Tomorrow is Friday!

Couldn't get going this morning; didn't make it into the office until 9:50.

Work went ok. Turns up Suse 9's service pack 3 breaks their AutoYast build process. So now I can't build servers that will meet the Oracle prereqs.

After work, some of us went out to a bar on 15th street to celebrate the three year anniversary of when GridApp got it's first office space. Also to celebrate Groundhog day. Also just because.

Got home a little while ago after splitting a cab with Dan/Matt/Jeff and grabbing Tacoria with Matt. Watched CSI.

In order to get Yahoo to fix my account, they asked for all sorts of really personal information, and demanded I send it in unencrypted email. Does it make any sense that I should be handing over the following to some random technician at Yahoo?

* Yahoo! ID
* Domain name
* Zip Code
* Alternate email address
* Date of Birth
* Last 8 digits of the credit card used to bill your account
* Credit card type

Now alot of this stuff is already publicly available, but to put it all in one nice place is just asking for identity theft.
