Getting the CCIE is no joke though :p

Just need to take some of your EQ/WoW time off for a year or two (considering you already have 4-5 yr field experience). It is like getting a six pack, stick with the plan is the key.

After getting it done, you will have a lot more freedom to go back and slay digital monsters, loot pixel chests, save fictional princesses, or bang real princesses :)

FFS Ubuntu you are such a piece of shit sometimes.

Why is it $currentyear and yet you aren't flagging mounts as 64 bit and so now I can't go over 16TB for a filesystem?

That would be fine if you didn't allocate all 10TB of the first drive to root so now I can't unmount it easily and fix it ....

One of my former night-shift coworkers is now living in the woods somewhere in Virginia, high on acid (actually he already ran out) trying to build a 'wizard tower' out of mud bricks.

He knows nothing about wilderness survival and only brought prop weapons with him.

I had a dream last night.

I dreamed that I was living in Jamaica, then I went and applied to a position on Raytheon, (the missile company, somehow that is where they were located).

I go to the interview, and it is on an open space lobby where plenty of employees come in and out. The first interview is with this fine looking woman, and I turn on my charming Jargon talk, and she likes me and her supervisor proceeds with the second interview.

So in the second interview we are talking about rocketry, and I made the comment/joke that I like fireworks and sometimes they fall on people killing/burning them.

So my interview ends, the supervisor tells me I wont be hired, and I am escorted out of the lobby by the first recruiter. The recruiter, slips and falls and hits her head on the floor and starts having seizures. Since I was the closest one when she slipped, I started helping her, calling 911, calming her down, making her as comfortable as possible. At this point the their notes papers from the interview are laying around and I read that the reason for not hiring me, was because of my comment regarding fireworks and killing people. This was referred to on my notes as my "activities"

So I read this, looked at the supervisor and tell her... "This is Raytheon, the company that literally makes death rain from the skies, and you are not hiring me because I made an obvious joke about people dying... Look I wanted to make bombs on my spare time I will make them in your lab, my mind is blown"(at this point on my dream I am making the headblown.gif gesture). All the people of the lobby are gathered around us, due to the seizure and they all look at the supervisor with the same mind blown face.

So the supervisor, turns around and says." well I guess you are hired then".

Sorry to burst your bubble but they asked me nothing technical in my interviews, just 30 minutes of textbook talk.

And then I proceed to have sex with the seizure girl, who was still having seizures.

I have the weirdest dreams.

I had a dream last night that I was late for work at Lockheed (which I do not work at), but the It clown was waiting for me in the woods and for some reason it was very important that I went there and met him. Being a dream, of course I did, he sat there at the edge of this circle rubbing his hands while I built a fire. The fire wouldn't light because there was a dead rabbit in the wood. The clown kept smiling at me and bending to look closer without moving from his spot, still rubbing his hands. Then I woke up.
