So Oracle is broken again.  OKay.   Not surprised.

Once again I find it only slightly amazing that when I try to get some
patches, for the first time in three months, an Oracle service is
broken.

Sort of like walking into a casino and then to the nearest roulette
wheel and dropping 100 dollars on number 14, and winning.  In fact the
probability of that event is much higher than Oracle being broken on the
very day I look for patches for the first time since late September.

Not sure how to wrap my brain around that.

PCA is awesome and I must toss money in the bucket.  In fact, I am
really trying and to do just that for you Martin.  This morning I try to
toss $120 CDN at you and my stupid paypal account says "we can't do that
right now" for totally obscure reasons.  Yet another service not working
this morning.  I will go stare at my coffee cup for a while perhaps and
I will let you know if the new PCA version works for me.
