It’s just not right… getting

It's just not right... getting up at five aye emm to go to work on a Sunday morning. Blech! On a positive note, I got my old system up and running again. Take some gutted parts and a new (cheap-ass) mobo... add a splash of electricity... BONG! There you go! I spend a lot of time last night getting my VPN software tweaked into running since our VPN concentrator has such specific prerequisites on inbound tunnel requests. It's all good now. T-Minus 30 minutes before this maintenance window starts and I can replace two edge firewalls in out datacenter. Yippie. Not.

This story about a national guardsman legally changing his name to Optimus Prime is inspiring (link courtesy of Hatley). He even has a weblog... umm... sorta. Yes, I think we should all change our names to some cool fictional characters. What would your name be?

Damn this coffee sucks. You know when you come to work before any good bean establishments are open and brewing, you've come to work much too early. I would even take ghetto diner coffee over this crap. This rivals ship coffee... the squids know what I'm saying.

Ah yes… ship coffee.  I would always put my fingers behind the sight-glass on the urn: if you could still see them refract light, it was (somewhat) safe to drink.  And then there was the rice, which was COMPLETELY devoid of any flavor whatsoever.  I mean, it would actually absorb other flavors lingering in your mouth.  I theorized that if one was to combine the coffee and rice in a controlled injection, the reaction would be so violent, that you wouldn’t even need the nuclear reactors anymore.  Nobody took me seriously.
