Lisa,
my fine-feathered friend, i would have no idea what to write about. Clearly
not
oracle. And since i'd probably self-publish, I'd likely have to go mano a mano
with
Alex Hillman on the printing presses. It wouldn't be pretty, and besides, I still
owe
him a lunch.

So...that leaves not much in the hopper. I am open to suggestions that do not
involve me wearing speedos, passing by mirrors, or being available while the
sun is
up.

<sigh>

Ah
well, back to tweaking the nanokernel assembler extensions for the russian mafia.

Everything. The whole Coast Guard. Everything just turned blue and froze.
Then, someone using oracle with "read consistency" was able to order a replacement ship simultaneously with the guy who was removing the last ship from inventory, but fortunately for the USCG, Oracle doesn't let "writers block readers", so the order went through but was never fulfilled.

Now, they're running DB2 on VMS on realtime nanokernel OS kiosks.
