Seems I have the place to myself.
I hope you all hid the stuff that breaks easily.
LOL.

At work. Won't have much time to play tonight.
Night shift sucks. Man, didn't we just get done with an outage?
-

Nope. Already broke it.
Did you bring booze ?
-
Wondering the same thing. I'm trying hard to postpone a serious effort at an annotated bibliography, and Mafia Wars can only distract me for so long.
-
BTW... who hid the popcorn and microwave?
Oh well. Maybe I'll just redecocrate the place.
:uhsure:

Oh crap! I forgot to lock up the magic markers and beer again!

Hehe... Just wait until you see the walls.

Hell, those are the least of your worries. Thor forgot to lock up the fireworks and blow-up sheep.

Hey! Where'd you find that picture of Chris at the last CC party? :rofl:

Sometimes you feel like a nut - sometimes you don't.

Only the lonely, know how I feel tonight
only the lonely, know this feeling aint right....
Ray Orbison could do really amazing music...
-
I have an excuse... internet was down due to a Qwest screwup.
And..
I actually worked today. :-)

Between Thanksgiving and shortly after New Year's Day internet traffic all over declines, because people tend to get busy in real life.
However, something such as a megamassive snowstorm that afflicts a large part (populaton, not area) of the country causes a big bump, for the duration of the storm and a couple of days afterwards, because millions are snowed in.
It's been slow here at conservativecave since a couple of days before Thanksgiving, but not disastrously so. Also, the timing of traffic seems to have changed. It used to be that evenings were busy here, but at the moment, mornings and afternoons are busier.
In my case, the weather in southern Minnesota and western Utah has interfered with internet service (wireless) all day long, driving me to distraction. I posted something here at 8:00 a.m. and then walked away, because I already knew what would happen.
It finally posted three hours later.
It makes me want to go back to dial-up internet; that never went out.

Does that happen often? The work I mean, not the outage.
I got a phone call from one of our clients. "I need to have 700 users added to our account; here's 20 pages of login IDs." So I'm working on my day off tomorrow.
-
I just saw bkg's comment.
Yeah, QWest.
My internet service provider is NOT QWest, but is linked with QWest in Minnesota and Utah. I assume, without knowing a damned thing about it, that connecting point.com buys bandwidth or something from QWest.

Dude.. You need an Identity Management Solution... I can help. :-)
I like the flexibility in my job. But it comes with consequences as well. I drive to Rochester, MN on Thursday, back on Friday, and take an 8am Flight to KC on Saturday for a 1 hour speaking engagement... then fly back. Boss told me to take a couple of days off and not record it. She's British, so he's big on vacation... er... "holiday."
-
Wow. The crappy weather made the news today. Try not to slide off the road or anything.
We have some old (old-looking, at least) software that I know nothing about. I can copy and paste an entire page of data into it, but users have to be entered one at a time. There's no way to import anything into it.

that's gotta be a pain. Been doing Identity Management for 10 years. Automation is key! :-)

I'm not in Development or QA... programming is not my bag. At least this doesn't happen often -- normally it's only a small handful or a couple dozen users at most.

haven't programed since Z-script. Gotta love Canukian script languages. Now I just sell the stuff. Let me make you a deal. :-)

That's probably an inner ear thing. Maybe booze related.

Went to work, came home ate dinner and did some dishes, etc. Now I'm off to go workout. My life is fascinating :p

I am here. Well, I was here last night too, but after seeing how no one else was around, I drank all the vodka, filled the bottle with water and split. :-)

If you drove east on I-70 through Missouri, you should've waved when you drove past Columbia. We could've had coffee... :bawl:

Anyone from Louisiana near the Texas boarder?

What way did you go?

We stayed at the Comfort Suites in Council Bluffs near the casinos...it was quite nice.
We went down 29, to Kansas City, over to St Louis, to 64(?) toward Louisville, to 57 to 24 into Nashville.
We didn't leave CB until around noon, stopped outside of KC for a little 30-45 minute side trip into a new Big Lots, then we stopped again east of E St Louis, for about 45 minutes for dinner at a TGIFriday's. We were going between 75-80 the whole time except through the cities when we had to slow down.

The drive between KC and STL is nice. Done it a few times.

Well, I do alot of drives from South Florida to North Georgia...and it's not so bad as I go north...once I pass Atlanta into North Georgia..it's beautiful.
We stop for breakfast, go to the Pecan and Peach farms on the way up, and rock out to our CD's...it's a long drive, but usually fun.

I think you and I should take a road trip and end up on her front stoop in a wicker basket. We would be too cute to resist.... I know she is the type of person who would take pity on a couple strays.

Sounds a little like me. I'll consider putting on shoes and socks when it gets down into the lower 40's. Hell I may even wear long pants somewhere lower than that. :-)
