It's raining alright...

Ivan arrived in my town today - at least a part of it. Plenty of rain AND plenty of wind. It's still howling outside as I type this. Thankfully, we haven't had any problems at my house. Power stayed on, no probs with the satellite dish (take THAT you dish naysayers) and my cable only went out for about 10 minutes at one point. Not too shabby huh?

Left the office a few hours early as things were closing down and I didn't have much else to do. Sen one of my guys that lived in Huntsville home even earlier before things REALLY picked up. Me, Lesa and Michael actually braved the elements to eat lunch at Edo's in Madison today. It was a windy ride but not too bad. After I got home, there wasn't a whole lot going on there either so naturally, it was naptime.

Big thanks to Dave who reminded me that a new season of Survivor started tonight. Watched the whole show and enjoyed it. Looks like a good mix of people so I'll have to stay up to date with it.

On a completely different note, just a reminder to any of my "gun-friendly" buddies that you can again purchase pistols with the high-capacity magazines. Since 1994, the max capacity was limited to 10 rounds. Luckily, a friend of mine got hold of a few pre-ban 15 round magazines and sent them to me. 15 is the actual "normal" capacity of my gun. At any rate, you can also order the magazines themselves if you already have a weapon affected by this. To my anti-gun friends... you tell someone with a gun that breaks into your house that guns are bad and he shouldn't have one... in the meantime, I'll be administering a dose of lead poisoning in the same situation.
