... I’m vibin’ the long range forecast here in Toronto for the next 10 days. Sunny, warm and dry. I need all the runway I can get for my last two plants so keep it comin’ I say ;) ...
See? A couple of single digit overnight lows in mid September ain't gonna derail the outdoor girls. Probably helped to beef them up.

And after a 4 year hiatus, we're gonna revive Couples Niagara/RODIO golf tournament next Tues to Thurs. We'll have better weather in early October than we had in late June.

This person, referred to as C.W. here, is THE FUCKING TEAM COORDINATOR and it's a chat we had earlier this morning.

C.W.: "Hey there ... can you send me the key(s) that we use to decrypt the CSV files? We want to send them to some testers to decrypt on their end."
Me: "The keys were created for use on our specific server. They won't decrypt on another server or workstation"
C.W.: "I'll mention that fact to them."
Me: "Mention that this won't work."
C.W.: "OK. So can you send them to me?"
Me: "This is not going to work. They won't be able to decrypt properly."
C.W.: "We need to give them those keys otherwise they can't decrypt."
Me: "But ... it won't ... ( Realization smacked me at this point. Now I know I was speaking to a fucking rock ... )
Me: "Yeah, sure, whatever. Here! ( Hits the SEND key with the two PGP keys attached )
Me: "When they get the inevitable key mismatch errors, I can't help them. Those two keys only decrypt shit on our server."
C.W.: "OK."
( ~ 2 hours pass ... )
C.W.: "Hey there ... can you get a hold of "Other Person" and help out? They are getting key errors trying to decrypt."


SIGH!!

Retirement is in about 3 years - and after today, hanging 'em up looks SO inviting.
