  • Fourth of July Bloopers

    Here you go. The raw ones.

    It’s a holiday, and usually I’m spending time with the family and enjoying the day.

    In all seriousness though, this is an important day for US citizens. The birthday of our country. Take a moment and read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution and remember how our country was founded and the principles we should hold dear. Interpret things today, but remember that this country was founded on the idea of freedoms.

    Despite any differences with other citizens, we should celebrate our country.

  • Happy President’s Day 2012

    Happy President's Day

    It’s President’s Day in the US, and a holiday for me, so I’m having a Daddy Daughter day in Denver, away from work. Hopefully most of you in the US also have the day off and are enjoying yourselves away from a computer.

    For those of you in the US, I hope your code compiles the first time, queries return quickly, and you enjoy the blooper reel I’ve compiled from the last few months.

  • Happy Halloween 2011

    Happy Halloween!

    Happy Halloweento everyone out there. It’s the holiday that my kids love, with the chance to dress up and pretend to be something else for the day. I haven’t dressed up in years, but I still remember being a young IT guy, coming into work at 7am before everyone else with a gorilla mask and hands, in a suit and getting a few screams from people walking into the office.

    It’s a vacation day for me, taking a break between my trip last week for SQL in the City and heading to SQL Server Connections tomorrow. Hopefully I’m skiing, and then taking the kids out tonight for some fun before I leave town tomorrow.

    It’s not a holiday for most people, but I hope you have a quiet and productive day. For a little entertainment, I’ve got a blooper real below you can enjoy.
