Title: Hello hello
Post by: mordok on August 03, 2007, 09:34:47 PM
Greetings and good evening one and all.

<introduction goes here>

....or at least it would except that I suck at free form introductions.  So, if no one objects, how about we consider this an 'ask me anything' kind of thread and see how it goes from there.

At any rate, I'm happy to be here and look forward to getting to know you all better.

Hi Mordok.  Welcome to INTENSITY².  Are you 18 or older?


I am indeed.  31 to be exact.  Well, 31.6 to be more exact.  But I could quickly get carried away going down that road.   ;D

Not Surprising.  I've long used this name or variants on it as one of my main id's around the web.  Unfortunately, I have also discovered that it is not nearly as unique as it seemed when it came to me in my youth.  Ah well, I never was known for my creativity.

Point taken.  You did catch the part where I said I'm new, right?  To elaborate a bit, despite my age and my career in computers, this is only the 3rd message board I've ever joined.  I'm still learning how all this works.

Or we can skip the excuses and move on to the beatings.  Either works for me.

Indeed. Plus, beatings are far too crude a tool
for the really cruel to use.

Thanks.  But at least I know to watch a little more carefully.

What I do is actually something of a depressing topic for me.  I work for a small company on contract to the USDA.  When I originally started there, 5+ years ago, I was the system administrator for a software development team.  There were maybe 25 or so developers and management with their associated workstations plus several servers.  Nothing too fancy but it was all my responsibility.  The USDA itself had their own tech support department but it had always been a joke and considered as such.  This was why my company hired me in the first place.  Several other groups had similar arrangements.

However, over the years, the government has slowly been consolidating their administrative and support roles into their group and forcing those of us who were doing it on a small scale to relinquish all authority we had.  So, bit by bit, my roles and responsibilities have been reduced.  For the most part, they haven't gotten any better at it either.  For instance, they still have yet to roll out XP Service Pack 2 (they claim it's still being tested).

These days I pretty much have just one role, a virtual form of 'box it and ship it'.  I still get the occasional technical question or problem from coworkers who remember what I used to do and hope I can help them without them having to call LAN Support and open a ticket (up to a full day wait time for responses).  Unfortunately, I usually have to tell them there's nothing I can do and that I could even get in trouble for trying.

In all honesty, I'd probably have been fired long ago except for two things.  1)  I earned the respect and trust of one or two key government managers in charge of our project.  One in particular has gone to bat to defend me at least twice.  2)  I have a reputation as a fixer -- every now and then, the seemingly unsolvable problem will crop up in a server or our development.  Even though I lack any authority to directly fix them, I can usually just intuitively track the problem down and at least tell others where to look.

Oh my, this was a bit long-winded.  Sorry about that.  Guess you found one of my hot-button issues.   :clap:

Hi. What's your purpose in life?

To be honest, I have no big answer to that question at this time.  I'm pretty much living my life day-to-day lately and doing my best to care for my family.  Beyond that.....meh.

In my experience, what makes for better sex is what the people involved have between their ears more so than the state of their bodies.

There are so many ways one might interpret those questions.  But, even so, I feel fairly confident that I can answer in the affirmative regardless of your meaning.

Yes I do.  I usually say 'hot, brown, and caffeinated' is good enough.  Given the choice, I will add a packet of pink sweetener at the minimum and a vanilla flavored cream if available.

No need to snap anything.  We have several such pics already.......  However, if you want to see any of them, I'd suggest asking her.  She tends not to be shy about sharing if she's in the right mood.  It's really not my place to be putting her on display.  She can handle that quite well all on her own.

As for me, well, I won't lie.  My physique isn't exactly what's considered ideal, but it's also far from being able to create cleavage.  Sorry to disappoint.
