The bite is painless, but the swelling doesn't end until ~ 9 months later.
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

Whenever my company has an Internet connectivity problem, I instantly get a line of people at my office door wanting to know when I will "get it fixed."  :rant:

I have developed a strategy to keep them away from my door.

As soon as I detect the problem, I send an e-mail to all in-house employees.

Dear Corporate Users,
We have a down internet connection. It's because someone deleted the internet when they dragged the little blue 'e' to the recycle bin. We are working with our internet service provider to restore the whole world wide web from tape backup. The problem is that the offsite storage for the WWW tape backup, is on another planet and with NASA grounded we have to use one of those Russian space flights to get the tapes. So it's a little slower than a regular restore.


Then I let them steam for an hour or so after I fix it. I let them know it's back up with a followup e-mail ...

Okay folks, it would appear that the Soyuz capsule was able to retrieve the tapes and restore the WWW. Thank you Russians! Three cheers for those guys!

Works like a charm!  :icon_twisted:

Now, THAT is a creative way to handle an all-too-familiar aggravation.

I agree, but you know there's one guy in the office...he's somwhere...saying, "Well now this doesn't make sense, you'd think by now...." totally not geting it :biggrin:

No. I'm not kidding at all. So be very careful not to drag that little blue 'e' to the recycle bin.  :biggrin:

I read a startling report today that says they are discovering 10,000 new computer viruses PER DAY!!!!

Don't ever think you're safe. And please don't give me that old "I have a Mac and I'm immune" bs.
