Today kind of sucked.
I was out of the office for most of the day yesterday, trying to do something nice by donating my old motorcycle to the Apache Foundation, and to be certain they KNEW they were coming to pickup a bike, I mentioned it at least twice on the form, and once on the phone, Saturday. Somehow, “Honda CBR600” got translated into “Honda Accord”.
Truck-driver-guy showed up w/ NOTHING to tie the bike down.
So today I get to work and all kinds of things (read: systems/servers) decided they wanted to take some time off, too. After some fancy footwork, the guys got the machines back in order (great jeorb!) and things were fine.
4 o’clock rolled around, and I wanted to get a big ole glass of water. Since the cleaning crew was vacuuming today, I scheduled my trip to the cooler at “bacoom” time. Glass full, I was ready to wrap up for the night and head on home (I’m an early person). Luckily for me, cleaning woman knocked the plug out of my G5 and now it won’t boot.
Oh, joy.

yikes man, thats awful :(
I had a PC tech support dude kill my Mac a while back (switching monitor cables). Wouldn’t start up, dead as can be. Good thing is, they offered to pay the repair.
….even more lucky, all I had to do was hit the reset PMU button, it worked.
