You've Been Declared Competent, Son, 'Know What That Means? 'Means You Gonna Ride The Lightning

Hope everybody out there had a great Valentine's Day. We had a very relaxing day. Ran some errands in the afternoon, watched the latest episode of House, a movie called Bon Cop, Bad Cop, and a romantic dinner for two at home to top it off.

Today will probably be a quiet news day, as most places in the U.S. will remain closed for Presidents' Day (to celebrate George Washington and Abraham Lincoln's birthdays) but we'll keep an eye on things in case anything interesting pops up.

While You Wait You Can Read My Column. It'll Make Minutes Fly Like Hours

While I was skeptical about going back to the Apple store for my scheduled appointment, I walked away pretty satisfied and impressed. I was miffed that they didn't help me last week and I had to book an appointment to get some service, fully expecting the "geniuses" to either make me buy a new iPod or make me come back again to get it actually fixed after the diagnosis. None of that, I walked in and walked back out 10 minutes later with my old iPod, fully working.

On that high note, we ran our errands, played some games (yes, CrimeCraft) and watched TV. Scratch Burn Notice, House, Lost, and NCIS off the list.

Wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day and Happy Lunar New Year!
