Hey folks,

I'm still here.  New $DAYJOB (since Jan) is SysAdmin at Rice University for
the Computer Science Department.  Academia is different, but admin'ing
Linux is, well, admin'ing Linux.  Most of the folks here want/like Ubuntu
(which I support for them), the University "standard" however is RHEL as
the IT department invested in a Satellite server (what a waste of money).

I am retired once -- in another 10 years (targetting 70) I will retire two
more times.  Three retirement checks should allow me enough income to
relax.  But I'm not really looking forward to it.  Retirement just sounds
boring.
