That's when the Martian got the tour of your fossilized sea creature, no?

That's what I call a 'hanging post' UNP. No one will know what I mean without going back a page.

Guess I shouldn't have been making so many jokes.

I do seem to recall my mouth going off half-cocked and challenging him to a whiskey contest.

It's good to be the King! 

Well, OK.  Maybe that's pushing it, but it IS good to be married to the Queen!

Status: offline 		It's going well, Leo, thanks!  It is much different from the software testing job I've been used to doing.  This one is mostly using SQL to test the accuracy of data collected from many different school district's standardized testing, and then verifying the accuracy of the reports we generate for the school districts and individual students.  I'm learning a lot about SQL that I never had a chance to learn before, but I wonder if I'll be bored out of my mind in a year or so.  I don't want to lose all of the different software testing skills that I've accumulated over the years.

Everyone is very nice and has been welcoming, and they provide free coffee, so maybe I'll stick around for a bit.

Knowing SQL can open doors to other types of jobs.

That's why.

Peace out.

Status: offline 		I mostly agree. Not that having the #2 fattest payroll in the MLs earns the Bosox tons of sympathy. But it's got to forever stick in the Yankees craw to be the first (and only) team to blow a 3-0 Pennant series lead and lose to the Sox.

As an older member of Red Sox Nation I now officially have sufficient fansatisfaction to feel alot of sympathy for the Cubbies. If it ever came down to Boston vs the Cubs, I wouldn't even cry in my beer if the Cubs won the series.
