Life in IT (Aug 11 2003 17:41 GMT) - Some days you're sitting here and everything's working well, no one really is hitting you up with requests and you're almost, dare I say it, a little bored.

Needless to say, every day since coming back from vacation (including last Sunday, and this past Friday night!) has been in the latter group. |

Huch (Aug 11 2003 17:41 GMT) - The Dow Jones average responded to the murder of Saddam's sons by rising over 100 points. The President seems unconcerned that his actions might set a precedent.

Anyone who has read the "eye for an eye" passage of the Bible will get the point. |
