I've had numerous calls and emails coming in from people needing
support, one on top of another. There are three people who have
project deadlines to meet. Two computers are needing repair to be
picked up today. It's 12:07 PM now, and I'm going to try to leave and
get lunch. I've not eaten since Monday night, and last night I had
about four hours of sleep. For more information about the current

After a 20 hour work day, on the third day of a three-day long fast,
I'm a bit tired not having eaten since Monday. Despite the fasting,
and my tiredness now, I'm actually doing quite well. More about this
stress test is online here:

Best Buy Installing Invalid Copies of Trend Micro Internet Security 2008, 20080909tu2240

The serial number provided is invalid so the product can't be
activated. It will be necessary to return the product for one that is
valid. Trend Micro just found out about this yesterday. Their servers
are not allowing these copies to be activated and it impacts an entire
batch of copies sold by Best Buy.

Rainy Monday, 20080908mo0931

It's a rainy Monday in Iowa City. This past weekend presented me with
about 16 hours of totally unplanned and unanticipated projects. So,
everything I hoped to get accomplished this past weekend gets brought
forward into my week. I was up last night until after midnight
finishing up from one person's computer support need that took about 8
hours to take care of - more remains to be done this week.
