Friday Hug
Lockedby shellbot · about 14 years, 7 months ago
I’m not going to post a Yuk today..instead I’ll post a hug.
(((( HUG ))))
Some of us know why I’m doing this, we don’t need to say much else. Those that don’t..just appreciate it for what it is and pass it along.
For once I’d like for one of my posts to stay clean..its not a playground..

Your wish is my command.
And if you don’t mind, if you see A.C. walking around Ballsbridge let her know that her chances are done.
Seems as though another girl has won me over.
😀Hope you’re having a great day 🙂

Long boring story..but only just recently joined the ranks of humanity and friendship for the first time in years.
I’ve a lot of “stepping up” to do to make up for my absense.
Emotions not my strong point either, especially the gentle ones…

This does give us time to reflect.

Take time to hug friends/family.
Take time to play with your cat/dog.

I don’t know what’s happened, nor do I know why you’re sad. But thanks for the hug.
{{{HUG}}}
But there’s one back.
I found this for you.
I hope it makes you smile.Hugs are special for lots of things
They can feel like bears or butterfly wings
They can make you smile when you are sad
Or just say sorry when you’ve been bad
They can give you love and comfort
They can wash away a tear
A hug can reach you anywhere
Whether you’re far away or near
So if you’re feeling lonely
Sad or even blue
Remember a hug isn’t far away
Just call and I’ll bring one to you~ Yvonne Lowther ~

And as I was about to climb into bed I got a phone call and had to go out and do some work. 🙁
So instead of getting some sleep from around midnight I got 3 hours after 5.00 AM this morning. I was so shattered when I did eventually get home that I couldn’t even look at a monitor and I had to crawl into bed but only after turning off the Mobile and unplugging the Home Phone. 😉

by tig2 · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to How about
After not sleeping in days and needing to but can’t, I have the cognitive ability of shredded wheat.
I used to hear the statement, “My heart is breaking,” and think that it was just so much melodrama. After all, the heart is a flexible little organ and can stand up to all kinds of things.
Today I learned that my heart is very capable of breaking. Amazingly, I also learned that when you have to, it is possible to remain quite calm all the way through the process.
Somehow I know that this will not be the last time I manage to cry myself hoarse. Boy am I glad that only the cats saw that display and they aren’t talking. It isn’t a bad thing- I now have an empty barrel for the morning and have no doubt that it will be refilled by the day’s end.
Someone I love was able to put those hugs to very good use. There will soon be a web place with a disposal area for clean, healthy hugs seeking a good- albeit temporary- home. I promise to collect all partially used and recyclable hugs and find them good and loving homes when they are no longer needed by the primary recipient.
Edit- wrong word. Failed to convey what I wanted.

Right about now, I think this is what we all need: http://www.youthblog.org/archives/calvin%20hug.jpg
I could probably use one that lasts, oh, about a week or three…

I may have other plans whose necessitation for me to use my leave time may override showing up next June.
Who knows. Maybe I’ll hop a Friday flight, show up at the hotel bar, buy a round of drinks, then retire to my room…all without anyone knowing it’s me…
That is, unless GG or NeilB show up. They’ve seen my mug in person :^0

Up in the air at the moment.
Try as I may, I can’t forget what the hugs are all about.
I do know that while you hug, I watch your six. I assume you watch mine while I hug — which I do with abandon.
Like I said, she takes care and we take care.
Take care.

This has been one of those days when I wonder how long I can keep up the exterior appearance that is so completely different from what is going on inside.
I often wonder at what point someone is going to remove that one keystone that so far is keeping the house of cards I am becoming, standing. I wonder if, at that point, I will collapse or, if not, what level of magic beans will be required to keep me going and where they will come from.
Don’t mind me, I’m just tired. And I could use a hug. Figured if I gave a few away, I would get a few in return.

Needs to be one that only certain people can find though. There are those who have better things to worry about than what is on my mind.

It will be late, but I will have an update posted of some kind. Not yet sure what that will look like.
This is all just so wrong. SO wrong.

If you look in the Pet Gallery, you’ll meet Murff, the old sea dog. For a 16 year old, he can’t half chuck out some fur! Pack a pillow? Ha! we’re onto No. 2 mattress!
Lat and plaster dust gets everywhere: combine that with Murffyfur and ordinary dust from an 1894 house, and you realise why I have a cough, and why I’m cleaning up the latest dust falls on a daily basis.
Thank goodness there is only the kitchen floor and the cupboard doors to do and I’m ready for the house invaders!

Questions
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to A man is walking down the street…
What time of day?
Who/what got the hug?
What was the reaction?
I mean, I’ve done this, but it was usually late at night and the object of the hug was the nearest light/power pole. The hug was given in an [ultimately futile] attempt to keep me on my feet! :p
Now, if the hug was for say, Scarlet Johansson or Eva Longoria, I could understand, but it would all depend on their reactions, wouldn’t it?
Been a frustrating day so far, just trying to pass a little of it along… 😐

In reply to Brave face
We try very hard to keep things light but that isn’t always an easy task. There are days when a hug would be a painful touch and all I want to do is scream- not considered acceptable in polite company.
So far, so as good as we can ask for under the circumstances. Even when I have to wait until my mindset is better, I store up the hugs. I know that I will use them later if I can’t bear them now.
Seeing this thread reminds me- much like the Bridge does- that we are not alone and that we are loved.

