TheNetworkAdministrator's
New Year's Resolution
Douglas Chick

This year I have decided to only write
positive material. No longer will I subject my readers to the insane rants
of too much caffeine, or misdirected anger from my personal life. This year
I will write things that are helpful to the computer professional and have
merit…that is providing my hit count is not affected.
Here are TheNetworkAdministrator's Top 10 New
Year's Resolution.
- I
will not make any further references about computer end-users being a
bunch of stupid mindless idiots. I will only refer to them as having
special needs.
- I
will not write stories or give my opinion about jobs being sent off
shore. Too many people followed their party line and believe that
overseas outsourcing was a good thing.
- I
will no longer write negative blocks of text about Windows security;
Microsoft is doing the best they can and anything I say just makes them
feel bad about it.
- I
will no longer criticize spam. Spam employs computer people on both
sides of the fence and off sets the jobs being sent overseas.
- I
will never again criticize viruses and virus makers. They provide a
service that also keeps computer people employed.
- I
will not be critical of government leaders. I will only refer to those
that elected them as having special needs.
- I
will be more understanding towards the record industry when it comes to
pirating music, and never again suggest that record industry executives
recreate with sheep, goats, Satan, or attorneys.
- I
will not write bias articles favoring Linux over Windows. When writing
about either operating system; I will not mention the other.
- I
will no longer rant. From now on I will try to express myself without
using expletives. Bad language only makes me look like a prick.
- When
I receive e-mails criticizing my grammar, I will take them as
constructive comments that help me, and not use my computer
powers for evil.
