Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Now I really want to see it! Good job on insulting any and all... sounds like Jeff and his pork chop launcher might be rubbing off on you!

    That or Buck Woody. Not sure which is better

    Folks, if you ever get the chance to let Brandie do a review of one of your pieces, do so. I'm afraid to see what she'd do to a piece she didn't like, but it's incredibly thorough.

    Thanks again, Brandie.

    You're quite welcome. Glad I could help.

    So Gail - how did your presentation go? I'm sorry that I couldn't see it.

    Awesome. Great fun. Timing went perfectly too (for once)

    Trying to figure if I managed to not insult anyone. Developers twice, DBAs once, Robert Davis once (why is an MCM asking questions in a presentation?), Microsoft once, the query optimisation team once. Did I leave anyone out?

    It was a very good presentation. I missed a chunk in the middle because of a phone call, but everything I saw was great.

    I think Jeff would be the better of the two. Buck has clothing problems.

    Does anyone know if we'll be able to download them later on?

    Streaming, not download. Something an issue with but PASS doesn't seem to be willing to change

    Darn. Yours was one I'd really like to see! (The title alone intrigues me - sure wish I could come up with something witty like that for mine!)

    I can't watch the recorded videos via streaming because of crap internet connection, I doubt you have the same problem though.

    Get someone to send it to you via homing pigeon ....

    Are you following a specific hash tag, or just those folks to get all of these "high quality" messages?

    Isn't that like saying you're a 'nice' barbarian because you only rape and pillage? 😛