I don’t know, though. As much as people complain about Ireland’s rain, I’d much rather be there than here where the rain comes in foot measurements and with 50-120 mph winds 🙂

I, on the other hand, was insane before I came to Florida. It just made it worse.
I know there are times when we get rain for weeks. And usually, we get a shower every day between 2pm and 6pm.
I haven’t seen Ireland when it was really rainy. My first trip it rained once on me in 10 days and barely snowed at Mitchelstown one day.
I guess I should move over there. Maybe God puts sunshine over me when I’m there :^0

In reply to You’re plenty sane :-P
It would take brief stops, but I think it was 2000 or 2001 when I think we didn’t get a dry day from July to about October. And when we got tropical systems, it would end up being sometimes 2-4 feet of rain in a day.
Maybe I’ve just been lucky on my trips there.
Still wish I could live there. I loved being places there, whether it was Dublin or Donegal Town.

How about a joke about a hug?
by oz_media · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to Friday Hug
First of all (hug).
I won’t ((((HUG)))) you too hard though, as I hugged a nephew a few weeks back and, ignoring my hugging strength, actually hurt the little guy (me felt REEEEEALLY bad!).But I thought that you could take a hug joke perhaps, blend a yuk and a hug?
At a local college dance, a guy from America asked the girl from Sweden to dance.
While they were dancing, he gives her a little squeeze, and says, “In America, we call this a hug”.
She replies, “Yaah, in Sveden, we call it a hug too.”
A little later, he gives her a peck on the cheek, and says, “In America, we call this a kiss”.
She replies, “Yaah, in Sveden, we call it a kiss too.”
Towards the end of the night, and a lot of drinks later, he takes her out on the campus lawn, and proceeds to have sex with her, and says, “In America, we call this a grass sandwich”.
She says, “Yaaah in Sveden, we call it a grass sandwich too, but we usually put more meat in it.”

I know
by jck · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to but but
The workplace in the United States has now become so sensitive that even people who have been friends for 40 years, grew up together as kids, went to school all their lives, had kids that played together, etc…can’t even hug because of fear that it will “harass” someone else.
I tell you. The day that my best friend comes to my office, or better yet my niece, and I can’t hug em cause it is “harassing”…let them fire me.
No one has a right to assume I am a sicko or pervert in the workplace either. To assume I am some kinda of indigent and mentally uncouth person of lowly conduct is an assault against my good moral being and hostile toward me.
God, I’m glad I have attorneys on retainer now.

I like where I am working right now is that there is none of that BS.
In fact, I would say the vast majority of the women in my office are the instigaters of a lot of inapropriate talk, jokes, ect. Basically, we are filthy…
Never mind hugging…I’ve seen peoples butts grabbed (as a joke) and everyone just has a good laugh about it.
Its great

Oh..don’t get me wrong
by jck · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to One of the reasons
We have edgy jokes and all here, but the fact that ANY kind of touching is “inappropriate”…and even getting too close even when all you are doing is helping that person with something is “inappropriate conduct”.
It makes me want to puke. What happened to “Equal Justice Under Law” and “Innocent until proven guilty”?
The criminal justice system in America is so messed up.

Welcome to the United States of the Offended
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to Oh..don’t get me wrong
You have the right to eat whatever you like…unless it offends somebody.
You have the right to say whatever you like…unless it offends somebody.
You have the right to do whatever you like…unless it offends somebody.
You have the right to exist…even if it offends somebody.
You do not have the right to be offended if somebody else takes offense first.
edit: Moral of the story? Be offensive. F*ck’em if they can’t take a joke!

She had a great time while there & couldn’t say enough good things about the residents….
on another note….she showed us one picture of some mountains with a “small” amount of snow on top….she said it was the only snow she seen the whole time she was in Europe….but then she was quickly brought back to reality when she landed in Halifax during the middle of a blizzard 😀

I’m tiring of being in an office.
Too bad I don’t have a job like that old DB specialist that used to contract to my old job.
He came into town with his whole motorhome setup towing his car. Worked for about a month, made a dumpload of money, then would take off for a month on vacation.
Sounds like my kinda life! :^0

Okay. Get ya arse over here and hang out with me. I’ll take 2 days off, which will probably be much to the chagrin of the young lady I’ve promised I’d spend with her.
But hey, what are friends for…right? I’ll sacrifice my good standing with the female interest to entertain ya.
And you can watch my big TV til bedtime, then go on the spare room and watch the mini little 26″ LCD lol :^0

Hopefully, I’ll be in Ireland in about 5 1/2 months, but it will probably only be for about a day or so. I am [b]expected[/b] in Holland by the lady I call my “Dutch mom” lol :^0
She’s a sweetheart, but she has said she will disavow knowing me if I don’t come to Holland and visit her and her family on my next trip to Europe. Plus, I have been told she cooks well and I want to try real Dutch foods 🙂 :^0
Keep your chin up, we’ll get you here sometime and you can relax and hang out with me. I have had friends from GA and England come hang out with me to get away and see Florida, so you’re welcome to come stay at the JCK Resort for the Mentally Exhausted :^0

only a 42″..and no Sky..just regular digital cable…hate paying for stuff i not gonna watch 🙂 Only reason I have it in the first place is for Discovery and digital radio stations.Well..two weeks then..whatever 🙂

by jck · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to hmmmmm
That’s why I tend to date women who are a foot or more shorter than me. Of course, I was raised to think good things come in small packages. 🙂
Okay, I’ll pay for Sky while there. I have to watch my football. The cat won’t bother me, as I have had some (counts up in his head…) 15+ cats in my lifetime. Yes, I love animals…except when they use the carpet or scratch/bites holes in things. :^0
I’ll be working on the house this weekend. Hopefully, I’ll have it actually squared away for someone to come stay. It got in quite a disarray when I was hurt for 3 months, and I’ve not been quite up to doing 6 hours or more of house work until now. The mowing the lawn is great therapy for a rebuilt neck/upper spine.
Oh that’s right! If you come visit or I come visit there, you will be the first TRer to get to see the scar on my neck. It’s a lovely bit of work, or so I’m told since I can’t see it well as it’s on the opposite side of my head from my eyes. :^0

Major dress code policy change at work = major bucks for new clothes
Management that instituted it didn’t look happy when I didn’t greet him with a smiling face. I’m not gonna pretend I’m happy, even for the brass.
About to go talk to my boss about all this crap and other things, and find out his take on it. Find out if I should look to resolve it one way or another.

