Real time chat and random news

More Serve Shutdowns

I had 4 left over from the first wave since they were recent RB -> Serve conversions back in November or so.  All 4 got the axe this morning.  Now I’m left with 25K of GC’s on my desk at home.  The lesson learned here is that I shouldn’t have procrastinated and loaded up first thing on 3/1 (or heck, the night of 2/29.)  If you have any remaining, I’d load up first thing in April and May before you get struck down with the next wave.  As for my stockpile of GC’s, I’ll hit up some WMT’s and grocery stores and hope they don’t check names on cards.

Real time chat

I had mentioned a long time ago about a Seattle based newsgroup.  I had about 2 dozen of you Seattle-ites on it, but due to all the MS avenues being struck down, it got kind of quiet and sorta died off.  I’ve transitioned to a real time chat, so if you want to join, reply or shoot me an email and I’ll send you an invite.
