Good news, bad news

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The good news is, I know, without a doubt, that our weekly tape backups have all been good for over a month now, and I won’t even have to do my normal, routine tests to determine that.

The bad news? Well, I think you can probably guess now that you know I spent some quality time searching through weekly tape backups, can’t you?

On the whole though, since I found the information in question, it’s not too bad a tragedy, on the other hand, there’s not enough information avaiable to figure out who needs to learn another lesson, which is always a little disappointing. 🙂

    Thanks to Andy for pointing to the list of Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 issues. I haven’t installed it on anything yet, so this’ll be a nice resource to have. BTW, I’m not neglecting my job, we don’t actually have anything running 2000 in the whole office. It’s either XP or NT here. I do,…

    Yup, that’s a fresh, new Movable Type installation over at that new domain. Really wasn’t all that difficult and didn’t take too long, considering I was only working on it while waiting for actual work processes to finish and would have to stop every 5 minutes or so. 🙂 I guess if it had my…

On Saturday, despite the 90 plus degree heat, I spent part of the afternoon watching a Civil War skirmish re-enactment. (Yeah, I have the sunburn to show for it.) It was quite fascinating to…

    I’ve been pretty much head’s down in Access all day so far. I had a rather complicated request for some reporting from our membership database, so I pulled all of that into Access to mess around with some queries and I’ve got it 90% done, but I’m running into a slight roadblock involving the exact…