In reply to Here ya go
it wouldn’t be so bad, but being the puny man i am buying a shirt isn’t exactly something i can do at Wal-Mart or Sears.
I have to go to a specialty store where inseams come in more than 34 and shirts are XL and XT at the same time.
Means I have to dole out probably $500 for some new clothes now. Wouldn’t be so bad, except that I’ve spent about $7k in the past 6 months on medical and home repairs.
Guess Chase or Bank of America will be happy though. I’ll have to borrow more from them.
Yay for perceptions driving me into more debt. :^0

LOL @ odbc
by shellbot · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to That’s okay, Shell
Think old school dude.
This thing uses a .bat file to set the file paths..
Its flat files :O
Ughh..i can figure it out enough to do minor ammendments and code changes and new queries (think about as far away from t-sql as possible)..normally I don’t have to much with it. But its got an email client that is selecting the wrong records, and can’t run it from the server like i normaly would..need to do a local install on my machine to test it.
It installs..it starts, but after log in credentials, flashes a disk error..then says can’t find the config file for it.
Config file is there..i can see it with my own friggin eyes..i’m mapped correctly..i’m in the appropriate AD groups for the permissions and mappings…
i installed it on the pc of the person next to me..in 10 mins, up and running….so its gotta be something local to my machine right..
Thing is I’ve so much software ect on mine that no one else has, i’m scared to mess with it too much in case i mess up anything else..
I’m at the stage of tearing my hair out.
Only thing i can do is set myself yest another laptop and try it on that…just can’t deal with yet another machine on my desk 🙁grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I believe you can setup an ODBC to a textfile reader. Been so long, I can’t remember for sure.
You checked the DOS path setting on each machine, right?
Hope I’m not going over what you did already. Gosh. I’m gonna go check my email in case you sent me something there. I got 45 more mins here and I don’t feel like reading anymore about web programming.

Now my niece is 21, married, 2 kids, fulltime job, looking to go back and finish her degree now.
I need to be occupied. That’s why I might move out of FL within a year. That someone to occupy me doesn’t live here. 😉

you love them none the less even when they’re not your own…my sister in law was here this morning too (they don’t have any kids…yet)…she’s more broke up than I am I swear…I have four siblings (three brothers and a sister; four nephews and one niece) and for the life of me, I couldn’t imagine not being within a 5-10 min. drive away from any of them anymore; we all live within a five minute walk of each other. Then there’s our own children (blended family)…the oldest (Darryl’s son) attentds University in Newfoundland, it’s always tough, on his last visit with us, to see him out the door knowing we’re not goin to see him again until Christmas. Thankfully, my two other girls and Darryls girl are close by and we see and talk to them more often.

I’m passing those safe driving hugs on to other drivers, though. I don’t need them as much as they do. :0
450,000 miles–knock wood–since the last wreck (the dummy ran a red light to hit me), almost 550k since an at-fault wreck (never light a cigarette in moving traffic!). That’s 15 years without a wreck, 19 without an at fault wreck. Poundin’ hard on that plank!

Hugs and a Rooster joke.
by oz_media · about 14 years, 7 months ago
In reply to Friday Hug
For our British friends, probably a bit old for many now, but I had it sent to me again today so I had to post it.
Tony Blair the Farmer, Gordon the Rooster
“GORDON THE ROOSTER
Tony the farmer was in the fertilised egg business. He had several hundred young laying Hens (Pullets) and eight or ten Roosters (Cockerels), whose job was to fertilise the eggs.
Tony kept records and any Rooster that did not perform, had its neck wrung and went into the Soup Pot. The failed Rooster would be quickly replaced. All of this took an awful lot of his time so he bought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his Roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so Tony could tell from a distance, which Rooster was performing. Now he could sit on the Farm House Porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by listening to the bells.
Farmer Tony?s favourite Rooster was old Gordon, and a very fine specimen he was too. However, on this particular morning Tony noticed old Gordon?s bell had not rung at all!
Tony went to investigate. All the other Roosters were chasing Pullets, bells-a-ringing. The Pullets, upon hearing the Roosters coming, would run for cover.
However, to farmer Tony?s amazement, Gordon had his bell in his beak, so it could not ring. He would sneak up on a Pullet, service her very quickly and strut on to the next one, and so on.
Tony was so proud of Gordon, he entered him in to the West Berkshire County Fair and Gordon became an overnight sensation among the Judges. The result was that the Judges not only awarded Gordon the world famous No Bell Peace Prize, but, they also awarded him the Pullet Surprise as well.
Clearly, Gordon was a Politician in the making. Who else but a Politician could figure out how to win two of the most highly coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when they weren?t paying due attention.
Do you know any Politician called Gordon?”

after that that I realized that I really was special and it took meeting many special people to prove that to me.
As I commented to one manager today “I am just a simple tech” he replied “no Mike you are a complex tech.”
So now not only am I special I have a complex, I think. Still somewhat confused but that goes with the game.

