From JimRob...
Howdy everyone!
Yup. John brought the new db server on stream this morning about 4:00 am after much stress testing. Its now our primary db server and the old one is serving as back-up. We immediately noticed a tremendous boost in speed and throughput, but of course there were very few posters online. Was praying it would continue under a load. Thank God, it appears to be. The new eight cpu db server is very powerful and has many gigabytes of ultra fast memory and solid state storage devices, etc. (and thats just about the limit of my technical vocabulary). But it appears to be working just fine.

ELVIS COSTELLO & THE BRODSKY QUARTET: THE JULIET LETTERS, PART 2The second part opens with a rather extreme form of junk mail.
Elvis Costello & the Brodsky Quartet: This Offer is Unrepeatable
The text is a suicide note that turns from blase and bored with life to desperate, and is finally lost in a dream.
Dear Sweet Filthy World
This is the name of a firm of solicitors which recurs as a motif among images of both childhood and adult disillusionment. The authorship of the two verses is divided between brother and sister, Michael and Jacqueline, while the music is Michaels.
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe
This is the work of Paul Cassidy, although between us, Michael and I proposed the related material in the bridge section. The events described in the letter should be familiar to those who lived in England in the spring of 1992.
This Sad Burlesque
A cynical writer quotes the contents of a letter that he has received. This soldiers letter is closely related to one sent to me during the buildup to the Gulf War. From the concluding mayhem, a single note emerges, leading into Michael Thomas Last Post. Despite its title, this piece does not have any military significance. It seems to me to have a clear sense of peace, though not without strong feeling. It also serves as a preface to the final songs.
I Thought Id Write to Juliet & The Last Post
A man who believes in the afterlife leaves a letter for his atheist lover, which, we must assume, she is reading after his demise.
The First to Leave
The final letter is also delivered from a place beyond death, although the intention is not at all morbid. So it is a song of condolence and renewal which brings The Juliet Letters to, what I believe is, a hopeful conclusion.
The Birds will Still be Singing
Next week Ill be returning to popular music with a project I first tried out in college radio in Philadelphia over 40 years ago, called Rockumentary.

The Almanac said we would have a wet winter & we certainly have...thank goodness!
What ever happened with the “tumbleweed” house?
Did they have to pay clear it themselves?

Love the new server....thanks Gents, it rocks! *Hugs*
To: AZamericonnie
It was saying wetter for us, too, but....meh....
I’m not sure what happened. He said on the video he was dumping
them in the ditch behind his house, and they probably just
blew on down the road. LOL!
Which is what tumbleweeds do. :)

Don’t you be sorry at all sweetpea...dreams are funny things! LOL
Does that mean you got some extra sleep? Hope so!
I have fallen asleep before with the TV on & woke to find my dreams were in sync with the show. Going to go make some dinner & then off tomorrow to clear out FIL’s apt.
Hope to finish by mid week at the latest.
