A rather boring quest through the smelly caverns of corporate IT

Emergency
David's creative juices have run dry! I fear a proportionate decrease in heckling content, followed by trembling, cold sweats, and finally a conversion to conservative politics.
I awoke before lunch. The intensity of light was incredible, and the birds were singing too loud. I walked downstairs without falling and turned off the ice maker on the fridge. I fear I will not be needing it for a while.
I poured myself a glass of water (a mixer more usually taken with whisky). Further experimentation showed that if I drank double the amount of diet tonic the aspartame made up for the lack of gin.
And so it begins: comment moderation. What's the first thing to go in a dictatorship? That's right - the free press. The potato revolutionary has become the spud tyrant. Maybe I should rescind all previous calls for you to attain political office. I've seen the future and now I'm scared.
I knew it would be thus -- the irritability, the liberal flailing. I don't know if 2-day international air express would be enough to save you in time!
P.S. I turned on comment moderation because I had a vile piece of comment spam on "Splashes of Red."
I studied Politics, Philosophy, and Economics at Oxford University. I subsequently pursued my love of computing as a programmer analyst, mainly in the London investment banking world (credit derivatives). My current interest is trying to understand why crap people are allowed to produce crap software over and over again.
