• I think the hard reset of my Treo might’ve actually fixed both my crashing & battery draining problems. Keeping my fingers crossed! #
• Now if Nissan would just fix the Altima’s Bluetooth system firmware to work with the Treo 800w as they claim it should, I’d be really happy. #

• Off to the Apple Store see if the Genius can fix my WiFi. I hope buying a new MacBook isn’t in my immediate future. #
• 10 minutes & the cost of the part & the Apple Genius has my MacBook as good as new! That is why Apple rocks. Thanks Sagemore Apple store! #
• @rozsavage Very cool that you had time to tweet the final few miles. Congrats on another amazing achievement! #rozsavage in reply to rozsavage #
• May have to hand in my geek card… Forgot to reset router ACL for MAC address of new WiFi card. Second save by the same Apple Genius today. #

I was scheduled to be in Newport for a week on business but the trip wound up being unexpectedly extended into a second week. I used the opportunity to do a little bit of sightseeing on the weekend. Besides walking about 10 miles, I took tours of two mansions (The Breakers & Marble House), toured the Breaker’s stables & carriage house, walked part of the Cliff Walk and did some shopping. If you have to unexpectedly get stuck somewhere, Newport is a good choice!

Check out the photos here.

I was in Newport Rhode Island on business recently. While I was there, the Newport Winter Festival was going on. It was the weather was beautiful for the two weeks that I was there. Of course, on the one day that I had free (the day I travelled home) there was an ice storm and the skies were gray at best. But I made the most of it and went out and did the tourist stuff and took a bunch of photos.

Check them out here.

What did I do with my weekend? Well, part of it was spent in Rhode Island at a Davy Jones (from the Monkees) concert at Misquamicut Beach. It was definately a small town event, but that was a large part of what made it fun!

Also at the concert was Pete Best, a man who no one has heard of, but was the original Beatles drummer.

They had an opening act, but he’s not worth metnioning here. The other opening act was “The Beach Bums” which was a local group that seems to be an extenion of the Misquamicut Business Association. They were good. They should have been the official opening act instead of the other not so good guy:-)

I took a ton of photos which will be online at some point possibly, but until then here’s one…
