Ditto, Bob, looking forward to it.Joke for today.
Bob walks into a bar in Seattle. It's crowded with PASS participants. He hollers out:
"When I drink, EVERYBODY drinks!!"
The crowd cheers and orders new drinks. Bob receives many welcoming handshakes and pats on the back.
Minutes later, Bob finishes his drink and shouts out:
"When I have another drink, EVERYBODY gets another drink!!"
More cheers. New orders all around. Much congeniality ensues. A good time is had by several.
Finally Bob reaches for his wallet and shouts out:
"When I pay, EVERYBODY PAYS !!"
Ba-dum-bump...
... and then when Bob sees EVERYBODY run (towards Bob), Bob runs too!!!!

Right you are, Alvin 😀
Jack and Gail: I'm not sure if they serve coffee in Seattle. But, if so, you are both covered 😉

:hehe: Bob's courteous greeting after my post there is just amusing... Sorry Bob.
To track back a page or so, Barry, hope you feel better soon, back pain is definitely not a joking matter.
Jeff, now I feel just a little better about not being able to get to PASS myself (not much, but a little). Thanks for venting...

Thanks Jon. I think I've seen it before, but couldn't remember. Just feels weird typing jcrawf02 when replying or referring to you especially in The Thread.

Wow. Just finished a 16 page long performance report. I so hope the client wasn't expecting an 'all-clear' cause it's not.
One more report to do (tomorrow, maybe thursday if all goes according to plan) then I can concentrate on fixing the problems with my slides and demos that I found in the dry run last week and reinstalling Win 7 on the laptop.
Edit: Oops, almost forgot. Have to get the slide decks, demos and other resources up on my blog too....

yikes, 16 pages... At least they'll know what they need to do to fix it.

For a limited time only... my real face. Just so I won't have to wear a biohazard mask to the SSC Casino.
