@kdfrawg Three Canadian acts in that list that most have probably never heard of: Jeremy Fisher is kind of a high-energy young Paul Simon, Two Hours Traffic are an indie band, and The Rankin Family are (or were) a Celtic-influenced folk-pop group from somewhere in the Maritimes.
This afternoon's commute (and a badly needed attitude adjustment) was brought to you by Crosby, Stills & Nash, Santana, The Alan Parsons Project, Jeremy Fisher, The Rankin Family, Supertramp, Two Hours Traffic, Hall & Oates, and Al Stewart.
This would be a really good day to stop at the beach on the way home with a 6-pack and spend a couple of hours staring out across the Santa Barbara Channel just to clear my head. If only I didn't have to drive afterward… <sigh>
@phoneboy I know, right? You need something to make the world spin in the other direction, just to even things out. ;-)
What kind of day has it been? It's 2:20 PM and I just noticed I still have about a quarter of my morning coffee left, because I've been too busy to drink it.
So…anybody got any gin?
Current status: resorting to using Slack to communicate with programmers in India because our email migration has borked something.
@hazardwarning Like Dameon, I'm on the family plan, and I try not to pay too much attention to what my wife orders. All I know is we get a lot of boxes on our doorstep.

@kdfrawg Fortunately, I'm not the one who makes these decisions. However, I'm not convinced that it's less secure to contract with Microsoft for offsite cloud storage than it is to have an underpaid contractor maintaining on-site servers.

@phoneboy We're owned by a private investment firm now. It's all about reducing costs and the bottom line.
@phoneboy It's part of our corporate IT migration. We're moving to a lot of managed solutions, since we've decided we'd rather be in the market research business than the server maintenance business. ;-)
