Do you ever have one of those days?

Actually in this case it'd be one of those weekends.  I was working this weekend (at home fortunately) on getting some changes in for an upcoming product release and I just hit roadblock after roadblock.

I have a name for my pain - it is GAUNTLET!

Not many of you will know what I am talking about so the best analogy I can come up with is this:

Imagine you are a UPS driver and it is the last delivery day before Christmas and they took away your big brown truck and handed you the keys to a Pinto with 3 flat tires.  And your wife wants you home in time for dinner.

I suppose things could be worse, I could be an Eagles fan :)

No real content today.  Just venting.

I would choose writing code in Notepad over the pain we went through with Gauntlet that Tim is referring to...
