Mayonnaise

What a pleasant evening down The Green Tree with a few friends, why can’t life be like this evening more generally? Is it asking to much? I can’t think it is, I mean, all I am wanting is good company, friendly banter and a fine pint. Is that to much for life to be like? I hope not.

Work is still blah, though Dell are finally shipping new RAM to arrive tomorrow at the datacenter so we can sort our the flakey web server and get it back in the cluster. Woo Hoo! I’m so easily pleased.

E-mail gateways that have virus scanners that tell me I have ‘sent some user a virus and if I ran anti virus software I wouldn’t have done so’, are really starting to piss me off. I’m replying to their postmaster and support addresses informing them that their mail gateways are slandering my good name and have they not got a clue about SoBig.f. No ones bothered to reply yet (except the people at globalprotector.net who are all over quota and bouncing their mail). I’m thinking it will make no difference, but hey, it pisses me off.

I think perhaps I am turning into a grumpy old man. Many many things are pissing me off / annoying me, and I am increasingly frustrated by peoples lack of common sense or ability to just to their jobs. Maybe this is normal? I don’t know, but it make me think I’m just a grumpy old fart, which can’t be good. I thought like a fine wine I would mellow with age, but it ain’t happening. Ho hum, perhaps I just need a good shag?

In other news I am finally getting my Hayes Mags sorted out and have some nice Goodridge hose sets at the ready. Oh, and I have no milk for the morning. Tomorrow with thus be a bad day. You have been warned.

    Send it to the virus companies’ marketing departments, threatening a slander suit. One copy at a time.

    I actually e-mailed the authors of the mail server concerned, and suggested they might like to add a feature that disabled its rather rude reply if the virus found was of the kind that fakes From: fields. They replied, amazingly, and thanked me for my suggestion. So if Ipswitch IMail Anti-Virus gets a new feature soon… I’ll be stunned 😉

    Ipswitch? I thought they had clues already. (They make WS-FTP, the tolerable ftp client for Windows.) Oh dear.
