Missing perfmon counters

I was trying to use perfmon to look at some memory issues in an application and noticed I was missing the .Net CLR Memory counter (as well as some others I didn't know about). Well I finally found out how to make the counters show up.

First I ran: unlodctr .NETFramework

Then from the 2.0 framework directory: lodctr corperfmonsymbols.ini

This unloads and reloads the registry information for the .net performance counters.

Close Encounters of the I-Man Kind

We went out to eat Friday at a local restaurant in Chelsea, and I opened the door for the wife & kids, and another couple. Imagine how shocked I was when I noticed it was none other than the I-Man! In our own local town, no less.

Well, he didn't recognize me, or at least didn't say anything. Although, he could have been medicated, hard to tell sometimes. It did give me a chance to share some I-Man stories with my wife during diner. Good Times.

Has it really been that long?

I'm finally getting around to posting again, I didn't realize it had been that long since my last post (2/7).

Part of the reason is, we went on vacation and while there I started getting sick and felt bad for a week after we got back.

We had a good time anyway. We went to Gatlinburg with some friends of ours.  We hiked to some waterfalls in the smokies, rode some go-karts, went to Dixie Stampede and played games at night.

It's that time of year again, baseball has started. This is our 2nd full week of practice and so far so good. I'm assistant coach for both my sons' teams, so it's going to be a busy year. Remarkably, both are on the Angels, which makes it easy for me, I don't have to change jerseys when going from one field to the other. I'm pretty pleased with both teams this year, players as well as coaches.
