Yes, problems throughout the day. Although I believe it's starting to clear up. I went to the library earlier today to pick up a book. They had a sign on the door that computers for patrons use were down. I had a little difficulty trying to check out my book, they were about to resort to the paper method for me. Luckily, they tried two other computers and were finally able to proccess. 

 

Earlier I was attempting to make my car payment online through the credit unions website. The payment would not process. I finally just gave up. I came back an hour later and I was able to complete the transaction.

Not sure if this has anything to do with the outage but I'm getting flooded with spam phone calls today. Maybe the spammers are taking advantage of the situation.

The computerized billboard at Macy's in Herald Square displays the Microsoft "Blue Screen of Death" this morning:

Blue screen of death...that's almost funny!

I broke with Chrome for a few seconds and opened MS Windows.

It opened and loaded content.  Is it fixed?

It's often been suggested that we have sufficient cash on hand.........just in case.

 

Makes sense.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

Watched on our local news the airport terminals are really a mess, people have been standing in line for 5 hrs or more and the lines were slowly moving at a turtle's pace.   A couple had arrived at the airport at 4:30a this morning for their scheduled flight to take off at 8:00a to Hawaii for a birthday trip for the wife from the hubby, at least she kept a positive attitude during the interview with the reporter, but felt sorry for her and the other passengers stuck in that mess.

I went to the pharmacy today and had no issues. But the imaging center where I get my mammogram is down. I hope they fix it soon.

Cash is indeed King under certain circumstances. 

 

It's inevitable that events like this will happen again and maybe for longer periods.
