When Santas Collide

Of course Santa Clause is a saint. I mean, who wouldn’t be a saint if they could visit every child in the world in a single 36 hour span. I’ve heard many things about the old guy, but the one I common idea that I happen to agree with is that the old boy has help. His buddies, whom I will name “Lesser” Clauses, visit some of the children for him, and even stand out in the rain in front of little red tripods ringing bells and accepting your money.

But what happens when two Lesser Clauses bump into each other? Or, heaven forbid, a Lesser rubs noses with the actual factual Big Man himself… Discuss.

A New Home

My web server server’s static IP has been revoked and it is now living a life of unbridled freedom, roaming the wild, untamed ranges of dynamic address space in a private Georgia Tech subnet. We’ll miss you, friend of the poor, lover of the weak, and incredibly cheap dual processor CPU.

Of course, I still get to work on it every day in my brand new cubicle… *groan* …but what would management do if they couldn’t move us peons around whenever they felt like it.
