Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • Steve thanks for scheduling another QOD that I had submitted.

    And hey I want to brag a bit, well maybe not a bit, but a great deal, since that is my 64th accepted/scheduled QOD

    If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

    Nice, 26 QODs.

    Went back and checked at 10:20 AM another, the 65th has been scheduled for May 30th.

    But Ron, it's not even a bytes-worth, only 3/4 of a byte. πŸ˜›

    Of course, that's more than 7 times as many as I've managed. Well done. 😎

    SQL Saturday out here in Phoenix was a lot of fun, and of particular interest I met a LOT of good people, including finally getting a chance to meet our illustrious Steve Jones.

    Oh, Jeff? If you get a random thump up the back of the head (for no particular reason, I thought it was a funny idea at the time) from someone in your usergroup, that's my doing. πŸ˜‰ You can pay me back sometime. πŸ™‚

    Woot woot!

    You comin' to Detroit? I'll be sure to bring my triple banded wrist rocket for ya. πŸ˜‰

    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.

    What kind of sound does a random pork chop to the back of the head make?

    It depends....Frozen or Thawed?

    Although that launcher might generate enough velocity to cook a frozen one.
