You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You can use the CONCATENATE function to do that, Jess.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Awesome, thanks -t!

See and I was thinking of if statements. Concatenate would work just fine.

I think I have finally beaten the Excel query into submission. Of course my frustration with it spurred me into putting more time in after I had submitted my timesheet, so that will become Saturday time. If the recipients don't like the results, they can stick it.

Yeah, I was thinking IF, too, but without actually seeing the data and how its arranged I'd have a hard time formulating something helpful.

Stick it to the man, Suzi! By working more than you meant to...that'll show 'em.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I purchased a Lacie Cloudbox NAS. Not a RAID system. Just wanted an iTunes server. My computer is consolidating my library on the new 3 TB drive. The progress bar is a thin sliver of green, and it's been nearly 2 hours now. I get the feeling this will be going when I come home from work tomorrow. Now to figure out how to get the AppleTV to see it directly. The Xbox has no problem. We shall see if I can figure it out.

ETA: when I woke up this morning, the progress bar was about pinkie wide. I think it's started on the video stuff now. Which is about a TB worth.

WTEVERLOVING FUCK.

Google is dumping Google Reader, the one thing that keeps me sane during the work day (aside from here): [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There are no alternatives!

Nah, just kidding. But I get why they want to consolidate. How much penetration does RSS have into non-tech savvy users? I did get someone email me telling my provocateuse RSS was down, but I'm filing them as passive aggressive, since it's not down--I just haven't updated in a millenium. I hope they appreciated the one new record after I responded.

I should check web logs, though.

Oh no! I love google reader, and don't want to explore alternatives! (But what are they? )

But what are they?

And can I get to them through our firewalls?
