Today's note is basically a cheap re-hash from last week.The NFL conference championships are here. I assume that Mr. Hughes will be MIA for this afternoon again. That leaves little excuse for those of you who are NOT NFL fans. This does mean I will be mightily distracted trying to watch the game and get on chat at the same time. Additionally we need to discuss the offline calendar for the year. Come and let's discuss these and other matters of world shattering importance. Here are the times when the fun gets started: at 4 p.m. Eastern Time; 3 p.m. Central Time; 2 p.m. Mountain Time; 1 p.m. Pacific Time; 9 p.m. in the UK; 10 p.m. in Italy, France, Germany, and Sweden; 11 p.m. in Finland and Israel; 8 a.m. Monday in Sydney and environs; and 10 a.m. Monday in New Zealand. I believe these are all corrected for standard time changes. If I am off, let me know.
In any event the fun starts HERE!!!!!!
