- I mentioned the other day that the DC power port or jack went out on my laptop and that both the Sony Style store and Best Buy’s Geek Squad wanted $300 to fix it. I found the part I needed on eBay for $15, and thanks to this video on YouTube, I had the laptop up and running again in 15-minutes. Well, probably closer to 20 as I dropped a few screws on the floor and they blended in with the carpet.

I wonder if you are cheerier because you got rid of that bear that was living in your attic. Say it ain't so!
I was curious what you might have to say about Homeland after this week's episode. It's always stayed right on one side of the line as far as believability goes, but this week they managed to jump the shark in a Saturn V rocket. I'll still watch because I think it's a great show, but it's definitely not the same.
You mentioned a couple of weeks ago about everyone calling Brody by his last name. I think it has something to do with differentiating between those that are using him and those that aren't. Abu Nazir always calls him "Nicholas". I seem to remember the Vice President calling him "Nick" on occasion. I don't remember what name Roya was using. His real friends and loved ones always call him by "Brody".
