I’ve decided after careful consideration NagiosGrapher is one of the worst software packages ever. There’s so much terse and conflicting instructions out there, that even after three hours of hacking and tinkering I cannot get it to work. Even from an RPM install! die die die!

I have returned from my whistlestop visit of the east coast. On the EWR->AUS flight there were three ultra hot, size-2 girls. Listening to them chatter about timezones and daylight savings, they revealed they were coming from Saint Maarten. One of them even smiled at me as I did a double-take as they were boarding. […]

So at AUS, CLE, and BOS today the announcements seemed extra excited about the ORANGE security color, advising travelers to be extra cautious about suspicious items and people. What does orange mean?
