Happy birthday Jake.

Second day in a row that my DSL cut out. Then when I got it back online found that my domain pointing service is down. Sigh. So you can get to this site via a bookmark but not from typing in 'macgirvin.com'. It also means all my email is stacking up someplace. If you need to reach me try the work address until this straightens out. If you don't know the work address your mail will just have to wait, or you can type in the direct address 'mike@[64.171.28.194]'. Hopefully this will all get straightened out before everything starts bouncing.

But at least the kitchen is done - to repeat the big event from yesterday. Tomorrow I'm grilling steaks. Would've today, but my next door neighbor brought over some hot spaghetti, and I realized I haven't had any spaghetti (at all) in 2001. One of the foods which causes too much of a mess to consider without a dishwasher and not my first choice at a restaurant.
