Major thunder/lightning storm last night.  Zach was not amused.  In fact, he decided that the safest place to be was - on top of me!

DR Ginny - as far as the modem thing:

You need to have a cell plan that includes an Internet data component and that allows "linking."  Then it's simply a matter of connecting your phone to your laptop via a USB cable, and technology does the rest!  :)

Last night Cilla asked

Ok, what would be better the 2 hour cruise or the Staten Island Ferry?

Well, the ride on the Staten Island Ferry takes less time than the cruise. It's about a half hour each way so you have around an hour (give or take a few minutes). If it's not done at either rush hour (morning or evening) it's a nice, relaxing ride. You do have to get down to the terminal on the Number 1 train (I believe it runs down there during the week) so that will add time to your trip. If you do take the train downtown remember to sit in one of the first five cars.

I've never done the 2 hour lower Manhattan cruise but I hear it's quite nice. You see more than you do on the SI Ferry (the Brooklyn Bridge, South Street, and other areas) and it's a large enough boat that if it's a full cruise you're not crammed in.

I've done the 3 hour Circle Line several times, and there's a lot that you go by that lacks a certain glamor, and the entertainment value of this varies based on the ability of your tour guide at being a raconteur (sp?).  But some of the views when you get around upper Manhattan are breathtaking, and the overview of the city is fascinating even if there is some down time here and there.  And during the occasional down time during the trip, it's just a lovely, peaceful ride.  Cilla, i think you'd actually enjoy the 3-hour tour at some point when you're not trying to cram in as much active fun stuff as possible.

But the 2 hour tour sounds like it's lots of the points everyone wants to see when they come to NYC and may have a limited time for touring.  

OK, I wasn't any help on the question you asked.  But it was a post!

Tambourines came into my head because I heard the song GREEN TAMBOURINE on Sunday afternoon during one of those Info things where they shill products.  Has anyone else seen the Info thing for the Time-Life CDS, FLOWER POWER?

I'm sorry, but I think there is something rather unnatural about the ultimate 60s counter-culture symbol, Peter Fonda; selling music CDs in infomercials.

Good morning, all!  Today is moving day!!!!!!!!

I'm going to head down to the office around noon to run any errands we need to do or to finish up any odds and ends.  Between 2 and 4, the movers are showing up to pack the truck and head to our new location.  After 5, we move into the new space.  It's my current understanding that the former occupants are indeed out but some of their belongings are still in the space.  My goal after our baggage is in the office is to unpack my desk and help with whatever needs done.  I will be E&T most of the day.

Tomorrow, I will come in and continue the unpacking, then run over to NYPL for some newspaper research.

TOD:  This painting, "Umbrellas in the Rain" is my current obsession.
