Sorry

in the early morning on Friday, the 23rd of April 2004 by Chad

OK, one last time I apologize for not posting anything in such a long time. But, I’d like you to know the big project taking all of my time is now released for public consumption.
http://www.WiSSH.com. WiSSH is a Windows Remote Desktop over SSH tunneling client. If you need remote access to your home or network resources, and you have SSH as a gateway system, this is what you’re looking for. Clean, simple, and powerful. With lots of features that will make network administrators EXTREMELY happy using this compared to any other method I have ever seen.
Right now, only the Standard Edition client is up for release. We are going to polish off the corporate version once I get back from vacation, and then complete work on the rest of the entire product line. But the rush is over. I can relax and pay attention to the mrs’s again… hmmm… she’s around here somewhere I think…
I was having lunch in a Wendy’s the other week. Latino staff, as is common, but very helpful, and everything you would want as staff in a fast food place. Efficient and clean.
But I sat in a booth next to a guy about 30 years old and his father. They were having a rather intense discussion. Over a piece of furniture they just built, it turns out.
It seems that the old man broke a small piece of trim on an entertainment center accidentally. They were putting it together for a customer. Apparently you couldn’t see the damage unless you knew what to look for. It was a screw that stripped out the screw hole. The father was upset about it, but more upset that they didn’t fix it. He thought that they should have done something to repair the damage, even if they had to replace the piece which would have ate their profit. As it was, its an easy fix, they have a replacement thread piece in the hardware store for a few cents.
But regarding the son. I have never in my life seen someone waste so much energy defending doing a half-ass job. The entire conversation he was going on and on about how no one would notice, its not like it was load bearing, etc. Then he got into verbally berating the father because the old man didn’t have a plan on how to fix the problem right away. This was the most pathetic display I have seen in a very long time. The old man talked about how thats whats wrong with America today, why American cars suck, why our jobs are going overseas, etc. By the time I couldn’t take anymore and I got up and left, I could barely restrain myself from shaking hands with the old man, and bitch slapping the son.
I’m surprised the son wasn’t a government contractor.

People think that I must be a very strange person. This is not correct. I have the heart of a small boy... it's in a glass jar on my desk.
