Very Busy
Too busy, in fact, to write anything interesting here. Unless you would like to know how to install Oracle 9i release 2 onto the same machine as Oracle 8i? No, didn’t think so. Let me point you in the direction of some humour instead. There are a new set of get your war on strips …
Quite Right Too
