nabling the new messaging solution to support more than 100,000 e-mails a day, with 99.999% system availability.

Oooh, five nines. That always gives me a warm fuzzy. I don't get to see that much since most of my work is Windows.

I've always thought that you have the best nickname on FR. Been meaning to tell you before this.

First the Pope gets an ipod and now this? The Pope must like Silicon Valley.

It had to be Son computers ... The only windows they're interested in are stained glass. For sure, Microsoft Windows is no work of art! Apples have had a bad rep since Adam and Eve bit the big one ...

Maybe, but it ain't pretty. I just checked the sendmail on this boxen. It handles reverse bang addresses. How long has that been a dead standard?

Only thing missing is the kitchen sink... oh, wait... there it is.

Well, that's apropos.

There are three things that convinced me that G-d not only exists, but that he loves us.

  1. Coffee
  2. Chocolate
  3. Beer

25% of my last admin evaluation required 0 hours 0 minutes downtime per year. I had a server up for over 1220 days before we had to physically move it. I mirrored and covered (at reduced capacity) until we got her set back up at the new location. Last I heard, she's still sucking up the kilowatt hours and pumping hot air into the server room.

Those apps were rock solid, and I had admin scripts to keep everything cooking.

Get a copy of Knoppix and boot it up. Under Toys (I think) is a small programm called "bb." It's quite amazing.

God gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone

Do you know what you want? You don't know for sure
You don't feel right, you can't find a cure
And you're gettin' less than what you're lookin' for
You don't have money or a fancy car
And you're tired of wishin' on a falling star
You gotta put your faith in a loud guitar

God gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to everyone (oh yeah)
God gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul of everyone

Now listen...

If you wanna be a singer, or play guitar
Man, you gotta sweat or you won't get far
Cause it's never too late to work nine-to-five
You can take a stand, or you can compromise
You can work real hard or just fantasize
But you don't start livin' till you realize --

I gotta tell ya

God gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to everyone
God gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to you
Put it in the soul
God gave rock and roll to you

(to everyone he gave the song to be sung)

Gave rock and roll to you
Gave rock and roll to everyone
God gave rock and roll to you

(to everyone he gave the song to be sung)

Gave rock and roll to you
Saved rock and roll for everyone
Saved rock and roll

I know life sometimes can get tough!
And I know life sometimes can be a drag!
But people We have been given a gift
We have been given a road
And that road's name is...
Rock and Roll!

>99.999
>>Oooh, five nines

It could be a trick.
If you look at the digits
up side down, they read,

"666.66."
I think we know what that means . . .
Scott's the Anti-Christ!!!
