Improvising
Jun. 4th, 2008 08:35 pmWe have no electricity so the electric sparker in the oven wouldn't work;
cuyahogarvr finished cooking the half-done meat loaf in the barbecue grill in the back yard.
My pager keeps going off with requests from the Oracle database administrators to run some script or another as root. Not a big deal but the UPS died just before the last run so I had no Internet connectivity. We got the job done though by plugging a power inverter into the cigarette lighter of the minivan in the driveway, then running an extension cord into the computer room to power the DSL modem & router. All done!
Going back to sitting in the dark now...
