I should play the lottery
It was just a routine reboot, software update for the server...
Operations on the server take milliseconds to complete but just when I hit the reboot button and the database server was going down, someone was creating a new user. If it was new post it wouldn't care, the post would be automatically deleted, but because it was a user the entire user table was corrupted!
We get about 2-3 new users a day.
There are 86,400,000 milliseconds in a day.
Basically a 1 in 30 million chance. (Not exactly Powerball odds but good enough for the regular lotto in IL)
Re: I should play the lottery
not sure if i should play the lottery or not today?.......mixed results to the start of my pattaya trip
left home at 4am
at 4:15 i hit a deer and totalled my g8 (air bag blew and deer went thru windshield)
left home again at 5;30 after tow call, a change of clothes and car
got to airport shortly after 7am and got chosen for ssss:eek:
went thru xray body scanner and then manual search of suitcase and they opened up everything as they found a false trace of explosives:eek::eek:
just got into lounge now in time for a quick toasted egg sandwich and coffee and then onto the gate shortly for the first leg of the trip
good things are i have super elite status so checkin and secondary security checks were fast and i bypassed 100 people in the line ( busiest i have seen here in a long time) and the g8 is one of the oldest cars in my inventory and the insurance company will likely pay me more than i have in it:corky:
plus i have buisness seating from here to denver so i can get some crown royal shortly to relieve my stress:corky:

ssss Sucks big time!
That sucks to lose a g8 but surprised you drive to the airport, must suck for parking fees even on a short trip. Now if it was a GXP, then you lost a bundle, but I presume it was either a GT or regular.

yes just a basic gt (asking 19gs)
with a two hour drive to the airport there isn't much choice except for hotel/parknfly or just parknfly........either way it adds another 100 bucks to the trip
