 @scottalanmiller said: @johnhooks That's so cool. I wonder how that is generated. It's based on sites you've visited before, but I don't know how they monitor for updates. I get some random junk too. Like the other day I got something about Lil Wayne walking off stage somewhere. I have never read anything about Little Wayne, so I don't know why I got that one.

 It's amazing what moving a few lines of code around can do, lol. I was working on a PowerShell script that runs against AD, and since our AD is so large now (35k users!), the script was chewing up 2GB of ram every time it ran. I moved 1 line of code up about 4 lines, and whammo! Script is tracking to run faster than it did before, and it's currently only using 100 megs of ram, lol.

 Lunch, leftover bbq ribs from dinner last night. Yummy!

 About to leave work early due to the impending over-hyped snow storm. Schools were closed 24 hrs before the storm was scheduled to hit. At least it's an excuse for a half day today and I can also be late tomorrow.

Half of those people in that thread would get their butts fired by a good MSP if they responded like that to them instead of in a thread. None of them even bothered to read the part where the MSP told them that they didn't have service. Even the OP posts a thread specifically about their managed service and then posts a quote saying that they had no such service and never realized that THAT was the issue at hand!!

 Just had 3 new servers delivered.... and slammed / dropped off the cart by the FedEx guy... who promptly got an earful from me. An earful of swear words and insults.

 Apparently I am the most Spiced Up person on SW this week. That's awesome. I really wish that I knew which comments, threads, posts were the ones that people found so interesting or insightful or whatever.
