Ello

I haven't been online since sometime Tuesday--haven't even had the computer plugged in. Since the digital TV switchover, I have only watched the few low-powered stations still broadcasting in analog format, which might actually be informative if I remembered more Spanish. The only times I have listened to the radio have been when it was time to hear the traffic & weather report. My excursions out into the wilds have been brief forays to pick up needed supplies (and I'm low on chocolate again). So, my question for you lot is: Has anything interesting been happening in the world?

Well, Iran's still in trouble... I've been following updates on Twitter, a forum, and a couple of blogs since Tuesday, and right now all the reports are confusing. It seems, however, that groups for today's rally are being broken up, but they're reforming elsewhere and possibly starting to push back the police. Oh, and there was possibly an explosion at Khomenei's tomb, which may or may not have been a suicide bomber - all the mainstream media can do now is follow the Iranian state TV's reports, so yeah.

Not surprised to hear Iran's still in turmoil. I wish the news were better there!
