Default Jovi Moment -- On a secure server?

Thanks, Bon Jovi, for saving me from a boring morning!

It was about as boring as it gets -- a roomful of computer cubicles filled with people uploading their resumes into a new job hunting system. It's no one's fault that I have a few decades' worth of job experience to input, but with about about a dozen things you have to check off for each line you input, it's was going to take forever...

The good news is, since there were some videos to be watched, headphones were allowed. The bad news is, they blocked all the fun sites so there was no Jovitalk, which really sucked because I could have listened to the vids of Richie's shows in Australia or the Instgrams of the BJ promo show in Red Bank while I worked.

But what's this? While they've blocked http://youTube.com, they HAVEN'T blocked https://www.youtube.com??? I pop on my headphones, tune in to a two-hour 1989 Bon Jovi concert, and it stopped getting boring real quick, LOL!



P.S. They made the exact same mistake with blocking Instagram, too.

UPDATE: I've moved on to a Web developer course. I based my first Web page assignment on the Bon Jovi discography and submitted it to the site's feedback forum. The forum immediately returned a listing of posts submitted by others who had done their Web page assignments on Bon Jovi! I thought I'd be unique -- what WAS I thinking?

UPDATE 2: While taking a practice aptitude test, I came across this question:

A jar of sauce holds 32 ounces. How many ounces of sauce can a box hold?

It's of those trick information questions: the answer isn't a number but the fact that not enough information was provided to solve the problem. Needless to say, I burst out laughing -- did Jon and his father ever resolve that sauce versus gravy issue?

See, an engineer like myself would just make an assumption (and make a note that it is an assumption). I would assume that there are 12 jars in a case and calculate from there.
