Not really Linkin Park. It'd be more accurate to label this as ft Mike Shinoda or Fort Minor. But none of the other members are there. But Mike Shinoda is fucking AMAZING! One of my favorite rappers, along with Eminem and Hollywood Undead.

Me: . . . .

Me: Here's what I found.

User: This looks like what I need. Thank you!

Me (internally): So I've just set a precedence that I can find anything using absolute minimal amount of information. /sigh

I feel you there...

My favorite was my first real IT job. We were upgrading machines from XP to 7 (this was in 2012) and it was a bond-trading desk. They used Act! 2000 and it wasn't a licensed product but we didn't have the installer. I managed to use Google and some regex to find the installer buried on some FTP server online and it worked! A month later, I was able to, barely, replicate finding it, and now have no idea how I found it in the first place besides persistence and luck. Lol

@thanksajdotcom I'm happy I was able to find something, for it greatly helps the user + exec on a call that's happening in an hour; however, I can't help but take a step back and say "damn, do you realize what you're requesting?"

I need a thing! No, I can't describe it or give you any details...I just need it! Oh, and I needed it two hours ago. Can you help me?!

Was laying in bed getting ready to pass out when my right ankle started to cause me excruciating pain. Currently in the ER waiting for the ultrasound techs to arrive. Bug bite and broken bones have been ruled out, so far. I'm wondering if it's DVT. It runs in my family so I'll keep everyone posted.
Message me on Facebook or @Minion-Queen , as she'll probably be the one most in the loop. Wish me well guys and gals!
