THE BEST MAN TURNED OUT TO BE A WOMAN

They claimed Palin was chosen only because she's a woman. In fact, Palin was chosen because she's pro-life, pro-gun, pro-drilling and pro-tax cuts.

When liberals start acting like they're opposed to pre-marital sex and mothers having careers, you know McCain's vice presidential choice has knocked them back on their heels.

10 Great Microsoft Technologies That Failed

.NET (2002)
Runtime compiled, and featuring Net-connected apps back when people were laughing at the idea? You go, Microsoft! Go people did…to Java. Microsoft keeps improving the .NET framework, and people do build apps based on it, but it has nowhere near the scope that MS had envisioned back in 2002.

Magic Windows Trick: Query and Reset Terminal Sessions

Have you ever tried to remote into a windows machine and couldn't because the machine had exceeded its available sessions? Can't RDP into a machine because there are already 2 active sessions? Want to play party tricks on your friends and wow them with your "techie-ness?!"

Say hello to my little friends qwinsta and rwinsta (AKA query session and reset session, respectively)

clipper's remarks: And so many fellow clippers gave me great words of encouragement - thanks to all of you!

It took a LOT of courage and pride-swallowing to come back to Telerx but it was worth it.

New New Old Job Today!

Well that lasted a day and a half :)

ScreenMatter is a great group of people with a future I believe in - it just won't include me :( The physical environment just wouldn't work for me. I sort of knew it wouldn't, but I let the hype of some friends and people I trust put stars in my eyes and I went anyway.

Telerx was gracious enough to have me back and I was happier there today than I've been in ages :)

Apologies to ScreenMatter. I feel like a jerk.

I'm here early of course, sitting downstairs at Milkboys. I'll probably spend all my money here :)

It's an exciting new opportunity - and I don't have to care about Oracle anymore! Yipee!!

Debug an EXE without "Attach To Process"

clipper's remarks: nice!

Did you know… You can debug an executable that isn’t a part of a Visual Studio project without using Tools – Attach to Process? - #296

Go to File – Open Project and give it the name of the executable. Yes, even thought it isn’t a “project” per se, like a .proj or .sln, the dialog will accept an executable.

Now you’ll see the executable opened in Solution Explorer as a project.

Just hit F5 as usual to start the executable.

Hidden Surprises in .NET 3.5 Service Pack 1

Hidden Surprises in .NET 3.5 Service Pack 1

Could not load type 'System.Web.UI.ScriptReferenceBase' from assembly 
'System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, 
PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'.

You are stymied. You've never heard of the class; you certainly don't use it in your code. You use ScriptReference, of course; who doesn't? But what's ScriptReferenceBase? Going to the documentation for ScriptReferenceBase, you learn that it is the parent class of ScriptReference and CompositeScriptReference. What? No it isn't! The documentation for ScriptReference clearly indicates that it's parent is System.Object! What's going on here?

Then you notice the Version Information for ScriptReferenceBase: "Supported in: 3.5 SP1". It's a new class for Service Pack 1. It doesn't exist in .NET 3.5 and the documentation for ScriptReference is clearly stale.

Seeking Ugly Women?

Outback mayor seeks "ugly duckling" women

Mt Isa Mayor John Molony was refusing to apologize on Monday for angering local women with a suggestion that "with five blokes to every girl, may I suggest that beauty-disadvantaged women should proceed to Mount Isa,"

"Quite often you will see walking down the street a lass who is not so attractive with a wide smile on her face. Whether it is recollection of something previous or anticipation for the next evening, there is a degree of happiness,"

Really, beauty is only skin deep. Isn't there a fairy tale about an ugly duckling that evolves into a beautiful swan,"

The mayor said he was "telling it like it is"

"I'm a bloke who respects women. I believe we should look after women. I'm told men outnumber women here by five to one. If that's the case, then perhaps it's an opportunity for some lonely women," Molony said.

Pride = Balloons With Holes :)

Acting out of pride is like trying to blow up a balloon with a hole in it. It is lonely business requiring consistent effort with only temporary results that never satisfy or please anyone.
