Well, gosh, Microsoft isn’t perfect.

Well, gosh, Microsoft
isn’t perfect. Surprise! I’m in a training class on Windows 2000 for a
few days. We were setting up the DNS for our little workshop and
kaboom! It’s dead. The root DNS server couldn’t lookup itself, the subdomains were dead, yuck! It’s a mess. The instructor – a nice guy named Dave
(no this isn’t our Dave, I just thought his picture midway down the
page was cool) – is working through lunch trying to get everything up
and running again. Stay tuned.

Saw Godzilla 2000 this weekend.

Saw Godzilla 2000 this weekend. It was everything I expected. Classic,
funny, and cheezy. I won’t give anything away, but some of the lines
were truly historic. See this movie unless you think Godzilla is just a
guy in a rubber suit.

I’ve made a new friend

I’ve made a new friend by the name of Teddy. We take long peaceful
walks twice a day, eat together, read together. Pretty much everything
but sleep together. We’re fast becoming friends. Perhaps we’ll get to
that point at some point.

In case anyone was consumed

In case anyone was consumed with worry about the parity rebuild I just
mentioned, it finished successfully. You are free to go back to your
worry-free, adoring state of mind. Thank you and have a nice day.

My Adoring Fans

From email, “where, oh where, is iPaulo? Your adoring public wants to
know…” Your adoration warms my heart and gets me writing and linking
while I wait for a server to rebuild a stripe from parity. (adore that
geeky talk, eh?)

I know this is no excuse to neglect my fans, but I’ve been pretty
busy with work. Two fellow IT people have resigned, summer is the time
to get tons of stuff done around campus, yadda yadda yadda. Also, I may
have been tied up playing Deux Ex a little bit.

On a more serious note, Sir Alec Guiness’s death was a bummer. I
have never seen any of his early work, which is suppose to be
excellent. Ain’t it Cool news recommends seeing The Ladykillers, Kind Hearts and Coronets, or The Man in the White Suit. I think I’ll try to find Kind Hearts first since the esteemed John Bishop recommends it.