The inevitable has happened. Hair loss began on Thursday. By this morning, the patches were very visible and prompted a visit to the hairdresser.
His is shorter than mine by a little. Right now, I look like Demi Moore in GI Jane. It’s remotely possible that JDs hair is longer.
For those that like evidence, check out the CB site.
Next cycle starts Tuesday morning.

when i told him i’d clean toilets to pay my OWN way through life rather thn relying on the gov’t for handouts he laughed at me…
he’s not such a good friend anymore..kinda lose respect for someone when they take on that kind of attitude.
It’ll get better Purple..just gotta work at the school.
I’m just busy setting out a trining plan for myself right now. Need to upgrade my certifications and get some new stuff.. gotta be prepared for when i need to find a new job next year. Going to be a long boring winter studying every night 🙁But worth it in the end…

Well, what gets sold as “Italian sausage” down here
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 6 months ago
In reply to ahhh
is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_sausage
We usually buy Johnsonville because it’s the best we’ve been able to find. There are probably local products that are better, but we haven’t found them yet and my mother-in-law (a local native) didn’t know of a source. The big sausage locally is onion sausage…and mighty fine stuff it is!

I was always taught that vodka is made from potato. But, most of them I’ve seen are made from “grain” (usually rice or corn).
Of course, I usually get a potato vodka because it just has a better taste when mixing. But, this grape vodka was good. Too bad it’s so expensive, or I might drink it more. :^0

I crashed my DB server hard on Tuesday…had to restore from an image yesterday & load the data back on it today (remotely from home because the little girl is home from school sick)….so yeah, phasers…disrupters…pulsed energy beams….maybe all at once.Urg….at least it’s only an R&D server.

In reply to Phasers…good idea
I remember in 1994 when the owner of the company I worked at and his chief network/systems engineer had not turned the backups on at a client’s site on their main file/DB server.
Just so happened, the disk crashed that night.
I had to create an app interface to input line items for payroll and manually enter all the paychecks and data back into the system, then have an app re-generate all the general ledger/budget data.
Took 3 friggin days and about 60 hours of work.
And I was clearing $808 a month. Think I was maybe a bit abused? lol

I put the “fear of Shellbot” in my DB server….
by darryl~ · about 14 years, 6 months ago
In reply to Phasers…good idea
It must have decided it didn’t want a Canadian/Irish DB admin kicking it around until it behaved…all but 2 tables imported seamlessly…I’ll have to convert them through FoxPro but no big deal. I’m just glad it was only an R&D server & not a critical one like you had…although…my image was a couple months old so I lost a bit but I was occupied with other stuff all summer…just got back to it this week…I was very, very lucky….I think I’ll be taking an image a little more often now 🙂

re: FoxPro
by darryl~ · about 14 years, 6 months ago
In reply to Phasers…good idea
I never used it an awful lot way back….mostly just VB & Access (I know…Access is a dirty word around you). The previous manager of my dept built everything in FoxPro so I’ve become used to using it to get a DB into a format I can deal with in SQL Server. Todays challenge was a bunch of Oracle tables from the province that I had to import…it went really nice…I was pleased considering I was doing it remotely from home.
So from now on….when the thing doesn’t behave…I’m just going to yell “Shellbot” at it…people may think I’ve totally lost it, but hey….if it works B-)

dirty word…
by shellbot · about 14 years, 6 months ago

access.. < rolls eyes >
FoxPro actually isn’t that bad..kinda miss working with it sometimes. it had a simplicity to it..and if you knew what you were doing, it was quite powerful. Used it a lot for data analysis..worked well for what i needed to do 🙂
Well..if it works, yell it out then 😀

Ginny the GPS took me up state highways and not US 1 like I expected. Minimal (almost no) traffic, cruise at 65, only three or four large towns, made good time.

Define “good” music

In reply to Good moring hugs!
Got Muddy Waters, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Koko Taylor, Aretha, Robert Johnson, Howlin’ Wolf, Clapton, the Allman Brothers, Saffire, and many others on the MP3.
No speakers, though…
Considering the conversations we had on the patio, I don’t doubt for a minute that music would just get in the way. 😀
And I’m required to say no anyway. Company (and insurance company) don’t allow non-employees in the vehicle, they aren’t covered.

OH and Nick I only had 1 job today I started at 06.30 and have just finished now at 01.05 the next day. Granted it was a Dara Recovery Job that should have been easy till the owner told me that they had reformatted and then reloaded the OS. 🙁

That’s why I went back to hardware support
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 6 months ago
In reply to After Midnight
Much easier to deal with. If the hardware works, but nothing else does, it’s a software problem and I can pass it off to somebody else (like you!) to deal with it.
Although in this case, I think I would have taken the drive(s) with me and done the work on my own time. If they don’t care enough about their data to not eff with the machine after the crash, it’s no longer a priority for me… 🙂

they are trying to get me fully into web development here, but in a real-time system you can’t depend on web for that. webserver = middle man = slowdown.
a client app talking straight to the data (whether the table or a SP) is always gonna be faster.

Actually had a situation today
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 6 months ago
In reply to You’re actually nicer than me
where if I could have been face-to-face with the perpetrator, I would NOT have been polite.
New equipment was installed in one of my pharmacies yesterday. This morning when they opened the pharmacy, the IVR system was locked up and making a high-pitched beeping sound (catch the clue? 🙂 ) I got there and found the keyboard for the IVR PC stuffed into the top of a cabinet with the Enter key on the keypad depressed. (Image: http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n152/nnielsen/Saywhat.jpg)
The project is installing all-new computers, bar code scanners, and image scanners in the pharmacies. This is not the first time something like this has happened to me with this particular project team. They are, to me, notorious for fecking up.
Some of my stores have Nortel BCM PBXs that handle the IVR chores; other stores still have the PC and comm gear for the IVR. I have been called to every one of the stores that has the IVR PC the day after project installation to fix the IVR.
My comment to the pharmacist today? “I wish these guys would at least pretend to be technically competent.”
afterthought: I got so upset, I had to walk around the outside of the store twice just to begin to cool off! Then I got permission to make the call billable; I felt [u]much[/u] better then. B-)

