The best part of having HD? Watching the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleading squad.

This CD has been getting alot of play time at work, on the road, and at home.

I shudder at the implications of me (of all people) listening to Christian Rock.

One the move

Ponderous.com got kicked out of the office where it has been since 1998 and its now on a new host. Thanks to JoeB for graciously allowing me to share his AN Hosting account.

Out with the old, in with the new

I drove off the local Saturn lot in one of these today:

Traded in the old Ponderous mobile and bought a new one. The old one needed new tires and new brakes, badly. I spent a good while debating about getting those new tires and brakes, or putting that money towards a new ride. Yesterday I figured that it would be a good idea to test drive a new Vue. Never had any major issues with my 03 Vue, and the 08s were completely new. After the test drive I had made up my mind, new ride for me.

A day in the life…

Importance: High

Due to a slight problem with the monthly Sales Tax update we were unable to update the tax tables in Syspro. Until those tables can be updated users will be unable to access Syspro. The issue has been identified and we expect it to be resolved some time this morning.

Sorry for any inconvience.

The slight problem has managed to turn into a major problem. Until it can be resolved users are still locked out of Syspro.

Its been awhile since the last update so I’ll put it to you this way:

One step forward, two steps back.

Progress is being made though.

Confucius says:
Do not wish for quick results, nor look for small advantages. If you seek quick results, you will not reach the ultimate goal. If you are led astray by small advantages, you will never accomplish great things.

At this point its almost time to end the work day. If Syspro is up in the morning consider yourself lucky!

I get the car paid off and what happens the next week? The A/C stops cooling. It isn’t completely out, just when its hot outside the air output is just barely cool. It use to be ice cold. I’m convinced that its just a refrigerant issue and not a burned out compressor. When I get a chance to run by a car parts store I’ll pick up a recharge kit and see if that helps. If not it’ll be up to a mechanic to determine the problem and hopefully fix it.
