First, early Sunday morning because of user error, S.D. Watch went koo-koo-la-la format-wise and I couldn't even log in.

Second, early Monday morning, my otherwise usually reliable phone/cable/internet provider Prairiewave had major technical difficulties* in my neighborhood in Harrisburg.

Thanks for your patience with all the problems.  It's nice to be back in the saddle.

I've also started a similar blog about my second home state called Kansas Watch.  Some of the material will be the same as on this blog but much of it will be new and Kansas-centric.

*I believe the German description of such a lapse in service is called roughly "Scheißen Sie das Bett."
