Super Dad

My daughter, Olivia, has of late been growing like some plant that has been sprayed with Miracle Grow. Which also means nearly all of her clothes are too small and most of the jeans have holes in one or both of the knees. In addition to that she has been really into wearing dresses lately so she’s been looking kinda hussy and creates a problem when Raylene or I tell her she can’t wear her favorite clothes because they are too small.

So made a run to Dessert Industries (DI) for my lunch break and found 2 skirts, 2 capri’s, 2 pants, and 3 shirts that were about her size and what I thought Raylene and Livy would consider ‘cute’. After returning home and presenting my spoils Livy was glowing and Raylene was quite impressed that I manage to buy clothes that fit, were ‘cute’, and inexpensive. What can I say, except ’no extra charge for awesomeness’!

We have a simple API where I work that isn’t anything impressive, it is just a couple of scripts that accept POST and GET requests. However the previous developer who worked on it hadn’t considered the total ramifications and logged all requests using an email with print statements. Additionally, for each request there could be up to 3 emails generated, one for the initial request, one for errors, and one that included the payment gateway request and response. Not mention it definitely breaks PCI Compliance by emailing people’s credit card information, but we were also experiencing load issues on the web server for all the emails that were being generated through PHP Send Mail and the end result is about 10,000 to 100,000 emails waiting in my email account.
