Quickie On SharePoint

I could go on and on about SharePoint, for hours and hours. I will just share a little conspiracy theory I thought of today…

Suffering with this problem for months now (literally), we finally got some advice. Supposedly EVERYONE faces this problem with SharePoint about the User not being found when going to create an SSP. Anyway, got two pieces of advice, one being to install the SharePoint patches (they have like 12 of them in the past year!) Howard and I are currently doing that.

Anyway, my conspiracy theory is that Microsoft deliberately ignores problems and creates buggy programs and releases them so people will waste their money and call tech support therefore making Microsoft money. Their errors, ambiguous, therefore costing you money in tech support.

Ugh. I hate Microsoft!

2009 Resolutions Update I

Thought I’d update on my New Years resolutions for this year, and add some new ones.

  • Be more soft spoken, tone it down a bit and watch what I say (done, however I sometimes speak louder than I mean to)
  • Have more parties/go to more parties (still settling in, plan to do more, but right now just weekend fun)
  • Don’t feel the need to say how I feel all the time (besides with Bri)
  • Get PHP certified (not accomplished yet, studying, but I registered and will be taking the test in a month)
  • Get at least 1,000 quotes next year (on my way… have 165 currently this year, may or may not hit that mark)
  • See Aunt Ruth and Aunt Janet more (not really finding the time, however did see Aunt Janet)
  • Get over some things that bother me (as time passes, I get over things)
  • Keep off the 10 pounds I just lost (currently weigh 150), be healthier and eat healthier (lol, gained 5 pounds, but now I’m cutting back on snacks and exercising)
  • Treat Brian and Candi better (always a resolution) (doing well)
  • Do something good for the environment or humanity (ugh, what do I do?)
  • Buy a house
  • Buy a new Prius
  • Get Candi off the cone (poor puppy) (maybe a few more weeks… it’s still there)
  • Settle my Dad’s estate (not in my control) (should be settled by June)
  • See a doctor and dentist (haven’t had the leave)
