Sorry for the lack of posting thus far.
Today’s my birthday (I’m 40, officially old enough than I can no longer eschew the label “middle aged”) and I had related festivities that precluded doing my “blog job” with my usual early morning zeal.
Less pleasantly, I arrived at my actual job this morning to find that the geniuses in tech support had locked down the hard drive as part of a plan to prevent non-existent system problems and have spent the last three hours undoing the damage they caused. I’m up and running now but three hours behind in my work so will likely not get anything written for OTB until later.

Speaking of James Joyner…
He unveils the fact that it’s his 40th birthday in the very next post after the one I linked earlier. Happy birthday, James! Isn’t it great that forty is no longer “old” by any stretch?

Haven’t you heard that 40 is the new 30? Besides it’s all upstairs.
My birth certificate says I’m 45 but my control tower says college was just few years ago.

Happy Birthday Sir.
Forty? I was still howlin at the moon, and tomcatting around at thirty nine. You’re middle aged if/when you start referring to yourself as such. Me I’ve only done it once (now 47 y.o.).
If it’s any consolation ….. my beige box died yesterdee. Reloaded the o.s …… (no backup/save).
Yesterday was tough …… I feel better today.
It may just be enough for me to give Linux a try?
