What I missed while I was gone:

Well first of all, you missed a great show last night, unless you were there. 🙂 Midnight Oil still rocks with the best of them, I have never seen a band (and I’ve seen a lot of bands!) play with that much passion and intensity. They still play that way, 25 years after their first album came out. Amazing.

Thanks to Geek, and others, I found out the CARP recommendations were rejected by the Library of Congress. Excellent!

nf0 points us to yet another news aggregator, Aggie. I can’t add this one to the comparison article because it requires .Net framework, which I do not have. (I still use 98 at home and 2000 on my laptop..) Anyone want to volunteer to test it and report back?

Well, after the late night last night, I scheduled today for an off day, so I’m at home, doing some writing for my other site. It’s a nice break, and it’s very nice to find some time to do some real soul-searching in my writing. I don’t spend enough time with that. You can read my review of not only the show last night, but my personal feelings about being back in Bogart’s 13 years after the first trip there to see Midnight Oil and the rambling personal thoughts that late-night road trips can bring up here.

    Hmm, now that I read that last post, the thoughts weren’t random at all. I originally started out thinking they would be, but it didn’t last long, I got off on a tangent that wound up being the whole post. I also meant to talk about the fact that I’ve added a handful of blogs…

    I just spent somewhere in the vicinity of 20 minutes trying to help one of our users understand something.

    William left a comment to the effect that the version of Red Hat I was trying to install uses LILO and that might be the thing that’s interfering with the NT-based install. (That’s why it worked flawlessly with 98 and not on this new server.) Getting a later version that uses a different boot loader…

    Yeah the morning’s been busy, (isn’t work always busy in IT?) but it’s been busy in a more calm, cool way than things have been. It’s been busy in the way that has you holed up by yourself working on stuff in your own office, not in dealing with and explaining things to a bunch…

    Just taking a break from A+ studying this afternoon to install PC Inspector File Recovery. I picked it up from an issue of Lockergnome a few days ago. It looks like it might be pretty useful bit of freeware, I’ll let you know. 🙂 Follow these topics: Uncategorized
