Collin O'McMicannery




At the risk of violating ITAR guidelines, I'm going to share an e-mail exchange with someone from Actel's office in Ireland...

======================================================
Hi,
I've uploaded the files to our web repository but I think I was given the wrong version of the repo control file. Please have a look.

======================================================

Hi Scott – my mistake. I knew that I was going to make one as I was under the weather (head cold – not pre St. Patrick’s Day drinking) while preparing this update. I copied over the wrong tagged version of the files. I’ve copied the correct files over to the share now so if you can try again you should now see the correct version. Thanks for spotting this!

Cheers
XXXXXX

======================================================

No prob. Hope you feel better - perhaps a pre St. Patty’s whiskey will help to kill the germs and let you sleep better!

======================================================

Who is St. Patty? Patron saint of hamburgers? We call “our” saint St. Paddy. =)

I’ll forego the whiskey and stick to the Guinness but I’m not sure that it cures colds. =)

Cheers
XXXXXX

======================================================

Ahhhh…St. Paddy! I’m a disgrace to my Great Grandma McGee…

Thanks, I will remember that. Enjoy the stout.

======================================================

So get your potatoes, throw on some U2 Dae Kim*, pour some Bushmills Jameson Powers whiskey, get out your Frank McCourt James Joyce, and let that consciousness stream.
Happy Hamburger Saint Day!

*I don't like U2. Here's some bleak Irish rock instead.
I think the Amurcans call it "shoe gazer" rock...
