anyone that uses raid 0 for large database infrastructure should be more concerned about knowledge transfer for their staff, rather than disk speed. 🙂

Spending spree.

In the last two days I bought

KC Daylighters x 2  
Light bar for my Xterra  
Cobra CB  
Creative Zen

and the best ever, due to CraigsList  
Fred Bear Whitetail Legend bow, barely used.  
70lb draw  
($40)

In other news, I slept on the couch last night. Apparently people without uteruses aren’t allowed to spend exorbitant amounts of money.
