I would if I could, but it's all business... I'll be lucky if I can find time to eat or have the energy to do it.

There is always a way, my son. Just let him hang on your leg while you conduct your business.

There's something funny about KK calling Azlan his son.

Take care, Az!

I'd say "have fun," but it's a business trip.  Still, sometimes they can be fun... in any case, I hope all goes to plan.

My uncle is a lawyer, so sometimes he has to travel to other jurisdictions to argue cases (on the client's dime).  Recently, he had to argue a case in New Zealand.  He told us all about the places he visited and the beautiful landscape... I still don't know if he won the case.

Of course, Az has gone to the state with the Insurance Capital of the World, so I guess that's less conducive to beautiful scenery.  Still, I'm sure that Connecticut has its charms--so I do hope that there will be pretty pictures.

I believe they left town to go to a beauty pageant...

One thing that's interesting about Connecticut is that despite it being tiny, it takes an unrealistically long time to drive through on I-95.

Hey! We are not! Just because we're basically a safe little bubble of preps, wiggers, and nerds who prove The Stepford Wives to be accurate... huh.

I'm not helping our case, am I, Nutmeggers?

My site is right across from Subway's world headquarters and the building is owned by them.   :U

Things did not look so good this morning... our PXE server was jostled in transit and the motherboard came loose.  It's a tower server and it is dead, no time to troubleshoot, corporate is next daying a replacement.  Apparently this type of case mounts its motherboards by pop-on mounts and secures the board with a pair of very long screws, which disappeared and were nowhere to be found.

My desktop guys were used to pulling new PCs, not recycling used ones, so they forgot to pack power cords for the desktops...  :B

Luckily the facilities manager packed 20 extra ones, enough to cover our 16 workstations...

What a day...
