• Coming clean about the road trip...

  I can't take it any more. I've kept a secret from you, my listening public, and it has been eating me up inside ever since that fateful day in San Diego. We were driving from San Diego to Los Angeles when we heard a loud THUMP as if we just hit something big. Being up so high, you know, you don't alway see what's going on right under your nose. It's got big windows and all but sometimes people do silly things... like run out in the road right in front of you, and before you know it you've hit them. Well that's exactly what happened to us. We pulled over and looked back, but we didn't see anyone or anything lying in the road. Then we looked at the front of the RV and we saw this: (scroll down) ; Posted Dec 18 2005, 08:55 PM by Carl Franklin with 7 comment(s) Filed under: .NET Rocks!, Road Trip 2005

• This week on .NET Rocks! and Mondays

  .NET Rocks!: Andrew Brust on Business Intelligence and OLAP Andrew Brust talks to us about OLAP and BI, specifically about the new features of SQL Server 2005. This was a great show from my perspective, not having any real OLAP experience. http://dotnetrocks.com/default.aspx?showID=159   Mondays: The We Suck Show Carl, Richard, and Mark discover that it's hard to be funny when Geoff isn't there to groan and Karen isn't there to giggle. Needless to say, we think they pulled it off. You'll have to add your own laugh track, but if you don't like it you can always get your money back. Carl geeks out again, Mark rants, and Richard talks toys. Gee. Sounds just like the last show..*sigh* http://mondays.pwop.com/default.aspx?showID=45     Posted Dec 12 2005, 10:57 AM by Carl Franklin with 6 comment(s) Filed under: .NET Rocks!, Mondays
