This Mornings Crash Proved I'm An SRP Junkie
I couldn't believe it . I was going through withdrawal symptoms, sweating along with chills, shaking and muscle aches. You don't miss your water until the well runs dry.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Same here. This site is something I can surf from work w/o issue as my PC churns the latest code I wrote. Hitting the news sites gets old after the second time around and EBay, well you know...

There are packages called 'ETL' that can do all of the folding and bending of data and pump it into a data warehouse, I know...“If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got.” (A. Einstein)

Since I can't control myself with the amount of time I spent on SRP, I'll say that I got more work done when the system was down that I have in a long time. Ugh, that's not something that I'm proud to admit.
