Ordered Order of the phoenix today. One more thing to look forward to this month.

UK Basketball
I got this in an email that Elaine sent out yesterday:

Reuters: Michael Lim today signed his first contract as UK coach Tubby Smith's assistant coach. Lim, 27, will be primarily responsible for the recruitment of high-potential basketball players in the South East Asian region. Why Lim? "This year we find ourselves with the big guys and as a result we are weak on point guards. Mike is the perfect person to help us recruit these short but quick players. Who knows -- he may even help us find the next Yao Ming!" says Smith. Lim is seen here shaking hands with Smith.*

*Disclaimer: This was actually an autograph signing and photo opportunity with Tubby.

Subject: Internet Connectivity Issues
Due to a severe storm in Fxxxxx last night, the AT&T dish that handles half of the internet connectivity for all Mxxxxx North America locations, blew off the roof of the 1234 building. AT&T has been contacted, but at this point Mxxxxx internet capacity has been tremendously reduced. Please limit your internet usage to business critical needs. Please avoid surfing, downloading files, and playing music or video over the internet until this issue is resolved. If you have web conferences scheduled that can be rescheduled, please do so. We will notify everyone as soon as this problem is resolved.

Thanks for your cooperation. As always, if you have questions, please contact the Technical Support Center at 123-456-7890.

I think I might go out and drive around that building to see if I can find the damaged dish.
