I'm surprised no noe responded to this. I, for one, think there's some interesting reading in there.

Powell's little-known blog entries:

July 23rd -

Those cell-phone guys are such whiners. It's always "I paid 5 billion for this frequency, and where's my customers?" and "Some jerk in a plane was talking to his girlfriend and messed up my system". Go tell it to the FAA, you loser.

July 26th -

Does anyone really use their home phones anymore? I know I don't. I called up AT&T and told them I wanted to drop their service. Next thing you know, they issue a press-release about how they're getting out of the residential long-distance business. Ooops.

July 26th (afternoon) -

Wife called. I have to cut the grass when I get home.

July 26th (afternoon) -

Now she wants me to pick up some milk at the store. jeeze.

July 31st -

Stupid kids making prank calls at 2 in the fricking morning. I'll show them -- I'll get Congress to make it illegal for minors to use mobile communications devices. No driver's license, no cellphone. That's the law.

Aug 2nd -

Katie Couric interviewed me. What a hottie.

Aug 3rd -

Ted Turner called. He's got an idea for another TV channel, but wants the "Turner Classic Movies" name back from Time-Warner. What can I do about it? I'm not going to cheese-off those guys. The wife will complain about not getting to watch "ER". Plus, he'd just colorize more movies so that John Wayne has green teeth again.

Yeah, not a lot of updates but it's nice to get a little clue of what's on the guy's mind though. Hopefully, chip's material came from the blog of some other] Powell...
