Crazy hours the last two weeks
we have been installing a new backup solution in two locations the last two weeks, and I have not got out of work in less than 12hrs the whole time... but it's getting done and it's my first project... I am accepting all jokes to cheer me up!

Book Critique: "Horton Hears A Who" by Dr. Seuss
Well versed in poetic inuendo, Dr. Seuss portrays a compelling story of an elephant named, "Horton," and his bit of fluff.
Our story begins with the assumption that the reader knows Horton is on vacation.
"On the fifteenth of May, in the jungle of Nool,
In the heat of the day, in the cool of the pool,
He was splashing…enjoying the jungle’s great joys…"
Clearly, elephants do NOT live in jungles, but are likely to be found in savannahs throughout Africa and India as well as on various stints with zoos and circus folk.

While Horton was vacationing, he heard something, yet could not see it. This raises a concerned brow.
"When Horton the elephant heard a small noise.
So Horton stopped splashing. He looked towards the sound.
“That’s funny,” thought Horton. “There’s no one around.”
Auditory hallucinations are often caused by psychosis, fever and some poisonings .
Once again, we the reader are left to conclude precisely what was really going on here. Horton began in "the cool of the pool." I surmise, therefore that Horton had a fever. It was probably some sound-producing jungle disease that he caught on vacation while swimming in non-chlorinated pools.
I am beginning to wonder if "Dr. Seuss" was real doctor!
