Starting a relaxing weekend

Well the markets are closed for the weekend. Gold dropped today and I am waitng for a buy signal from my program. However, I may not buy because I will be out of town for almost 2 weeks. At least one week, I will not have any internet connection. My wife left for Lake Tahoe today and she will be back Sunday night. Then on Tuesday, we leave for California, New Orleans, and then the Mexican Cruise.

Therefore, I plan to relax this weekend. I lost again today at the casino so I will probably play in the casino a little on Saturday and then just watch the football games on TV on Sunday.

Had another bad day with Sprint. I bought a new cell phone. I asked if it was GPS compatible. The sales girl said it was. I told her to check on it. She checked with someone and told me it was compatible. I asked her to check with their tech. She said that she did. So I bought it. The next day, I call Sprint to sign up for the Telenet service. They signed me up and said that within 24 hours, I would receive a text message telling me how to install it.

Tonight, about 36 hours later, I called to check on it. I was told that they did not have any record of my order for the TeleNav. After about an hour of repeating everything over about 4 times, I finally got to Tech Support. They told me the phone did not support the GPS. I have to buy a different phone. You may not believe it, but my patience is wearing thin.

Oh, well, I have my weekend to relax and enjoy life.
