I bought and set to charge a new UPS. This way I will have two running at the same time. Now, instead of 50min of backup time, I'll have oodles of backup time for these random power outages!!

It finally gives me an excuse to install that 40gig HD I've had here forever but been unwilling to interrupt my 146 days and counting uptime.

Then... while checking my email and wondering how a virus message came through to my inbox, I discovered that my Anti-Virus log wasn't rotating and the log file simply said that it had reached the maximum allowed size. A quick edit to the clamav.conf then syslog.conf and logrotate.d/syslog had me working fine.

Then... while restarting the Anti-Virus software, I noticed it was out of date. So a quick download, some compiling and a debug had me working fine.

Then... I realized that the message didn't travel through my mail server and THAT'S the reason the virus wasn't captured and removed.


Now that's what I call a sticky situation!!

what's up with that?

You miss two appointments because you have... oh I don't know... what's it called?? Oh ya, A LIFE!!!

Answer the phone you fuck heads when I call to say I can't make it and maybe things would be different.

...you need suppliments to mask the pain of your body breaking down. At (yet to turn 28), I have reached said twilight years.

I finally got off my lazy ass and purchased a bottle of triple threat... Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM. Well, I bought two bottles. The second one went to my (yet to turn 70) father.

Glucosamine:

Glucosamine is an amino acid that is naturally produced in the body. Glucosamine is a precursor to a molecule used in the formation and repair of cartilage. Treatment with glucosamine is based on the idea that oral consumption of the substance may increase to rate of formation of new cartilage by providing more of the necessary building blocks. The recommended dose of glucosamine in 1500mg each day for one to two months. Ongoing treatment if often continued if results are favorable.

Chondroitin:

Chondroitin is the most abundant glycosaminoglycan in cartilage and is partly responsible for the resiliency of cartilage. Chondroitin is also important in preventing the action of enzymes that destroy cartilage. The recommended dose of chondroitin is 800 mg each day (400 mg twice daily) for one to two months. Ongoing treatment if often continued if results are favorable. Most commonly chondroitin is take in combination with glucosamine.

MSM:

Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is taken because some believe it helps support health ligaments. While glucosamine and chondroitin have not undergone extensive clinical testing, MSM has not undergone any significant test to support its use. The theory is that the sulfer in MSM helps the body maintain healthy, flexible ligaments.

I've used glucosamine in the past and felt a lot better... so call me a hippy if you will, but if these 3-in-1 pills work, Jamieson Vitamins has a new lifelong customer.

I found out about the 3-in-1 wonder drug from this site.

BTW... keep the comments about the old people on the webpage to yourself :p
