I'm so accustomed to wearing my headphones to listen to videos, but running videos eats up a lot of Mb on my mobile hotspot so I'm in ration mode where I only get a few bread crumbs each day.

The technician came out this afternoon (he is mi amigo because of his frequent visits) and found a problem at the junction box that was probably due to all of the rain we are getting. He fixed that problem, but there is also a wiring problem so a different technician is going to be here this morning to fix that problem.

At least I have enough data available to get through tonight so it shouldn't be too bad.

And with the election getting closer, the news is getting much more intense, as are the comedians making serious fun of Trump! You may have already seen some of these segments from The Daily Show. Rather than doing repeats this week, it's a "clip show," showing numerous segments on different themes. But he really does a good job bringing the Trump insanity together on whatever topic he's covering.

And Seth Meyers is finally back - after two weeks of repeats - and cranking it up. Colbert was off week before last and he's back for the duration. And Colbert is also doing a live show on election night - they all have taken the election very seriously, but I think he's gotten into it more intensely than anyone.

I sure hope that the tech who shows up in the morning can solve the problem for you - obviously the election is the most important thing and all of us - everywhere - are pulling for Beto. He really is a superstar. I looked for the video of the last Pod Save America broadcast that I saw - with Beto as their guest - but I guess it's not available yet. And those guys were on Colbert tonight. I tried to see if they were still airing it, but Felix is taking a bath in front of the TV screen...
