Technically a holiday

Well, M is taking the day off in lieu of the 4th, but I've been up working since the dogs decided it was breakfast time around 8ish.  

We've had a bug report from one of our customers, which is highly entertaining as they're minor bugs and two of them are technically failures to read English rather than bugs. i.e. Twitter: New Tweet and Twitter: Tweet this! are not actually the same menu option.

They also managed to find a highly entertaining and creative bug that has never happened to us in literally hundreds of installs and tests, which is extremely capable of them.  So N, the CTO, is currently beavering through last night's logs to figure out what they managed to do wrong.

Still they were nice enough to say, "
We hope that our client have the opportunity to access and get satisfaction from your fascianate and conceptual application."

If that means what I think it means, I'll take it as a complement.

A 1 year battery? Seriously?

So my laptop battery has died.  It's been getting flaky for a while but now it's telling the PC it can't charge.  So, I'm checking the extended warranty, but, just in case, I'm ordering a new 12-cell battery from Amazon.  I've got REALLY tired of the sub-3 hours I get from the 6 cell one.
