I'm back...
Ohio was hit hard by the remnants of Hurricane Ike. About 700k lost power including the Wilder Castle. We were out for 48 hours and it took another day to get my internet working. Talk about roughing it!
We received a lot of wind damage. Two of our trees literally shredded and took out the power lines. We have gutter damage and my patio was wiped out. Other than the minor inconveniences we're good to go. I still need to call some contractors but now that I have electricity - its all good. :)
I spent a lot of time looking around at the items in the house realizing just how useless 90% of it is without power. Thank goodness for my Kindle or I would've gone out of my mind. By turning off the wireless I can use my reader for about 9 - 10 hours before it needs a charge.

Do you have a car charger for your Kindle? I was thinking of getting one for my Sony. :)
Hey, give me some candles and a paperback and I'm making like Abe Lincoln, primarily because I always forget to charge up my PDA for reading purposes. The laptop isn't that much better. *sigh*
