[AccessD] Don, it's Friday

There's an email that goes around about a contest between Jesus and the
Devil, where they were both working on computers, and right before the
contest was over, the power went out.  When it came back on, Jesus started
printing off all of his work, and the Devil was swearing that he had nothing
to print.  The Devil asked God how Jesus had anything to print off, and God
replied 'Jesus Saves!'.
 
I bring this up, because a few days ago, I made a minor change to an ASP for
a project I've been working on with Mike Mattys.  I did something really
stupid though, I let FrontPage delete a few cells from a table, not
realizing that one of the 'cells' was a wrapper for a pretty complex ASP
statement.  On top of that, I haven't made a backup of the entire
project.....bad habit I have gotten into from stuff I do at work.
 
Anyhow, I managed to recover the code, by finding the temp files that Front
Page uses, and copying the code from a temp file that was a few days old.
(This was about 5 minutes after I called Mike in a panic....<grin>).
Anyhow, when I found the data, I was thinking of that Jesus Saves joke, and
I changed it in my mind to 'Jesus Saves, but Drew knows how to find the
background stuff, to save his own butt! <grin>'....well, at least something
to that effect!

ooooo...yes...beg!
OK -

This guy dies and goes to hell (he was an Access developer) The Devil (he's
a user) meets him and says "Everybody thinks I'm such a bad guy, but you
know everybody who comes here gets a choice where their going to spend
eternity" So, they walk down this long corridor with closed doors on both
sides. Mr. D (not me) opens the first door and the guy looks in and sees
people up to their necks in poop. He says, "Well, I've been in deep poop
before, and I don't care for it, unless of course, I can email the AccessD
List". Mr.D says "Most of those guys are down here, or will be, but no, we
have no reliable ISP". So they go further down the hall and Mr.D opens
another door and the guy sees people up to their waist in poop. He says " I
don't know, that's still pretty deep". So they go further down the hall and
the guy looks in another room and sees people standing in ankle deep
poop,and drinking coffee and eating donuts, and he says "hey, this reminds
me of my last account, e! xcept the poop was stinkier, I'll take this one".
So he goes in to spend eternity. After about 5 minutes of eating donuts and
drinking coffee, the Devil comes back and says "OK, coffee breaks over, back
on your heads!"

Enjoy the weekend and stay out of the tobacco field!
