We went on our first college visit with Casper this morning! She is a junior. We visited Miami U., which she is not actually interested in attending, because it seemed like a good thing to practice at a local, low-stakes place.
Casper's take, which I know at least Teppy should find hilarious: "It was nice, but it was way too white for me." (In Miami's defense, it's not their fault we got a fratty white business major who went to St. X in Cincinnati, and also happened to be there the morning of sorority rush, so many women in uggs and formalwear and highly-done hair were dashing around campus in the snow.)

Ha! Miami so white. My junior- and senior-year roommate was Taiwanese, and our joke was that I should tell my parents "Oh my god, I'm rooming with *the* minority student!"

Oh lord, sorority rush.
Huh, my nephew in NY texted me to ask if I had internet trying to determine how widespread the outage was and it looks like the whole NE is affected. eta: Upstate NY, Maine, New Hampshire
What outage? (Lives in NE, not having any issues... so far.)
Ah, it looks like it's Charter-Spectrum, not Cox, for the most part.
Edited to add: actually, it appears to be a DDOS attack on one particular DNS system. Not just the NE, but also LA and Chicago affected.
I'm on Spectrum, and I'm fine. I'm using Google's DNS, though.
Spectrum is working fine here.
My dinner is just fine, but I overcooked all the parts, which is too bad because I have tons of leftovers....
