Back in California, to a soaked living room (leaky roof, arrrgh), and just in time for the NY Giants vs the SF 49ers.  

HOLY SHIT HOW ABOUT THOSE NINERS! 

Great great game. In the end the Giants blew it. The final field goal from the 21 yard line (an easy distance for most teams) that should have won the game for NY was broken by a bad snap. But it was just third down. The holder could have fallen on the ball and they could have tried again. Instead -- panic, the clock ran out, game over.  

Does Jeff Garcia, the 49ers QB, remind us of Joe Montana or Steve Young? In every way.  

Andrew Orlowski has a story about Microsoft's cellphone. 

I am so wiped. Tired to the bone, and emotionally drawn. I know what I need. A spa. But not the usual kind of spa, I want more than a body massage and a hot tub. I want to go to an Emotional Spa™. A place where they massage not just your muscles, but your ego. When you arrive you get a standing ovation. Lots of special rooms for different kinds of support and appreciation -- all for you! (Actually for me.) You don't have to lift a finger. Not a care in the world. Sign me up now. 

On this day four years ago, a Telnet server for Frontier. It's still there. Does it work?
