Vancouver, Toronto, New York and... Port Moody

So I got an e-mail from New York about the possible job in Toronto this morning, wanting to talk to me further. Up to this point I've been dealing with a guy in California, who has now passed me up to New York. The company doing the placement is Japanese, in business since 1967 and is big on open source (they own Turbolinux, one of the distros supported by IBM). So far all I know about the client is that they are a Japanese-owned electronics industry company.

Games to play on transit

1. "Identify the smell"

This morning's winner was old tires with engine grease, with just a hint of urine.

Crap crap crap crap

Something got seriously borked on my server last night. I'm about half an hour away from having it fixed, but off I have to go on the commute so it all stays down until I can get home. None of my websites are working at the moment, which is no big deal. Elaine's store is the bigger deal. That and our primary e-mails are dead for at least another 10 hours. Nothing will be lost because there are two more levels that can spool the mail until it is deliverable. It's just going to bug me all day that I'm so close yet so far from having it working.
