You should've gone at the Studio 54 scene (five-plus minutes of my life
I wont get back). I did the second time around.  Oh, and plugged my
ears.

Never would, dear, am referring to the ambiance of the locale. Metal
trash cans everywhere, perfect for the green one. *g*

No sudo, I noticed. *tsk, tsk* Then again, all root has no downside in
such a case. root at 10.2.2.2 right? rfc1918 net.

You weren't paying close attention at the Oracle scene. My question
above is tangential, as decompilation is a ``Tron'' reference.  There,
Barnard Hughes (Dumont), I believe, is threatened with being
``decompiled'' as punishment. To me such a thing has always `sounded' as
the realm of the late 70s-early 80s mainframe, mini-computer era, of
which I know little, but for a Ken Olsen biography.

*jijiji* We're going back next week. All I keep hearing is, ``Oh! Keanu
is so hot! Hot! Goood. Take me back.''
