Re: [BLUG] Did ATT mess up your cell phone, too?

It happened to my wife and a bunch of people that I work with, but not me. She had her iPhone to pull time from the cell network, but I don't trust em, so I have my BB set to manual. Guess who was on time for work this morning? ;-)

Yeah, this happened to me. Luckily my Clocky woke me up at the right
time. It seems like someone must have actively changed something to
make this happen. Also, liabilities?

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of hardship when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Now, I feel good, I started to get real money.
It gets down to select a proper partner who utilizes your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the profit with me.

You may get interested, if there are such firms? I have to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