They get no hugs.
At a bookstore once when a lady opted to pass between me and the objects of my attention. I stepped back to let her pass, and she halted in mid-step. Made a point of turning, looking at me, and sniffing.
“You’re a welder, aren’t you?”
“Yes, maam.”
“I can tell. My husband is one.”
With that, she continued on her way, leaving me dumbstruck.
No hug.

re:pasture after rain
I agree Nick..shame, my parents sold the farm a couple years back..so when i do make it home to visit, i’m visiting them in the city. just not the same as waking up i the morning and heading outside to fed the cats, dogs, chickens… and just enjoy the fresh clean air, while walking about with a cup of coffee.
*sigh*
Boxy..ya, i still have outside shoes..and i live in the city with no mud!!! Just can’t break the habit..i use em when its really wet out 🙂

Just got paged for a “test” ticket. 😐 Customer agent entered the call because another agent said the system was down. X-(
He opened the ticket at a store that has been closed for a year (no problem there), but he chose a piece of equipment that generates a page. Quick and easy to cancel the ticket, but to use the router as equipment in a test ticket? :0

not really..don’t have VPN sorted out. will be trying to set it up soon though..might need it for Oct so i can work from home a bit. never bothered to srt it as never been an issue. we pretty locked down and some stuff there just no way i can access form home no matter what..
i look after some sensitive stuff that’s only accessible through VPN’s in the office..no way i’d be allowed to connect in form home for those..
nah, home not a distraction…usually work 10 times as hard at home 🙂(((((hugs))))

My situation went in the crapper.
I am going to be printing applications and resumes tonight. i’ve decided being babysat is not my idea of being treated as a professional.
Seems where I work, you get better treatment if you can lactate.

i’m about one cramp and a…well…womanly bodily function…from having my first mood swing.
i swear, i almost walked into the boss’ office before lunch and quit.
maybe i’ll wait til the weekend. who knows.
it’ll make a nice voicemail for him to get Monday morning.
“Hi. I am taking 2 weeks unpaid leave, as I need some medical rehabilitation. I quit. Bye.”
then my only worry is about…paying bills.

1) Whether or not to switch professions:

Anyways, that’s the jist of it. Peer me if you would like more details.

When I was stationed in Bremerhaven in northern Germany, we had a woman assigned to the unit who used to carry around a 20-pound “handbag”. We asked her about it and she said it was to keep the wind from picking her up and blowing her away. As she was itty-bitty and weighed less than 80 pounds, that was believable.

We could use some of that rain here
by hal 9000 · about 14 years, 5 months ago
In reply to Thursday morning
We haven’t seen any appreciable rain for months now. The grass is all dieing and going brown and crackly under foot.
Doesn’t stop [b]SWMBO[/b] from mowing it though as she just wants to take out her frustrations on the mower and see what she can run over and destroy.
Event he weeds here have dust stains over them from the one major and 3 minor Dust Storms that we have had here in the last few weeks.
Yesterday we got some rain all of 3 drops in 15 minutes. Only moved the dust around a bit and started to turn it into mud so it’s if anything even harder to remove now. OK so the Letter Box looked wet but that was all that even came close to acting as it it was wet.
[b]SWMBO[/b] Mutant Pigeons didn’t even think about leaving their feeding area to look for shelter they knew better or are incredibly lazy. I’m really not sure which it is though. 😉

It works perfect in FF for me.
The top of the page shows, and I hit Ctrl-End and I end up at the bottom every time, then PageUp key and it gets me to seeing the last few articles. Then the mouse wheel takes over.

Lee needs to be protected from the likes of us at every opportunity.
Soni, has weakened her into exposing herself to those Wicked Individuals who inhabit TR so the best that we can do is ignore the Pod Cast to protect Lee AKA Purple Skies.
I’m just wondering how far removed from DM she is though as I sort of miss those Blushing Colored Skies when he was exposed to GG and the rest of the Impure Brigade. 😉

Your lot completely miss the point here, it was Soni who made us at TR sound Nice.
Lee is in for a very big let down as this isn’t just any Open Forum it’s TR and we are a completely different kettle of Fish.
She could ignore us when it was just Darryl saying nice things about the site but when Soni did the same what chance did the poor girl stand? 😀
The Poor Girl is in for a big let down when she eventually realizes what we are all actually like. 😉
I bet that she’s still looking for all of the Nice People who she was told about and wondering what she’s doing wrong. :^0

I’m doing mine this coming saturday..having a bunch of friends over..will be a good time.
Last year I cooked enough for 12 people..thinking ahead for leftovers, so wouldn’t have to cook for a couple days..shockingly, they pretty much cleaned up everything.. I guess thats a compliment to my cooking..but still..i wanted leftovers!!!
So this year will have to step it up a notch..as i need leftovers in the house for a few days..ooohhhh..can’t wait to make the pumpkin pie..yuuuuuuummmmmmmm!!!!!!

I am probably going to cook everything this year, as my mother hasn’t been well and I don’t want her being exhausted.

