  Happy holidays Walt...and while your drinking away there, I have to deal   with a major crisis here. Big bottle o' tequila and a big bottle of triple
  sec, but we ran out of mix...

  Speaking of beer...

  It's spool-down time here; management just brought in beer and pizza, so I'm
  currently sipping on a cold one whilst staring at my monitor pretending to   get work done. I'm not sure I want to touch any of my production db's in my
  current state of mind.

  I'll be taking next week off, spending the time flying and skiing and not   thinking a whole lot about databases.

  SO, y'all have a pleasant holiday, keep it civil while I'm gone, and I'll   see everyone next year (in a Gregorian sense, of course).
