Were they an influential family in Buffalo?
metalpeter - 09/09/09 18:42
That Made it to the BBC, WOW, I heard someone saw it on CNN and that shocked me, but the BBC that is more shocking.
joshua - 09/09/09 11:25
Wow - news reaches far and wide these days indeed. I know I shouldn't marvel at it but I always do.

Work at 1:30am
Category: work
Cutting over some core systems from one datacentre to another, so I'm here at 1:30 so I can run two scripts, wait 2 hours, run the same two scripts again and then go home.

Why can't they give me remote access for this sort of thing?

Still, gives me time to catch up on some work I didn't do during the week.
joshua - 07/25/09 14:14
Are you serious? That would drive me absolutely fucking mad. That is EXACTLY why they should have given you access privileges. My brother had to wait forever to get VPN access because of security concerns, the auditors monitor that stuff, etc. Clearly they are taking the piss out of you.

Shakespeare in the Park
Hey all,

(e:ladycroft), (e:theecarey) and myself are heading down to Shakespeare in the Park this evening. It's 'The Tempest' at the moment I believe, and kick-off is at 7pm. We'll be aiming to get there 6-6:30, so if anyone is heading down or would like to join us, feel free.

Laters, folks.

Rory.
metalpeter - 07/08/09 20:00
Hope you all had a great time. I was to worn out to really enjoy myself plus I didn't want to feel like the 3rd wheel. Also sorry for Missing the Shower also (tried to get there but, it just didn't work out that way) [wedding I know I can get to and will be there].
paul - 07/07/09 23:47
We were going to take (e:terry)'s mom and sister who are in town visiting but by the time they got in and we ate it was too late ;(
theecarey - 07/07/09 23:43
The Tempest was AWESOME!

but soooooo COLD. That was a lot of fun though-- freezing our asses off, huddling for warmth, making fun of people in flip-flops.

Thanks for inviting me/having me :)
tinypliny - 07/07/09 21:17
I missed it as well. But I will be at your wedding. :)
mrmike - 07/07/09 21:05
Ditto to what Jenks said, just got home from dinner with the kids (Fat Bob's, yum) and a little bit of the Bidwell Concert. So, was in the neighborhood.
jenks - 07/07/09 18:45
Hope you had a fun shower! Wish I could have made it. :(

1 year quit.
365 days, 8 hours, 24 minutes and 7 seconds smoke free.

7307 cigarettes not smoked.

QAR2,190.00 and 1 month, 25 days, 19 hours of your life saved.

I think I deserve to be proud of that achievement.
rory - 07/12/09 06:39
Thanks for the comments everyone!
metalpeter - 07/01/09 18:04
First of all Congrats. Second of all yeah you should be proud, but not to much. I have known people who stopped for years and then something happens and they start smoking again and can't stop, all it takes is one. That being said I hope that never happens and you are smoke free for the rest of your life.
hodown - 07/01/09 10:17
That's amazing! Go you :)
tinypliny - 07/01/09 09:48
That is best thing I have heard ever. :) You ROCK! \m/
paul - 07/01/09 09:42
That's awesome, congratulations!
mrmike - 07/01/09 09:31
You do, brag to all within earshot and beyond
james - 07/01/09 08:57
Well, here is to another 354 days, 8 hours, 24 minutes and 7 seconds smoke free.
jason - 07/01/09 08:47
Good on you, mate.
