"Their behaviour was more investigative, more inquisitive and a lot less aggressive"

Many feel this way about Brian Johnson.

Oh SNAP! That's what I thought!

Yeah, but it's usually, "Try logging out of eWatson, then back in. That didn't work? Try logging out of Windows and back in. That didn't work? I'll have a developer take a look."

Back in my Novell server days, I took their "Service and Support" class. We used to joke that Microsoft didn't have an equivalent class because it would simply be "Reboot and Reinstall."

I don't miss being in IT. But it's soooooo good to see Jen back!!

I bet Jen Bozo has been lurking for months waiting for the right amount of silliness to post something not boring and not at all dive related.

And Scott... your facial hair is freaking me out in your clinton avatar. Make it go back to Moss.

Aloha hard,

Only because I'm VERY silly, and haven't been diving much. What else could I do?

This thread is like a punch in the chest during cardiac arrest. It's doing some good but one isn't enough. Keep going or we'll go back to being dead.

Way to bring a thread to a screeching halt Ben. Sheesh.

Maybe we talk about Jen's cake fixation and ignore him.

I said keep going, not start whining. Don't you have a blog that needs updating or something? (Yes)
