    Happy putzy week-end (I hope I got the meaning right!).

    Definition 1: unintelligent person: somebody regarded as very unintelligent and unpleasant

    But I was just quoting Blazing Saddles because of the "ditto" comment.

    Note where google took me instead of your first definition :-D.

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=putz

    Did you look that up before or after you wished him a happy weekend full of them?

    If he looked it up first, I hope he was thinking of definition 3 when he posted. :w00t:

    My wife and I are celebrating our 21st anniversary today. As part of that, I'm taking next week off of work (my third vacation since 1988), ...

    Congrats on both events, Gus! Now all I have to do is Google a couple of words you used that I don't know. "Week Off"... Vacation... Anniversary... :hehe:

    Hope you all had a happy holiday! I'm baaack. And sorry, just need a moment of vent:

    [RANT!]

    Stupid lousy antique piece of crap system doing double/triple back to back updates and blowing up the .003 millisecond rounding of a datetime stamp in 2k5 when I'm trying to build an intelligent point in time auditing structure and developers who are being royal PITA's about me not wanting to allow for duplication of point in time because it just makes no goddamned sense to do shit like that and increase database traffic for crappy assed reasons...

    [/RANT]

    Thank you. And Steve... if I'd only known....

    PANTS!

    Heh... stop holding back. Say what you really mean! 😛

    My wife and I are celebrating our 21st anniversary today. As part of that, I'm taking next week off of work (my third vacation since 1988), and probably won't be around SSC much during that either.

    Should be back to my usual schedule of inanities, non-sequiturs, and politically inappropriate comments, Monday after next.

    Gail, while I'm gone can you keep an eye on database corruption forums and related material? Oh, and can you do the same while I'm here, too? And if I'm here, but not paying attention? Or if I'm here, paying attention, and posting junk? Or ... 😛

    Congratulations! We celebrated our 6th year on the 3rd. 😀 Here's to many more years of wedded bliss!
