Astrovision now has channel 53 working again. It is still CBS but is being fed from a different city. The previous was from Erie, Pennsylvania and the new one is from New York. The good news is that since it is till a CBS affiliate, then March Madness should be available.

I can’t tell you how timely Mrs. Karen Walter’s letter is. My flock and I are currently in a major crusade to aid [...]

After posting the last post on VistaPages, I guess I need to set myself a deadline to re-evaluate whether continuing with VistaPages is better than switching to another host. I know VistaPages is a small provider. They are also a priced very low, which at the time I signed up was very important. While my [...]

VistaPages (my web host for Chiriqui Chatter) is certainly not doing anything to instill confidence in me in their ability to provide consistent uptime and high quality response time.

Gimme some guacamole dip, and tortilla chips freshly fried.
Gimme some steak and [...]

Here is the TGIF Menu. Now it says “Item availability may vary during lunch and by location.”
Which ones do [...]
