Notes:

According to one of the gold commercials, all the gold mined in all the history of mankind would not fill two Olympic sized swimming pools.

Last night I blocked my first user on YouTube. They had an obvious spammers name that I will not repeat. This is all it took. It was a friend request. Apparently, a friend request gives you more than I know about. The spammers want that acknowledgment for some reason. Need to figure out what it buys you.

We purchased some Dell towers that we had purchased in the past. Trouble is, the BIOS is updated. The new ones take three times as long to boot. The ere is some new feature involving remote system setup. We do not need this feature right now on these machines. They will be desktops. Some of our servers have this kind of access.

Some scientist isolated the hormone system that controls the decay of Christmas trees. Once you block the hormone production, the tree lasts twice as long before it begins to rot after it is cut away from the roots. Look for new and improved otherwise natural Christmas trees in the next couple years. What will they think of next?

It is very strange tweeting and facebooking with people who have left the company. Not used to staying in touch with coworkers who leave. It is really nice.

I had a dream last night that I was spreading gravel on Christal and Tony's driveway.
