Last week, the house on our family farm came down. A few generations of Taylors went through there. The house was about 130ish years old.

It's sad to see it gone, and I'm not going to ramble on about it. Here are some pictures.

Never thought I'd be saying this, but I had to work on a classic ASP app earlier this week.

The owner of a datacenter I do business with called, and he had a client in desperate need of help getting a SSO app working. He sent me the code, and right away I saw the problem. Lots of application locking, and non-sensical code. To make matters worse, it needed to encrypt a querystring, pass off to a .jsp page on another server, and do some talking back and forth.

But my favorite part was this code comment:

'Initial creation.  For whoever has to support this when
'                           I am gone, I apologize if this is crummy/hacked code. 
'                           This is my first foray into .NET, and the goal was
'                           "get it working".

Classic ASP is .NET now, hmm?

It should come as no surprise this was written by a java developer.
