Irony:  Asking me to explain technical details around Oracle & Unix and how various applications use their security measures to people who do this for a living, while strong-arming them into accepting complete reversals of their current thinking about these processes.

Yep. There goes the support system. Brain shut down will commence in 5...4...3..

Yeah. I'll find you sis. Lots of long long days ahead...

Talk to you soon!

       Ick. I have convinced work that I know shit about Linux, when, in fact...I maintain a cheat sheet and essentially copy and paste to get through my day. *comfies*

*snugs* See that's the thing! I really do know shit about it! Doesn't matter, I got tapped.

Now, I'm learning things the hard way. Course that's nothing new for me. Just hope some of it sticks this time.
