A computer outage at JFK Airport's Terminal 7 caused massive check-in delays and long lines.

Port Authority of New York and New Jersey spokesman Neal Buccino said a Verizon server providing Internet service had problems at about 4 p.m. Sunday, which required manual check-in.

At one point Sunday night, more than 1,000 passengers were waiting in line to get checked in.

"It's official: Hell isn't other people. It's JFK #terminal7," Emma Burnell tweeted.
Verizon workers have been on strike for 6 weeks.  Hmmm...
I think they settled that with a new 4 year contract last week, perhaps a few did not like the settlement.
Verizon workers declare end to 44-day strike, claim “big gains”

During Verizon strike, replacement workers maintained fiber and copper networks.

They're not back on the job yet.  Not sure if they've even voted to ratify.

Good morning gents....  I received this petition to sign about stopping the new cigar laws from my b&m, "The Tinderbox."  I'm sure everyone has seen it by now, but thought I'd stick it on here...

I caught the Monster the other day and picked up some Acid Kuba Kuba Maduro's for 5-pack for $19.99, which is a fairly good deal.  I didn't mention it since I think I'm the only one that likes them.

Yeah, for a cell phone ;)

There is never a good day to go shopping IMHO.

 Holy Jeez, Travellin Dave must be jizz'n in his britches.  Clemson is leading FL State for the ACC Tournament Championship 13-1 in the 3rd inning.   

Seems the just cleared the field due to  rain and lightning.
