RE: {bb} bb-xsnmp help

["Ben Pitzer" <bpitzer@southeast.rr.com>]

You mean we get days off?  Hah!  I'm on call, and I put in over 20 hours of
on call time since Friday.  Day off my sweet hind end.  Besides which, I do
note that your response came on /your/ day off as well, so don't bullshit a
bullshitter.  *chuckle*

I hope all of our US Brothers and Sisters had a happy and enjoyable Memorial
Day weekend, and that their BB monitoring didn't wake them up at 7am
yesterday, as mine did.

Regards,
Ben Pitzer
