On the Road Again

I'm posting from a hotel in Fresno, CA. The connection sucks and it's right in the main hall, so there's no privacy. Gotta go in to an all-day meeting in a minute.

I really need to upgrade to a laptop that I can connect to anywhere.

Light posting ahead. I'm back tomorrow night.

This Day in History: March 5

On the cold, snowy night of March 5, 1770, a mob of angry colonists gathers at the Customs House in Boston and begins tossing snowballs and rocks at the lone British soldier guarding the building. The protesters opposed the occupation of their city by British troops, who were sent to Boston in 1768 to enforce unpopular taxation measures passed by a British parliament without direct American representation.
