  1. @MVPAward PST or PDT? People in Australia don't know if we're on DST or not ;-)
  2. @DBArgenis Where?
  3. @MladenPrajdic they even have a President!
  4. @unclebiguns I use Stuart's cellphone number, and keep asking him questions via text message until he calls me. #DamnImLazy
  5. @AdamMachanic I can. But I needed @codegumbo to teach me how to ask what the column names are.
  6. @sqlinsaneo I never bothered to do that. I had @codegumbo teach me 4 things and I just abuse the hell out of those 4.
  7. @prestonm Here's a more-evolved answer than I have time to type up tonight ;-) bit.ly/LRtx81
  8. @prestonm ... your XSD is
  9. @prestonm It really comes down to how involved your CSV is
  10. @prestonm Neither am I, but I hear that guy's awesome! :-)
  11. @prestonm um. Have you heard of PowerShell?? :-)
  12. @MladenPrajdic Love me some transparent aluminum!!
  13. @kellabyte aha. Well, at least pictures?
  14. @kellabyte ok, you've got my curiosity piqued. Do you have a recipe for the root beer marinade?
  15. @kellabyte Yikes. I prefer to stick with a Balsamic marinade. Let me know how it goes though!
  16. @buckwoody ahh.
  17. @buckwoody And does your wife give them to you?
  18. The shocking part here is.... You have *pagers*?!?! Where did you find them?? :-) -->RT @jsnover @SQLvariant We have devs with pagers.
  19. @AdamMachanic I only foursquare when it's already obvious that I'm not at home but this does make me wonder about a few things.