I will be cooking some for a family probably in the next few years. I guess I should be able to help the wife with the turkey, salads, veggies, candies, etc., when the time comes 🙂

I always cook the whole shebang..
Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas/carrots, mashed turnip, cranberry sauce, home made buns, pumpkin pie..
Usually do an apple pie as well, but this year one of the friends bringing a desert as well, so I won’t bother with apple pie.So gotta clean the place up good an proper, get all the shopping done and then start the baking friday..
I always say I won’t do it “next year”..but then the friends start asking in summer “when is thanksgiving dinner??” So, my ego always kicks in and says..ok..i’ll cook for them again.
Dang ego 😀

In reply to go for it!
I am going over Wednesday night straight from work, and I’m going to tell mom:
“Sit your a$$ down. I’m cooking this year.”
Then I’ll take the bread, crumble it up, season and slow bake it into crouton-type stuff for the dressing, get the turkey out of the fridge, then start boiling eggs to make deviled eggs, then put the turkey in some seasonings to sit overnight before cooking.
Then the next morning, get up, put the stuffing in the turkey, tie it up, and put it in the oven and do bastings every 30 mins. Get the potatoes out and make mashed potatoes. Make some green beans, salad, etc. then get the serving dish out and get all sorts of veggies chopped into bite-size pieces and make dips for them.
Oh yeah. Did I mention I can cook? lol
Okay, well. I gotta re-learn to make some of the Christmas candies again. It’s been…um…in some cases, 30 years since I made them.
But, I make a mean batch of fudge 🙂

I didn’t choose to not take them. The government said I have to stay “available” in November in case I’m needed.
The trip in December got put on hold. The person I was going to spend time with is going to need to spend more of her Christmas vacation with her grandmother, because she’s not been doing well.
But, we are planning 2-3 weeks in May on the coast at her family’s place.
And who knows what will happen on a starry beach in the late spring 🙂

In reply to turkey
When I was growing up, we used to have my father’s whole family show up at our house: parents, brother, sister, and families. My Mom would buy the biggest turkey she could find every year (had one at 25 pounds one year) and it would be picked clean by the end of the meal. Not even enough left for supper leftovers.
My wife’s family is from the South; they deep-fry the turkey. Yum!

In reply to well..i’ll be
As long as it’s the right temp when you put the bird in and you keep it at that temp, the bird doesn’t pick up that much extra fat.
Been tested. Dietitians say it’s no worse than cooking the bird with the stuffing inside.

In reply to grumbly hugs
I was gonna be grumbly, but I figure the best way to resolve my situation isn’t to grumble but to just prep my resume.
I think “the straw that broke the camel’s back” happened today. When I get accused of breaking direct orders from a superior without proof, I get upset. Guess it’s from being raised around half a dozen retired military people (my uncles).
Ah well. Enough.

Let it out. It’s better not to hold in angst.
I just don’t mention details for legal reasons, and I don’t need to put a label on those who aggravate me at the job.
Oh yeah, DBA reminds me:
I’m having to manually re-do most of the processes on the DB side in our test environment. It’s too much to run a nightly job that would just copy the schema over.
oh well. If it makes my work late, so what. I’m about tired of being thrust into a “do this” job where I haven’t worked with the technology in 6-7 years.
Thank God for the internet.

Guy rang up the HelpDesk, the cord on his phone was twisted so much that he could hardly lift the reciever to use it. Could someone go down and sort it out? 😀 😀 😀
After we all stopped lauging/crying…there was the suggestion that everyone go, and we’d all stand around and himm and haww about it..mkae it seem like a real big deal…I volenteered to go untwist it for him..I would have likely beat him with it after though 🙂ah..you just couldn’t make this stuff up!

Now THAT is funny :^0
My latest find was:
While working on the application for which I’m responsible, I look into a form to find a button that saves the data on the form and a tab control.
Little do I find a tab for detailed description that the HR department should be using.
The save function does NOTHING to save that data.
So if HR ever comes to me and says “why hasn’t all this stuff saved?” I’m going to say “Someone else wrote that code for you. Not me.”
I told them here the other day I won’t vouch for anyone else’s code but mine.
I did that once, and it burned me.

In Myrtle Beach. Had about 4-5 beers and watched the US soccer team come from behind to tie Costa Rica, then headed for the room at about 10.
Rolled over this morning at about 0630, looked at the clock and thought, “Okay, time to get up.” Laid over on my back, then got out of bed and showered. Looked at the clock after the shower and it said 8:10. :0
Apparently, I grabbed a quick nap between 0630 and my shower… 😀

As I’m the recognized expert on certain systems, I get phone calls when the other techs need help with those systems.
Apparently, there was a rash of outages today…
Also took some time and went through the two IBM POS printers I have in stock to try and get them back up. (They are my “quick swap” spares, but there was a period last summer when parts were not available, so I had to part them out.) Got the one up and the other is going back to the shop as a bench queen: print head assembly, receipt cutter, paper sensor, ribbon drive, impact print head (that endorses the checks), and main board all bad. :0

by hal 9000 · about 14 years, 5 months ago
In reply to Quiet Friday evening ((((hugs))))
But it didn’t last out the Friday Afternoon. Supposedly today I was supposed to at the very least get the Bog in the Fuel Tanks Shaped and then undercoat them. I had the entire day free till about 21.30 Hours Friday Night.
Then in under 15 minutes I got 2 nasty jobs that have just stripped any [b]Spare Time[/b] that I though I may have out the Window.
The first one was a girl who gave a [b]Borrowed[/b] NetBook a drink of Wine and something this was a week after giving her Note Book a Drink of Rum and OJ a week earlier. I foolishly thought that it had been 2 weeks but I was corrected today. Seems that I no longer know which week it is let alone which day. 🙁
Then I got lumbered with a Job to convert some VHS to DVD. I did try to get the person requesting this to do it and I even offered to give and Fit a Video Capture Card to her computer so she could do it. Unfortunately that didn’t work and it’s only been about 2 years since I have done this so I had to dig around and setup a system here to do it and then remember how to do it. At this rate I’ll be ecstatic when 1965 finishes. X-(
But just so I wouldn’t feel bad she sent her daughter over with a Samsung DVD/VHS Combo unit with the very descriptive description [i]it worked when I unplugged it and replaced it with a DVD Recorder but now it’s not working.[/i] She neglected to mention that it was [b]Dead.[/b] OH well another item in [b]Silicon Heaven[/b] I suppose.
But the sum total is that I have not recorded the Videos to even a HDD, got around to even shutting the door under the house where the Ducati Tanks are. At the rate that I’m getting it painted I’ll find a pile of Rust on the floor that used to be 2 Fuel Tanks.
OH BTW it’s now 22.00 Hours and I’m just starting to look at my incoming E-Mail and I did promise [b]SWMBO[/b] that I would have a early night come what may. Well it was a Nice Idea while it lasted at least. :0

