I kept having the strangest luck with electronics this weekend...something told me we might be in a Mercury Retrograde.

I'm not that clear on the specifics of how, what and why...but here are the 2008 dates:

May 27 to June 19, 2008. Then from September 24 to October 15, 2008 and then from January 11, 2009 to February 1, 2009.

Gotta run...be back with more details.

My home PC and keyboard are both a little wacky right now.

Here's a link that talks about it:
http://www.astrologyweekly.com/astrology-articles/mercury-retrograde.php

I like this article because they also recommend activities that are good to do during this period (re-doing something, moving slower, double-checking, finishing up projects that were put on hold)

They also talk about the higher possibility of computer crashes, communication problems...

Wierd thing...they say, don't get married during a mercury retrograde (maybe the communication might be messed up and cause problems

They also suggest that important contracts should not be signed during this period either, and that if you have business plans and travel to make a habit of double-checking during this period

another good site is www.astrologyzone.com

on another note - my sister has t-mobile and she said that her service was out for 2 days because of a service issue. just wanted to share that info...
