I'm here!!

sort of... also on the phone with Apple Support since someone decided to hack my iTunes account.

[Nene]

I am here. With a very bad tv going. I really need a new one....

I hope support straighten things out before the start of the broadcast.

Thanks Nene.

I hate speaking on the phone with an ear ache because I can barely hear people, so this is an adventure.... and my laptop doesn't want to work

[Brae]
