Definitely.  Most stuff you can just blow off.  Happy people are good at forgiveness.

 

>…Forgive yourself…

 

No way!  I am such a bastard, I will get even with me if it’s the last thing I do.  I have a saying:  I’ll get me, my pretty, and my little self too!  But until then I can cut me some slack I suppose.  I just need to walk a mile in my own shoes.

Agree.  The local internet company went down this morning.  It was horrifying: I had to read a book.  An actual paper book.  It wasn’t too bad until I realized it wasn’t just me: most of the town was out of luck because most of us have Comcast.  The students couldn’t go to school.

 

I have a mobile hotspot on my phone, so we went over there, which is how I am posting this.  But our school’s Wifi is also thru Comcast, so many of the students are out of luck today.

 

If a bad guy wants to burn down the US, she wouldn’t need to do it with firebombs.  It would be done by somehow taking down the internet.  We cannot operate without it.
