Woo-hoo! Just found out that I'm speaking at SQL Saturday #545 in Pittsburgh!Congratulations, Ray. I hope to see you there. I don't know if I'm speaking in the last session of the WBADBA track or not, so I don't know if I'll make your session.
Thanks! I also saw that Jeff Moden is on the speaker's list as well. Looking forward to meeting more Threadizens in person!

Gail, you just made my day with this answer. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/FindPost1811748.aspxI can't stop laughing. 😀
omg
congrats. One day I'll get there
To where? Snarky replies to weird questions?
Stupid quote bug.
Meant to reply to Ray and SQL Sat Pittsburgh.
On this one, nice catch. Reminds me of the printer won't print query. "Is the parallel cable plugged in?"
I thought I felt my ears burning!

Taking my girls (7 & 9) to New York this weekend, does anyone have a suggestion on what to do there for their age?

The Metropolitan Museum of Art has an entire Egyptian temple inside. That's one of my favorite places to take kids. Lots to see. My favorite in the same location is the arms & armor exhibit. Then there's all the real art. Lots to see and it's in AC (supposed to be somewhat around here this weekend). Across the park is the Natural History Museum. Who doesn't love dinosaurs?

If you like Egyptian (and other far eastern) stuff and you want a treat that few people see, then I also recommend the Brooklyn Museum. They have an incredibly large collection but a lot fewer people go there. Damned shame.

I have once again learned the value of being part of a SQL forum. Specifically this site.New project. Take a feed I already created and make sure that payments are properly accounted for when checks are voided. Sounds easy. Why not take the time to pass it by the forum to see if there would be an easier / better performing way to do the queries or if what I had was good enough.
Wrote up the DDL, sample data, etc. Started on the queries. Stopped. Started again from the other direction. Suddenly realized I was missing a link (or perhaps several) between the check table and the tables I've always been pulling from.
If I hadn't seen the "post the DDL, sample data, desired results, and *what you've already coded*" mantra so many times, I would never have sat down, trying to scrub the data, and realizing there was a bigger problem I had to resolve before I even got to the "is this code good enough or does anyone have a better way of writing this query" question.
Thank you all for being there and insisting on basic forum standards. @=)
From my perspective that's a lot of the reason for asking for all that. I know I've started that for a question and found the answer many times without ever finishing the post. Similar to what you've done here.
