Actually, bacteria gas. (CO2) Delightful, isn't it? And I like swiss cheese.
So I guess Baby Swiss uses mini-bacteria?
Anti-matter.

For cheese that packs a real *boom*

Just because you said that we all wanna know... so what's the URL?

Useless post just to make 2,285
Sorry - I thought I saw the bandwagon start up, and I could use a lift.

Useless post to make umm, whatever number it makes.

Useless post just to make 500.
I hate when people do this.
I'd do one, but it appears I'm off by more than one this time...

Congrats on blasting through 26K points, Gail.

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

Not much traffic on my blog I am afraid. Or else I would have written it already.. 🙂
Where is your blog?
Here in SSC. I just blogged about the Exceptional DBA. I hope it will also help. 🙂
Edited a spelling mistake.

Wow! Thanks for the mention and the kind words, Roy! I appreciate the help.

Steve Jones - SSC Editor (7/27/2011)
I don't control the announcement. I assume it will be a business day or two afterward.

From the website... kind of a buried link...

Important dates

1.Deadline for nominations: Thursday, June 30th 2011 at 17:00 hours (GMT).

2.Finalists announced to SQL Server Central community for voting: Monday, July 18th 2011.

3.Deadline for votes for winner: Friday, August 12th 2011 at 14:00 hours (GMT).

4.Winner announced: week commencing Monday, September 12th 2011.

5.Awards ceremony: at the PASS Community Summit, November 2011, Seattle, USA.

Obviously, that last one is incorrect.

I gues he could if he counted on his fingers and toes - that easily goes up to quarter a million.

Or a whole million if with the thumbs added in.

Why does morning have to come so early? Can't it wait until I wake up for real?

So, are there any pastries or donuts at the water cooler today? I am in desperate need of sugar.

I have hot cross buns. And I'm not sharing.
