-Update- as of approximately 9:10 am the Internet appears to be working again.

Boca Falls residents awoke this morning to a complete failure of the Hotwire Communications system. A neighbor first reported this to me earlier.
In our house both Internet and phone are down. The phone was misleading at first because we do get a dial tone but calls do not connect.
We had DirecTV reinstalled yesterday so we can’t see any television problems ourselves.
I tried calling customer service using my cell phone, but gave up after 10 minutes on hold.

Candidate's "Community Vision Report"
The campaign of James Ryan O’Hara issued a Community Vision Report.
O’Hara is running for State Representative for the newly drawn District 81. The only other candidate is Steve Perman, as far as we know.
We hope that other candidates will provide us with updates over the next several months.
Utopia Bagel at Boca Lyons
We had mixed views on Utopia Bagel this morning. On the up side, the food was good (though not spectacular) and inexpensive. You could easily get breakfast for less than $5 each, though we spent a little more.
On the down side, the interior is dark and drab. Service is essentially cafeteria style, with plastic and styrofoam cups and plates.
We both had eggs. I had a ham, sausage and bacon omelette with peppers and onions, which was very good. It should probably come with a free Lipitor, but instead it comes with potatoes, a bagel, a very small orange juice, and coffee or tea.
The potatoes were okay but bland. There was little seasoning and I didnt notice any onions or peppers.
For my breakfast buddy, the drabness outweighed everything else. But I still liked it. I’m sure I’ll be back but I might be alone.
Utopia Bagel is in Boca Lyons Plaza next to Ethan Allen.
–Update– I do in fact return somewhat often, alone. The food has grown on me and the staff are great.
