Hey guys, how often do you leave your computer running all night? now if you all want to be considered good people then you should definatly check out Folding@Home, it's been around for a long time but i figured i would post something about it. In this case, helping save lives is simply as easy as installing one little program.
I've just started a team for FusionMods.Net if anyone is interested. The Team number is 52440 and you can DL the software at http://folding.stanford.edu/
awesome. They should fear you. seeing as how crazy you can already be at work. You could accidently trip on every Cat5/6 and bring your entire center down...but I didnt tell you that.
RIP Carlin, you were my Comedic hero.

in honor of Carlin, I downed our network aggregator (self recovering so it was back in 2mins) and during the down time I ran around quoting Carlin's lines from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
I don't know if you guys follow news with Ford very much. About maybe a month ago they said they were going to reduce salary to my, i dunno "branch" by 15%. So last thursday they announced that my entire division would be phased out and they fired every single salary based employee. No one saw it coming at all. I'm agency and so is most of my department so we're all still there atleast through thursday, and after that we have no idea. Hopefully I'll find something new really fast, but with michigans awesome economy it's kind of hard to say for sure.
lol worst part was, today I found a great fixer-upper house for an even better price. It's cheap enough though that I think I'm going to put in a bid, and cross my fingers on finding a new job before I'm laid off. I'm thinking I'll atleast be working through next week, lol.
If anyone has any connections in south east Michigan, lemme know :P
If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?
Holy crap... well this is starting to be a fantastic week... Dude good luck with that house... I'm getting kicked out in november and I MIGHT have a place to go... if any of you know anybody looking for an intelligent hardware troubleshooter... lemme know :) faceless if my new place falls though then I'd be willing to help you fix your place for a while :D
ok so i think i am ready, but i am pretty sure the folding stat site is down, so does anyone know offhand the team number i enter, after i enter my name?
**safety note**
try not to think of the price of the part your cutting in half.
