Two fire alarms today! Both false alarms thankfully. Damn annoying though. It ususally takes at least 20 – 30 minutes to get back to my desk.
I can see clearly now…
Woo hoo! Nearly all the scaffolding as been removed from the building in which I work. It’s been there for about twelve months! The section still remaing wil be there for a few more weeks while the builders complete the new entrance and foyer.
It seems really wierd to stand outside the building for a smoke, having been under the scaffolding for twelve months one feels exposed! Very strange. But the building looks better again and presumably a lot safer now with the work completed.
To bed…
Oops! Late again. I’d better get off to bed. I’ve a meeting in the morning 🙁
Later days,
Mike
Linux From Scratch – Progress
Linux From Scratch is coming along nicely. Gcc took quite a while to build! But I’ve just built grep and gzip is next. No more problems so far.

Secret Diaries
Found this today: Secret Diaries of Cassandra Claire. Very funny LOTR spoof. Make sure you read them in order as instructed on the page. It also helps if you seen the film of course! Funny 🙂
I love my broadband!
I’ve just finished down loading as much useful Java stuff as I can for a colleague, Duncan, who’s on a cut-you-off-after-two-hours dial-up connection. He actually wanted the JDK 1.4 for linux and a couple of other bits, but it pains me to see so much blank CD space go to waste. So I’ve down loaded as much as I can find and managed to fill 400+MB. At least its more than half full 🙂
I’ve included lots of goodies like Forte and NetBeans, lots of Jakarta stuff, JUnit et al., JBoss, and a few other choice pieces.
Mike.
