I’ve been sending a lot of emails recently.  A lot of them to high profile people, and I have been taking time to review my wording, tone,  and content.  Holy Fluff.  I’ve caught myself saying "check and see"  when that can sure be consolidated.  I’ve deleted HUNDREDS of "that"s out of my sentences.  I’ve given […]

Top 10 never ending rivalries or debates that I can think of

11 January, 2008 (12:04) | Top 10

I was just reading some threads of people going back and forth between HD-DVD vs Blu-ray technologies and which was better, and which is going to survive, and all that jazz.  It’s a template argument where item X and item Y can be replaced with a bunch of different things.  They never get anywhere, so […]
