On this beautiful New Year's day, the first thing I did today was hop out of bed, rush to the computer, look up the Outdoor Life Network (a TV station we just started getting), and print out a list of the TV shows on it today. I thought I was going to have to watch reruns all day but I forgot about this wonderful station. No reruns for me!

The first thing I did today of any importance was to download Microsoft's Virus Update. Evidently that action changed a number of minor figures on both Internet Explorer and Outlook Express so I'm being far more adventurous than I'd planned.  Happy new Year.
