We're all gonna die, aka thet are restarting

not gonna get to the sploding 'till January!

Plane misses runway, lands in lava... No I
didn't make that up its a headline on MSNBC!

A lesson I was reminded of when I realized I missed both Series Premieres I was looking forward to.  Kings and Legend of the Seeker, the former ripped from the pages of the Sword of Truth series.



Luckily before my panic set in, I found them both on Hulu.


Yes Mr. Alec Baldwin, my brain is turning to mush, but as long as I'm entertained, bon apetite.

Lillian got told Wed is her last day today. Not much for notice to look for something new. If anyone knows any low level network positions heads up would be appreciated.

FYI

Found this article comparing the bailout to other vast sums of money, like the entire NASA budget for next year is about 2.5% of the bailout and allot more, for those that care.

Avast!

 Anyone got a spare AT&T phone laying around?

I'll buy it from you...


Let me know.

Got this one boss at work that might just be me in a few years.

He was a former Tier 1 Engineer turned manager wholoves comic books.

Yesterday and today we talked in depth about the 3 wheeled invention of the Can Am Spyder and how we liked it.

Today we discussed Woot.com and through that I have about ahlf a dozen people around me asking me questions about it and a few that have already bought stuff.

What do you expect when you put up a 4 port VPN Firewall for less than 30$ in a call center full of AT&T Network Nerds?


Ah well, good times.

Odd, but good times.

Sometime today I shall recieve a call or email giving me the details of my second interview for Makit Products.

Wish me luck.


Mostly because today I swapped shifts with someone so I had to be here at 7am and to amek up the hours from leaving early tuesday and friday, I am going to work an 11 hour shift.

WOOOO!

 Holy freaking storm Batman.

Whats with this?  the last thunderstorm only knocked over hald my fence, the last wind storm almost killed my new tree, now you've teamed up to finish both jobs?


JOG OFF NAZI!


Goodness.

 So, for all you Server types out there.  I need a bit of help.


I have a job interview tomorrow for a position that is a Network Admin/Systems admin/ Management trainee.


apparently they want a guy to replace their current 'IT GUY' who is moving to Europe at the end of this eyar so he needs to start training his replacement.

I got the Network Admin part down, in true management fashion, I am pretty sure I can BS my way through on that part.

The part I am hazy on is the Windows 2k3 stuff.

Anyhting specific I should dive into tonight/tomorrow?

I am passingly familiar with AD as I've used it to unlock accounts, and grant access in previous jobs, but thats about it, other than that I have basically nothing your slightly above average Helpdesk guy would have.

And before I just dove in, I was wondering if you had any places you would suggest I start, especially for a 'Generalist' type interview.


THANKS!

Happy Birthday Mel

Stolen from various people this morning:



you are in a mall when the zombies attack. You have -

[01] one weapon.
[02] one song blasting on the speakers.
[03] one famous person to fight alongside you. 


1. The halo Pistol.  (Scope, unlimited ammo, and an unbreakable hard hitting melee weapon)


2. Something to calm me down and keep me steady, maybe What I Got by Sublime, that song always cheers me up and when Zombies attack, I could probably use some cheer...


3.  Vin Deisel, he's a gamer and in good enough shape that he can probably do some of the thigns I can and imaginative enough to not ask why Im doing things.  

Stupid rib still hurts, mostly when laying down or getting up, so I usually wake up 4-5 times a night as I toss and turn.

Don't really have money (go-go no insurance contracting!!) to go to the Doc, and even if I did even if its cracked and not bruised all he is going to say it 'take it easy and use Advil if the pain is too much'


I just want it to heal.

I got up early this morning to go jogging got about 20 feet and felt like every step someone was jabbing my ribcage with a knife, so instead I settled for a mildly uncomfortable brisk walk.

Ah well, here's hoping this fixes itself soon.

Happy Birthday mischifthefooland  arioch1970

 Odd as this may sound, Michael Chiklis eyes are that bright angry blue that I would totally love to have.

 Glad the Eddie Izzard show rocked, dont nkow why we didnt go I think it was the fact that TicketMaster hung up on me both times I tried to buy tickets.

Hope everyhting is well out there.

Happy Birthday smokedamage.

I am putting in for a possible bid at the 8-5 M_F shift at work, if that fails, there is also a 10-7 shift (not as good since that would mean no school, but better for spending time with the other half)


Anyhow, wish me luck.


Oh, almost forgot had the palm tree installed by the pool and the day after it is being beaten up by savage winds.  I hate this but there is 0 I can do about it.


Oh, and the wind is so bad I dont trust myself on the bike, this is made of suck.
