I love sarcasm

From the SANS Internet Storm Center:

Microsoft Black Tuesday Coming Attractions!

As a disinterested observer in the world of cyclical patching of Windows boxes, I’m always fascinated with the quasi-ritualistic undertones given to updating since Microsoft’s shift to a (allegedly) monthly patch-and-release program. It’s as if promptly patching on MS Tuesday is an offering of sorts to the old gods, Lovecraftian horrors the likes of which we dare not speak of lest we invoke their terrible wrath.*

… sorry ’bout that …

* Tune in tomorrow for the chills, spills and thrills of no less than *FIVE* security bulletins!
* Recoil in horror as you realize one or more of these bulletins will be *IMPORTANT* in severity!
* Cry out as you may or may not be forced to reboot!

All this and MUCH MORE awaits you at the Microsoft Security Bulletin Advance Notification site! http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/advance.mspx
