Asleep at the Wheel 40 Miles Left to Go
Well, my vacation is now over. It was a great few days, with some exceptional company. I’ll add more about it later, but today is the start of getting back on the horse (not to mention the third quarter of the year), which includes updating this thing once in a while. I’ve decided to make […]
…the migration is finally done. There will be garbage collection until the end of July, and then I get to eBay a ton of old Compaq shit. thousands of websites, over a hundred thousand mail accounts, and thousands of domains moved. It’s been a challenging project on a number of levels. The hard part is […]
I guess Pat couldn’t bear to be the only one whining and complaining about everything, so he made sure he’d have company. Ah well – better there than here, that’s all I can say.
So I listen to “An Open Letter to NYC” from the new Beastie Boys CD, and I find myself incredibly – I mean INCREDIBLY– homesick. The BQE was the road to the airport, I’ve traveled on the 1-9 lines, I know the Battery to the top of Manhattan. New York does make it happen, and […]

My calf still hurts – it shouldn’t take this long to heal, should it? oh wait – 6-8 weeks – riiight. Thankfully, it’s only a dull ache now, so I can plod through and it feels relatively decent after 10-15 minutes of work. I’m thinking there’s just a little bit of scar tissue there, still. […]
Awesome.
Well, the results of the migration are in, and it was a success all the way around. The most common problem this time around was people who were unaware there was a migration on (and the only reason they noticed was because they couldn’t upload new content because the conventions changed a little). All in […]
Just got an e-mail from our Captain, and it looks like we’ll be dropping down to Tier 5. He received a note regarding how moving up and dropping down after the first three games will be made, and it goes something like this: “The benchmark for moving up in this shuffle (as told to me […]