At that time

In reply to old folder
I wasn’t as into the Stones as I was other groups, but I liked most of their stuff up through Sticky Fingers. Exile on Main Street had me shaking my head, Goat’s Head Soup was a waste of vinyl, and it’s been downhill [almost] ever since.
I think it’s ironic that the best thing they’ve done in the last 35+ years was a tribute to a different musical genre.

from Bed Bath and Beyond, but have to special order them there. Don’t know why, but flannel sheets don’t seem to be too popular in the South.
For internet ordering I use either LL Bean (http://preview.tinyurl.com/yz3x58l) or BB&B (http://preview.tinyurl.com/yjtr83y).
They might hammer you on shipping, though.

And I now only have 13 Surgical Procedures to move from VHS to DVD. I hate being so lazy that I put this off till it was needed at the end of the Month and I need to get it done along with the rest of the work.
Perhaps I should looked at one of the VHS Tapes and then I would have known that each one is over 5 hours long with 4 Procedures per tape. :_|

But things are looking up I have 3 systems going capturing the VHS to the HDD and one doing some [b]Post Capture Cleaning.[/b] But this crappy Software actually shrinks the Converted file tot he size of a Single Layer DVD and leaves no room for the Partition Tables.

He just finished the fourth cycle. According to his last CT, the problems have all gone down to roughly 2 cm or so in all three locations. They will hit him again with a fifth cycle mid November and probably a sixth the first week of December as well.
Hoping to get in to see a cardiologist after the first of the year. That should be interesting.
His hair is trying to sneak back. Grey, but hair. The stash is still there- grey, but there. He has quit losing weight.

I’m liking the #1/#2 comb length (1/8-1/4″). and according to the web page, the shortest the Flowbee goes is 1/2″. :0 Plus, I have clippers at home to do the beard and since everything’s the same length now, all that’s missing is the vacuum…and I’ve got a Shop-Vac! 😀
Actually, since I go to Great Clips, it’s not that really expensive and I get to have pretty women run their fingers through my hair and tell me how good I look. B-) (Yeah, I know. It’s pathetic, isn’t it? And the worst part is even though they tell me I look good, they still won’t give me their phone numbers. 🙁 )

He wants to shave it all and I am trying to keep him from doing that. The bits he has do serve to protect him and it also reduces the loss in other areas.

I had to go back to work to have some time to myself.
Over the entire weekend I managed to pot 1 plant for myself. The rest of the time I was running around like a Mad Person fixing computers. 🙁
I can’t stand weekends as I work way too hard and never get anything that I planned to do done. :_|

Mainly because
[b]SWMBO[/b] insisted that I do the work. Apparently she likes spending my money. :0
But on the up side on Monday I got to put away all of the stuff that I was going to use on the [i]weakend.[/i] It’s just so much a waste of my time pulling it out to use. 😀
But as I now realize that I got the bare fuel tanks of the Ducati Undercoated with some pressure pack paint so at least when I get back to trying to paint them I will not be faced with a pile of rust and no tanks. :^0

In reply to i have to admit
when I question the sanity of being a DBA…
however, I tempted fate and declared “i am not leaving this office untill I know what the problem is”
4 days of my life..nearly blind from scanning log/trace files, and 1/2 brain damaged from banging my head against the screen..BUT…I figured it out..
I tell ya, users never cease to astound me..somehow..someway..they managed to type in thier own file paths in the system when publishing documents to the websites, for folders which do not exist in the system..
I guess they figured if they just typed in what they wanted to, the system would automatically create folders on the webserver????????? So no wonder if “barfed”..it was trying to reference file paths that do not exist.I’m gonna have fun in the morning spanking some sense into the offender…

Had a strange issue myself this afternoon
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 4 months ago
In reply to its days like today
Server won’t ping after a reboot, but all indications are it’s up and running (stand-alone box with no keyboard or monitor). Used a physical trace and the hosts file to figure out which IP address it has; on a network that uses BootP for assigning addresses to fixed equipment, the server pulls a DHCP address. It pings, but I can’t connect to the VMware web interface…weird.
Since I’ve already reached the limit of what the customer says I can do, I call the help desk and spend the next two hours rebooting the server (with no satisfaction) and getting escalated. Finally talking with level three who has me connect a monitor and keyboard and log in as root. “ifconfig -a” gives us the first solid information we have: four ethernet ports on this server and not a one of them is passing packets. A little checking reveals that the primary MAC address is assigned to Eth2; the network connection is on Eth0.
Fixed it by, get this, changing ports on the switch. Seems the ethernet interface in this brand new server doesn’t negotiate well at higher network speeds. Moving the connection put it on a port that is configured to allow speed negotiation.
Three hours on the phone to learn I could fix the problem by moving the server’s network connection at the switch from port 15 to port 12. Sheesh!
A 73,000-line trace? My eyes are burning just thinking about that! Glad it’s not me (((hugs)))! I think I’d rather spend the time on the phone…

Glenfiddich, the gateway scotch
by jamesrl · about 14 years, 4 months ago
In reply to think i got it…
For a single malt, its very accessable, not too strong, balanced, smooth and a little sweet.
You won’t drink the cheap blends again.
And you will get used to it and venture into more complex single malts.

