I'm posting from a nice hotel in Indianapolis.
How is Sprint data coverage there? I will be in Indy next week.

Indeed.  I will be forced to feign enthusiasm for autoracing.  Although at least it's Formula 1 and not NASCAR.  That's something.

Yep.  Formula 1 is tolerable if I have to watch it.  If I see NASCAR on TV I feel like I need to take a shower afterwards.

No idea.  I'm on an AT&T network, and am avoiding international data roaming charges like the plague.  It's wifi for me.

You'll need to work a lot harder at that feigning stuff.   :secret: Indy 500 is not a Formula 1 race.

It's always pretty good when I roll through there.  Only exception was Final 4 a few years ago, but that's due to the crowd.  It's better than Cincy nowadays.  I think they even have 4G LTE there now.

My city's Mayor Quimby lost the election.  :(  I guess being photographed naked while passed out drunk, being arrested for fighting cops while drunk, and having every acquaintance since kindergarten jailed for corruption proved to be too much for Jersey City residents.  Even Obama's endorsement didn't help.
My guess is that it was the Obama endorsement that killed him.  All that shit is bad, but didn't Obama try and cover up that somebody said something at a press conference that Congressional Republicans didn't like?

The latinos were pretty vicious on that.
It might have something to do with the fact that a week before the election, he tried to explain away that incident by saying that three Latino girls lured him out of his home onto the porch, pulled off his towel once he got outside, and then ran away.  :hmm:

Well yes. Probably also didn't help that he suggested "the girls" did sexual things to him as well.
