Caroline says: Oh, I never saw the forecast where it was supposed to be nice on Sat, which is why I was surprised you'd try the rollerblading thing again.
Caroline says: I figured you were brave.
Ryan says: We rollerbladed once last year, right into a total downpour. Six miles of complete and total drenchitude.
Caroline says: Please use the word "drenchitude" in an article.
Caroline says: That is most excellent.
Ryan says: "The mainframe can continue running, despite conditions that would destroy most systems, including extreme heat and overwhelming drenchitude."
Caroline says: Awesome.
Caroline says: That right there is a $5 word. No more of that silly $1 per word stuff.
Ryan says: I'm a wordsmith of the highest order.

Posted by: Simon at June 10, 2005 08:22 AMI know I've been programmed to be a hopeless IBM cheerleader, Simon, but I'm still curious: can you name a business server that outperforms the IBM mainframe? I know that it's riduculed for it's rather large size and price tag, but when it comes to running the business processes of some of the world's largest companies, it has one of the most loyal followings in the market. Again, that's the IBM cheerleader in me. But I'd like to hear your take.
