    Don't forget the important rule Lynn. NO windows allowed in the desert tents!!

  • ROTFLMAO. All I could see was the commercial on TV where people started throwing candy bars at the deer!

    I don't watch TV, so I have absolutely no clue what you're referencing here. But I'm glad I was able to provide some amusement and comedy out of the tragedy that is josephtran's latest attempt at SQL.

  • Oh my God... Not the White house guy.... Not again...

    The best part I like about him is his way of saying hi...

    "Hello Grass

    How are you doing?"

    That is class....

    I am keeping way out of his threads.....:hehe:

  • Give a man a fish and he'll eat for one day...

    Slap him around with a trout, and he may go away and leave you alone.

    Wait around long enough and Cardinal Moden may smite him with a pork chop.

    I'm hungry now. I think I'll go out to the woods and pretend to be a deer. Maybe somebody will throw a candy bar at me.

    😛

  • [font="Verdana"]This morning I had an idea. After I had had a bit of a sit down to recover from that novel feeling, and to reassure myself that I'd soon return to my normal state of empty headedness, I decided to ask a question here.

    That question is in regard to articles. I've read a lot of (excellent, not so excellent, occasionally funny) articles on this site, and they tend to be aimed at the technical stuff.

    Is there a good range of design or data architecture articles? If so, can someone point me to them? Failing that, would they be a good topic for me to write? I'm not feeling up to the technical challenge of competing with some of the gurus here (Paul White's doing a fantastic job of representing the country!) But I do have a fair amount of experience in the design/architecture area.

    Good idea, or bad?

    [/font]

  • Sounds like a good idea to me, Bruce.

    I think it's a great idea.

    First, I just have to know; did it hurt?

    I think it would be an awesome idea. You need to go for it!

  • Bruce,

    Go for it. We're always trying to get some done, and it's a struggle. Get a good series going, and it might even turn into a book!
