Please tell me the last 2 years haven't been a dream? That would suck majorly.

Nah, what you've missed is this: Everybody knows that Leslie Nielsen died a long time ago. But every so often, someone will post a RIP anyway just for fun and get downvoted to oblivion.

But now, TPFKAPB took the opportunity to do so while voting is disabled... As a joke, of course. It's not like he thinks that Leslie just died (at least I hope not!)

Why can't I be applicable like John? - Me, April 2011

Monday Morning Fun

We had a fairly catastrophic failure over the weekend.

Everything is back up apart from one process.

This process initiates in a web app, sends messages through an ESB into a web service, the ESB then returns the result of the query to the web app that displays the results.

This last bit is timing out, no-one knows why and everyone is denying responsibility.

Today is going to be one massive sh*t flinging exercise with the only aim of the game to have as little sticking to you as possible at the end.

Fun.

Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

Give it a chance! It's Monday morning, and we're none of us at our best then... If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

If i am not mistaken this was said by Bond when he was tortured on that chair with almost no bottom I still prefer Pierce Brosnan for James Bond than this guy.

Since voting is off in the lounge I have no further reason to visit CP.
I have planned a two week vacation to Portugal to think life over and get away from CP and more importantly, not voting.
Well, maybe CP had little to do with this vacation. I guess you'll never know.
Anyway, see you all when I get back! Big Grin | :-D

It's an OO world.

5! Damn, I can't vote anymore!! A train station is where the train stops. A bus station is where the bus stops. On my desk, I have a work station.... _________________________________________________________ My programs never have bugs, they just develop random features.

I laughed at that, and my first instinct was to try to +5 it...

Do enjoy the Port, the wine and hopefully the weather. If you are driving stop in at Rioja and enjoy the Temperillo, we did! Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

It is extraordinary how the volume has dropped since the voting got nailed. Or is it just thanksgiving weekend has overloaded all the US participants I wonder. Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

While that would help explain the lack of yanks, there's also a deficiency of poms. I'm tellin' ya, they're writing down their posts and savin' 'em up until Chris and the Hamsters bring back voting, so they don't miss out!
