I am a little Teapot - The DarkSide of the Microsoft Admin... strikes ...

 As sweet and nice that Nancy Apthrop, the Exec-Admin to Norm Judah (our CTO in the Worldwide Enterprise Services group at Microsoft reporting to Rick Devenuti) is - the Darkside of the force had gripped her strong late last Friday - during our office move. Unfortunately I was the victim to her mischief this time - and Eric Sabetti played Darth Maul and helping her.

A 10 mins break away from my computer in the common lounge - suddenly saw me sending mass mails to my boss and others in different groups with the following information:

…short and stout. Here is my handle….here is my spout…..

Sure do – I’m pretty too!

Obviously having posted this and had the audacity to send the link back to Nancy, Joan and The Secret-All-powerful Ring of the Admins in our group.... my days are marked :)

Note to Self: LOCK the machine before you leave it around!!! <cntrl-Alt-Del> <alt-K>

    uh... that's supposed to read "cool kids". I suppose the uber-cool kids are using spell-check.

    Cheers...

    Sure it does, if you're using Windows XP Home Edition. I suspect, however, that you have Pro on your MSFT latptop. No? (that might explain the productivity "problem" <g>)

    Cheers...

    That's right - sweet and nice...but taking no prisoners. Actually, I learned that little trick from you very own 'joany'. She pulled this on a fellow Admin a while ago and we had so much fun at that Admin's expense....it stuck with me. Cheers! ~Nanc
