I’m all for skipping big, loud New Year’s Eve parties and having a quiet evening with friends, and that is exactly what happened last night.
In fact, my wife, son and I were welcomed into two homes of dear friends – and this was the perfect way to usher in the new year.
Twin Cities-based Internet provider U.S. Internet provider had a blockbuster announcement today: It is rolling out 10-gigabit-per-second service for consumers and small businesses via its fiber-optic network.
For context, this is 10 times faster than what U.S. Internet, Google Fiber and other ISPs using fiber typically offered on the high end until now. It’s a big deal.
Hours after I covered this story for the Pioneer Press, Fox 9 News asked for my take on it.
I’ll eat anything once … and I have always wanted to sample that infamous Norwegian and Swedish fish dish known as lutefisk.
I got my chance last week when the Pioneer Press responded to an ice-bucket-challenge-for-charity-type dare from the Fargo-Moorhead Forum newspaper … except this involved eating the gelatinous, lye-treated cod instead of dumping freezing-cold water on ourselves.
Facebook and Twitter are always a blast on my birthday, when best wishes flood in.
This year some of my well-wishers got creative, which is cool, and an honor.
