Net Neutrality
Dems passed a Net Neutrality bill. Don’t get too excited, it is expected to die in the House.

WooHoo, another music subscription service.
As a teen I modified a TV antenna to pull in radio stations 101 WRIF out of Detroit and 105 WWCK out of Flint. It cost nothing.

Short version – Soft drinks are bad for you. There was a time when I drank 2 liters of Coca-Cola a day. No exaggeration. I don’t remember the last time I had one.
On a side note. I find it amusing that we Americans call carbonated soft drinks by different names. I have found that.
– In the Great Lakes and mid-west areas it is called “pop”
– Most places in Northeast megalopolis call it “soda”
– Many place out west call it “soda pop”
– Down South, everything is “co-cola”

As of about 10am Pacific Time (1pm Eastern Time) today, Mozilla’s Firefox v60.0.1 US-English 64-bit Windows file did download and it appears to install (on Window 10, in my case) successfully. However, the installation is actually not successful and the browser will not run. I’ve reinstalled v60.0.0 until Mozilla updates the installation file on their site.

As always, thanks for the updates.
Glad to see you kicked the soda habit. I was raised on the stuff (I’m 48 now) and at one point in my 20’s and into my early thirties I was probably drinking 2 litres, or somtimes more, a day (in the form of several 44oz’ers.) Finally stopped and these days I’ll only have one at a cookout or maybe if we order a pizza. Don’t miss the stuff at all.

Way to go Scott.
