Thank you, Time Warner, for the total collapse of wifi and even TV cable service starting around 10 this morning. I need to go down to the local TWC office and switch out the modem. Plus I’ve been dealing with (a) my late mother’s insurance policy and (b) a multi-millionaire deadbeat who controls a subsidiary company that hasn’t fully paid for an ad that ran on HE last January. I’ll try to file by the late afternoon but no promises. One of the topics will be Amy, the Amy Winehouse doc that I finally saw last night after missing it in Cannes. Update: TWC wifi back on after three and a half hours of nothing. I still can’t file until later.
