C63 AMG dressed in white...

Here we have the innocent look. Stark white. Clean lines. Quiet.

Until you press the start button. Then your world gets notified that thunder comes in small packages. This one may only have a four liter V8 engine but the twin turbo charges makes it feel like you have a tiger by the tail. It literally wants to whip around and tear your face off. It's quick. Responsive. Nimble. It makes your blood race. Your ears sing. And you haven't even got it in gear yet. 

Slowly you ease her out of the show room and into the lot. From the corner of your eye you see the salesman in the passenger seat reach up... there's no panic handle that will keep him from squirming soon. My inner minion is going bee-boo-bee-boo...BANANA!

Why can't I test drive it in something other than urban bumper to bumper traffic. How to get this beauty to the freeway... if ever your think you have control over your inner psychopath, then never slip behind the wheel of one of these. You quickly find yourself pointing the sleek machine to the freeway and pray for some gaps to see what she can do...


Suffice it to say. She had me from the first growl. And the more she growled the more I became a besotted fool. Love it truly blind. This machine will make you fall in love with driving all over again.  Go test drive one. Then we talk!

        It’s been one of those days - again!         It’s feeling a lot like ground hog day.         A strange problem, corrupted our production AIX server        and we are restoring the OS from a mksysb (just the AIX naming for the root disk backup). I am hoping that the recovery will restore all the security information, which we were able to save from the old system. What exactly went wrong on it is still to be determined. Right now, it’s all hands on deck to get the system back.         Plans were made to switch to the DR (Disaster Recovery) site but we are not sure that the other systems will be able to continue operating on this side of the great divide, while the core system is sitting in the DR computer room.         First signs that things w...

Road under Construction - Detour Ahead...

It's been longer than I intended since I've updated this post. Today I grabbed my trusty Kindle reader and started in on a book titled " How to Get Ideas " by Jack Foster and Larry Corby . What a surprise when the first chapter is titled " Have Fun ".  Coincidentally with this, I've read the ICAS desk drop (it's an email on personal wellness, diet, work life balance etc.) wherein the TED talk of Caroline McHugh was discussed - it too arrived today. How you need to find your true self and stop being who the world wants you to be. How do they relate? Simple: fun ! If you are currently, where you are, whether it be your work, life, family, friends, whatever, and you are not having fun in each, then you are not being you. You are being something you where never meant to be. It's something I'm struggling with. For thirty years I've been working in computers, processing data, putting up with, well everyone. It all has me wondering is t...
