Progress message of the day
My main workstation is running Vista and lately I've been having disk-related issues that I am having a hard time tracking down.
While copying one of the Microsoft CRM VM file sets to another computer this afternoon, I encountered the following message:
Hmm. I am not totally sure, but I would bet that waiting another 56 years for this copy to finish is pushing my expectations just a little.

Overheard in the park today
this morning, as I was taking a walk in the park, I met a dog and their person who seemed to be having a bit of a disagreement about something. Here is what I heard the woman tell the dog:
You had better buck up. It was your idea to go for a walk.
No comment from the dog, at least while I was within earshot.

Happy weekend everyone
It's been a while since I posted anything of relevance so I wanted to say hi to everyone and let you know I'm still alive and kicking and to wish everyone a happy weekend.
I've been heads-down in about three separate CRM or CRM-related projects and haven't had time to write anything new – but I do have things coming.
Being so CRM focused sometimes leaves me out of the loop when it comes to other, development-related matters. Case in point: Just this morning, I was looking at the Visual Studio start page and I see this article:
How Do I: Create a Basic Language Service Using the Managed Babel System?
Which, as everyone knows, is about this:
Create a basic language service by using the Managed Babel System infrastructure provided in the Visual Studio 2008 Software Development Kit (SDK). Incorporate the syntax for your language using the Managed Package Lex Scanner Generator (MPLex) and Managed Package Parser Generator (MPPG) tools and set up and register your language service into the Visual Studio environment. Hilton Giesenow demonstrates how.
Huh?
I think I'll crawl back into my CRM cave and worry about managing my Babel at some point in the future…
Peace out.

Keeping things in perspective
Consider this: when you think you have a bad day, I think you will find any bad day you may have is better than the alternative:

How long can you survive chained to a bunk bed with a Velociraptor?
My friend Bruce sent me this link:

Being the manly man I am, it looks like I can survive a 1 minute and 25 seconds. Way longer than I thought I could.

interesting boarding process
I flew northwest to fargo and never having flown nwa, I was a little amazed by their boarding policy:
1. elite members, people who need assistance, exit row passengers.
2. everyone else. together.
I usually fly american and am used to boarding by group.
I wonder which is quicker?

Live from Fargo, ND
I'm in Fargo, North Dakota for half the week attending a class. The weather is great here: Blue sky, gentle breeze, 70 degrees or so.
And not a hurricane in sight. ;)
Peace out.

Not something we see every day in Coppell, Texas
Coppell, Texas rarely see's a weather report that contains the words "tropical storm warning." This weekend is just a bit different, as you can see below. Meet the hurricane formerly known as Ike:

hurricane ike is here
we got all geared up for a major appearance by hurricane ike this weekend. luckily for the d/fw area, it slid further east so we're not being impacted as much as expected.
now my only problem is how i'm going to use the $200 worth of beans I bought. ;)
