I wonder how many trees he killed with all that paper on his desk? He better have solar panels to power those 3 monitors!
Notice how he doesn't have an inbox anywhere. Is there a 4th monitor in Al Gore's office to check email??? Surely the guy who invented the internet uses email.
Since it is the weekend Here are 2 song for you, they both have something to do with programming. First song is Time For Violence A Song about Databases Lyrics By Roy Osherove

1) My Birthday 2) Final season of Sopranos starts 3) New season of Entourage starts 4) Easter
So finally the Sopranos will end ;-( I must admit that the last season wasn’t that great, the episode in which Tony had that crazy dream with that suitcase was just horrible. Watch out for the ducks in the last episode (remember the ducks in the first episode? They will be back and we've come full circle with the show)
I did not start watching Entourage until last season, since then I have watched all the episodes (thank you Comcast on demand). Jeremy Piven (Ari Gold) and Kevin Dillon (Johnny "Drama" Chase) are my favorite characters.
Easter, oh yes the day that I have to go to Church with my wife (I made a wedding day promise). My older son will have a lot of fun with all the eggs/chocolates and gifts that the Easter Bunny will bring
It is also my birthday on April 8th, I will be getting closer to midlife crisis. I will turn 37 that day, wait isn’t 37 the new 27?
Error Code: 4860 Cannot bulk load. The file "%ls" does not exist. Massenladen ist nicht möglich. Die Datei "%1!" ist nicht vorhanden. Chargement en bloc impossible. Le fichier "%1!" n'existe pas. ???????????????? "%1!" ???????? No se puede realizar la carga masiva......
This is the first time that I have seen a multi-language error. It appears that SQL Server 2005 is a multi-language 'speaker'. So we have 4 languages in this error
English Cannot bulk load. The file "%ls" does not exist.
German Massenladen ist nicht möglich. Die Datei "%1!" ist nicht vorhanden.
French Chargement en bloc impossible. Le fichier "%1!" n'existe pas.
Spanish ???????????????? "%1!" ???????? No se puede realizar la carga masiva (don't know what the deal is with those question marks, probabaly a missing font)
So I speak 2 of these languages and 2.5 other languages and also a dialect. But I can curse in many more ;-)
Got this pic in the mail today. I have been working with a dual-monitor setup since 2001 but this is unquestionably better. Here is how I would use it.
Monitor1: Outlook, Word and Excel Monitor2: Production SQL Servers Monitor3: Staging and Development SQL Servers Monitor4: Visual Studio, EditPlus, XML Spy, Sybase Power Designer, Visio, SQL Compare etc etc
You see, all work and no fun (makes Jack a dull boy) Very SQLicious don’t you think? How would you use it?
All right look, there's only one return, okay, and it ain't "of the King," it's "of the Jedi."
I own the extended version of the LOTR trilogy and also all the Star Wars movies. To me this is a useless debate since the LOTR trilogy is much better than the original Star Wars trilogy (Episodes 4-6). The YouTube clip is rated R so don’t say I didn’t warn you. And make sure you read the comments
Here are two of them
...Depth and coherence of a cartoon? At least Mr. Lucas has signed off on allowing people to expand the Star Wars universe. Millions of inhabited planets. Thousands of sentient beings. LIGHTSABERS. How's a ring gonna stop a blade of coherent light through the chest?
Aww...made the LOTR fans a little angry did we? So sorry we made your precious move feel inferior, but they were honestly drawn out way longer then they should have been and, wow, Star Wars was in NO WAY based off LOTR, that's just a silly assumption...stop complaining about it, it's not it matters to anyone, honestly.
So we all know that Clippy hasn't made it to Office 2007 but guess what? Clippy is not dead, it's alive! DR. FrankGNUstein has dug up Clippy from the cemetery near Redmond, Clippy was resting (in peace) near MS Bob and now only an empty grave can be found. Below is a picture of Clippy on Linux, kind of creepy and if you look closely you can still see the scars. Now you know why Seattle had a blackout recently because DR. FrankGNUstein used a tremendous amount of power to resurrect Clippy

Wal-Mart announced that, on January 1, 2007, it will begin offering customers a new discount item - Wal-Mart's own brand of wine.
The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2-$5 range.
Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at University of Arkansas, Bentonville. She said: "But the right name is important."
Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand. The top surveyed names in order of popularity were:
10. Chateau Traileur Parc
9. White Trashfindel
8. Big Red Gulp
7. World Championship Riesling
6. NASCARbernet
5. Chef Boyardeaux
4. Peanut Noir
3. I Can't Believe It's Not Vinegar!
2. Grape Expectations
1. Nasti Spumante
The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel).
1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you?
2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV.
1st woman: So, what happened?
2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all over the house looking. I ran up into the attic and searched, and down into the basement. Then I went through every closet and checked under all the beds. I kept this up until I had looked everywhere,and finally I became so exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died.
1st woman: Too bad you didn't look in the freezer---we'd both still be alive.
So what is the point of this all? Well it gives you a reason to run those barely used functions like SOUNDEX and DIFFERENCE ;>
I wonder how many trees he killed with all that paper on his desk? He better have solar panels to power those 3 monitors!
