a dogs life

When it all boils down to the essence of truth one must live by a dog's rule of life:
if you can't eat it or fuck it, piss on it!

I cleaned up the house last night, lots of parents are coming over this weekend so the whole place needs to look like we live there. I invited 15 people, will need to get the other 8' table to serve dinner. I am glad we have lots of room in the house!! The bus got put in the garage last night, it's nice to have parking again, the other side of the garage will need to be cleaned up so I can put the mustang in too. I have parked it there a few times but not since all my stuff was moved in.

I built a neat script last night, it will convert epoc time into real time. I am going to do some cleaning to it this morning and post it a little bit later.

Date conversion script

I had to send some log files off to someone who doesn't know anything about Unix or the way dates work. all of the dates in the log file were in epoch time. to make it easy I wrote a CGI shell script to make it easy for her to convert dates back and forth between epoch time and a real understandable time.

you will notice that it's all pull down menu's, in working with end users for so long I thought this would be the easiest way to make it idiot proof. they can't put too many numbers into the year or the day 32 or misspell the month. you can however ask for February the 31st... it's not perfect but pretty good for an ho
ur of work.

here is the code:
