My Hotmail account was increased to 250MB, without notice!!

I previously mentioned that the U.S. should have a tryout for its men’s basketball team. It looks like USA Basketball is actually considering holding tryouts for players in the NBA, college, and other leagues. They even mentioned how it would show who has the heart to participate, just like what I said!
Remember a few years ago when people said that someday all of our appliances would be connected to the Internet? Digital homes could become a reality very soon. With a digital home, you could control the brightness of lights anywhere in the house, change the thermostat before coming home from work, and make sure that dinner will be finished as you walk in the door.
Today is my 23rd birthday! It seems like just yesterday I was anxious about getting ready to start college. Now I’m done and “out in the real world.” I can’t believe how fast time flies now!!
