on up for her. But in the mean time, the app is free so let’s give it a whirl and see what it is like for a non-Kindle owner.
