Crab

--Jeff Moden

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.

Rocky Mountain Oysters (and NO, I haven't tried them and have NO intention to do so either)

Ummm - why not?

I like them - you would never know what they were if you weren't told. Of course, very few things turn my stomach (cockroaches is about it).

That image is not the real problem. Try the image of how they are attained in some cases.

Dirty Jobs on the Discovery Channel did an episode last year about it. You could probably find it. And I have witnessed first hand that the oysters really are attained in that method.