In response to James, yes, I have no doubt you’re right, but the “boss” wanted to start me on a decent one first before moving to something a little higher quality (better to know if I at least liked it before wasting $$ on something I wouldn’t drink).
And Shell, I haven’t had to many red wines that I actually liked; although one of my brothers and his wife bought me a bottle of 7 Deadly Zins a couple years ago for my birthday, it was to die for it was sooo gooood!! -

red wine
by shellbot · about 14 years, 4 months ago
In reply to ba hahahaha
thats because there’s a lot of really bad red wine out there 🙂
the trick is finding some ya like.I mostly stick to French..while there are differing degrees of quality..it would be rare to get a comepletly bad one..

Project Monday
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 4 months ago
In reply to It’s Monday
Was supposed to move both a customer service counter and accounting room today. Got to the store and the dept manager says she wants to clean the new permanent location before I do anything. I tell her I will need to drill holes through the countertops for various cables (displays, pinpads, etc.), she lets me do all that. We figure out where everything needs to be, I break out the drill and hole saw and go to work. When I’m done drilling, she kicks me out and starts cleaning, so I go break down the first register to move. Then, when I bring the register in, she has a fit because it’s dirty and won’t let me put it in until the outside is not just cleaned, but [u]detailed[/u]. She even pulls the caps off the keyboard and soaks them! Finally got the first register up four hours later, just after lunch. All the equipment finally up at 5pm. Never did move accounting–no latch/lock on the door to the new room.
A three- or four-hour job took the whole day because she insisted on cleaning everything first. Oh, well, it’s her store and I get paid either way.

But she insisted on not letting me bring a piece in until she had cleaned the outside of it.
I drew the line on letting her open the equipment up and clean inside–told her that was my job and had already been done in the last three months. She wanted to use the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (http://www.mrclean.com/en_US/magic-eraser.do) on the printhead! :0

In reply to Sometimes it is actually
I’ve been done that way too. Takes at least three weeks to find them all and get them fixed, then apologize profusely to the customer and assure them that I won’t let it happen again…like I have any control over the situation.
I’ve even come back from vacation to find that the tech they sent to cover my territory had broken more than he had fixed. In the week I was gone, no tickets had been closed, an additional 22 were opened, and every store he’d gone to was worse off than before he showed up. My only question was “He’s still employed?”

Sunday afternoon (((less germs))) hugs!

In reply to Sunday Morning
Had a crappy couple of weeks battling cold germs, wrestling with having a voice (yeah, ok, shut up in the back row!) and numerous glitches with lappie, router and everything else gadgety.
However.
Today is a WUFFLY GOOD DAY.
Why?
The Old Sea Dog is 17 Human Years old today!
Yay!
(((((((((( HAPPY BIRTHDAY MURFF HUGS ))))))))))
and for the rest of you, (((((((((( hopefully germ free hugs )))))))))
Advance notice, also, for prayer mats out for Friday morning, 0930 mytime. FINALLY got an appointment with an orthopaedic consultant after three bleepin’ months of waiting – – – – I may finally get some sleep in the future! :p 😀
Gonna hug a Happy Murffday dog in the chair for a coupla hours…. (@)

Apparently the only thing that “osmoted” (is that a word? It is now.) was the hangover. :0 I was wondering how I got the headache.
Thanks for letting me know. Now I know who to blame for it! :p

In reply to MJ
done that, I have had a few lunches consisting of a PayDay candy bar and a small bag of pretzels, and have not been above cooking a pound of bacon and calling that breakfast, of course with a few coffees.
But a bag of chips for dinner, not yet.

I’ve done many things for lunch and dinner
by nicknielsen · about 14 years, 4 months ago
In reply to MJ
including skipping them completely, but my closest episode to a bag of doritos was a box of Triscuit and a pound of cream cheese.
Lately, I’ve been having my usual bowl of oatmeal with raisins for breakfast, but lunch has been whatever wherever. Yesterday I had stopped to recycle some coffee, looked at the menu for the diner, sat down, and ordered two scrambled, hash browns, biscuit, onion sausage, coffee, and large OJ. And all that for under $10 before tip.
If I’m doing a lot of driving, lunch is usually a bottle of water with some flavor of powdered drink, a snack-size (1.5 oz) box of raisins, a handful of Triscuit, and a banana. That’s probably better for me than what I describe above, but it can get old fast, more because I’m always eating it on the run than anything else.

by shellbot · about 14 years, 4 months ago
In reply to Nick..
the severity of my hangover may have been becuase i was obviously coming down with a cold.
Woke up this morning with a full blown sinus cold..
Sore throat, fever..the whole works..I am so annoyed, because I am going to Frankfurt on Thursday..and if i am sick, i am not going to be a happy girl. However, nothing will keep me from going…so i am dosing myself with every possible thing i can and trying to sleep it off….i even sound like Darth Vader for gawds sake…

Just ain’t gonna do it.
Young and upcoming as I am — making a name for myself, constantly concerned of how I am seen — I just know I would blow it.
And, then, there is the FBI, the CIA, the NSA, the WCTU — who knows what they would make of it.

Hey Everyone!
This thread has really grown over the last few months, and it is starting to become a tad difficult to completely load.
Could we possibly start a Friday Hug part 2?
Thanks!

Yes I believe she has a point but it should be up to Shell to start Part 2, it comes from the heart and our ever faithful driver at the first Gathering. Thanks Mike, I think of you often.
By the hands on my watch only 189 days to go to the next Gathering.

Tammy lost her shoe in Nashville. As she didn’t say what she was doing to lose it, we can only assume.
