Not because I hate to drive. I hate to have to deal with other people.
Because of such I dedicate the following to all people who drive in the tri-county area.
*please forgive my grammar, just tried to remember from when I heard him live*
I would like to see .NET related versions of the Pragmatic Starter Kit - Volumes 1 and 3.
Perhaps, Pragmatic Version Control with VSTS/VSS, and Pragmatic Automation with MSBee/MSBuild or CC.NET.
Just a thought.
This is a program I use every day, and now it available to the public, and did I mention that it is free?
Your programmer personality type is:
DHTB
You're a Doer.
You are very quick at getting tasks done. You believe the outcome is the most important part of a task and the faster you can reach that outcome the better. After all, time is money.
You like coding at a High level.
The world is made up of objects and components, you should create your programs in the same way.
You work best in a Team.
A good group is better than the sum of it's parts. The only thing better than a genius programmer is a cohesive group of genius programmers.
You are a liBeral programmer.
Programming is a complex task and you should use white space and comments as freely as possible to help simplify the task. We're not writing on paper anymore so we can take up as much room as we need.

When I was growing up I knew that 6 o'clock meant local news and 6:30 meant National News ... without question. Before I was allowed a TV in my room (quite a young age) if I wanted to do something in the family room at 6, I did so as to not interrupt my Parents' watching of the news. Let me just say that I thought that interrupting them would bring down something wrathful, I just knew that they took it very seriously, and wanted to show some respect. Local news was often dull and uneventful, ("Aww did we miss the weather?") and the National News did little but show me just how messed up the world was. As I grew up I found that the 6 o'clock hour was also home to Seinfeld reruns, and syndicated Simpsons. When I did go to watch the news with my folks I would still be just as frustrated to upset by the state of the world. So....I don't watch the news any more. I don't read news papers (I will read them but I do not make a habit of it) I know that it is very ostrich-like of me, but at least I am not pissed off by 7.
As of around 11 am this morning I have been married for 4 months. I am happier than ever, and I I look forward to every new day with my beautiful wife.
I love you Barb.
...Until 2007. Not a lot to report here.
Christmas was - as ever - an interesting matter.
