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, all the major TV stations had to start broadcasting in digital (meaning that they can't be received on old-fashioned TV sets like mine) last Friday, but low-powered stations still get to send signals the older way. I do have a converter box that's supposed to let old TVs get the new signals, but the TV is old enough that I'd need to get two adapters to even use the converter box! I may end up getting a small newish TV instead if I can find one cheap enough.

Yeah, the world is always on the brink. I was expecting that.
