Oh stewardess, I speak jive.

Dem servers was all jacked up tight, but now we diggin positive results restartin the affected infrastructure and recoverin server availability isolated-style. We monitorin dem portions performance to verify stability, dig? Suspect it gonna support improved availability once we expand the actions more broadly.

Check EX1550543 and MO1550821 in the Microsoft 365 admin center, or that link if the center ain't hangin.

Jus hang loose, blood. Shiiiiit.

@Fenlandlad1 @Turn1divebomb Same. I missed the race broadcast and when I heard the news I decided that I would never watch the race or the accident.

@5StringsInTX I was standing in the checkout at HEB, maybe 15 years ago, Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog" started up on the store overhead. That was the moment I realized that I was old.

@JohnLeguizamo When you stated that Dems make SHIT happen, you were accurate. Everything that they touch turns to shit. The only thing on your agenda is the dismantling of the Republic to turn it into a socialist shithole.

@_wintergirl93 🙏🙏🙏 Being a Vikings fan should be enough of a burden for anyone.

@5StringsInTX I've heard from former co-workers that today has been super fun. Sorry I missed it. 🤣

@alexthechick @cigarsandlegs It's not. Enact your own labor. I'd suggest that the Census Bureau might be a good place to start.

@5StringsInTX How else could you make, "Rochelle, Rochelle II - An Older Womans Arthritic Journey From Miami to Moosejaw", without the trains?

@5StringsInTX @zombyboy @truckerE @el_yardo @nogooddeed2 @JackalopeGulch @RagingRhinoPod @Pedroentejas Understandably so.

@zombyboy @5StringsInTX @truckerE @el_yardo @nogooddeed2 @JackalopeGulch @RagingRhinoPod @Pedroentejas True, but Grumpy's is a mile down the road. You can do your CC range requirement and then get your CFS on.

@5StringsInTX @zombyboy @truckerE @el_yardo @nogooddeed2 @JackalopeGulch @RagingRhinoPod @Pedroentejas It's the good Marbach. Went to school and worked with several Marbachs. And a whole bunch of Friesenhahns.

@5StringsInTX @zombyboy @truckerE @el_yardo @nogooddeed2 @JackalopeGulch @RagingRhinoPod @Pedroentejas The shooting range on Marbach is not a bad spot, either.

@CodeWriter23 @5StringsInTX @truckerE @el_yardo @nogooddeed2 @JackalopeGulch @RagingRhinoPod @Pedroentejas That's what she said

@5StringsInTX @zombyboy @truckerE @el_yardo @nogooddeed2 @JackalopeGulch @RagingRhinoPod @Pedroentejas Hold on there...the Bowling Alley, Bracken Store and Ice House, and Hangin' Tree are good reasons to visit.

For my brothers and sisters on this Veteran's Day. You know the drill. Carry on.

Tommy

I went into a public-'ouse to get a pint o' beer,
The publican 'e up an' sez, "We serve no red-coats here."
The girls be'ind the bar they laughed an' giggled fit to die,
I outs into the street again an' to myself sez I:
O it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, go away";
But it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play,
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play,
O it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play.

I went into a theatre as sober as could be,
They gave a drunk civilian room, but 'adn't none for me;
They sent me to the gallery or round the music-'alls,
But when it comes to fightin', Lord! they'll shove me in the stalls!
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, wait outside";
But it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide,
The troopship's on the tide, my boys, the troopship's on the tide,
O it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide.

Yes, makin' mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an' they're starvation cheap;
An' hustlin' drunken soldiers when they're goin' large a bit
Is five times better business than paradin' in full kit.
Then it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, 'ow's yer soul?"
But it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll,
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll,
O it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll.

We aren't no thin red 'eroes, nor we aren't no blackguards too,
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
An' if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints,
Why, single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints;
While it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, fall be'ind",
But it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind,
There's trouble in the wind, my boys, there's trouble in the wind,
O it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind.

You talk o' better food for us, an' schools, an' fires, an' all:
We'll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational.
Don't mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face
The Widow's Uniform is not the soldier-man's disgrace.
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot;
An' it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' anything you please;
An' Tommy ain't a bloomin' fool -- you bet that Tommy sees!
