The place to go when you've honestly got nothing better to do. Newer posts →. Economic development through elections. Sadly, I thought this headline. Was a joke. It was not. I’m not sure if this is part of. Master plan, but if it isn’t, my advice is free this week only (I can be placed on retainer, however). Because I KNOW you’re interested . . . In what I’m reading right now, have a look at my Google Reader. Happy Black and Orange Day. To my friends in the GTA . . . Regina has a bus? 8212; thanks K.

The place to go when you've honestly got nothing better to do. Monthly Archives: October 2008. Because I KNOW you’re interested . . . In what I’m reading right now, have a look at my Google Reader. Happy Black and Orange Day. To my friends in the GTA . . . I’d also like to send a quick note out to the drivers of Regina:. The right-hand lane is drive-able. No, seriously — you can drive in it. It’s all legal-like. The cops won’t ticket you or nothing. Regina has a bus? Queue vs cue . . . 8212; thanks K.

i hab a code id by node - It's so involved being me
http://janey-emm.livejournal.com/271289.html
Its so involved being me. I hab a code id by node. There comes a point in the lifespan of an extended cold where people lose all sympathy for you. That point is pretty much immediately after you say "I think I have a cold.". Colds won't kill you. They'll just bore you to death. You, and everyone you come in contact with. Contagion isn't about who gets the next box of kleenex. No, you're not spreading germs; you're spreading boredom. You guys, have I mentioned that I have a cold? Wait Where are you going?

puppy love - It's so involved being me
http://janey-emm.livejournal.com/272509.html
Its so involved being me. I would be a terrible, terrible auntie. This is how I know: my neighbours acquired a puppy. I know because they came over to apologize for it; they were worried that its whining during crate training might disturb me. Oh no, I assured them, I don't mind at all. I used to have dogs back home- I hardly even hear it! Don't give it another thought! It worked, too- guess who makes straight for my door every time she passes it in the hall? That's right: my pseudo-puppy. This has worry...

up - It's so involved being me
http://janey-emm.livejournal.com/273650.html
Its so involved being me. It really is too late for me to be an astronaut, isn't it? Unless I pay someone to fly me to the moon, Lance Bass-style, I'm never going to wake up weightless. I'm never going to watch the sun rise over the Earth. I'm never going to tweet from outer space, let alone take jaw-dropping pictures of the deserts and rivers and cities we know, transformed and stilled by distance, perspective. It finds its own way. The difference between the two is like Beethoven to Monet. For the same...

Good Samaritan? - It's so involved being me
http://janey-emm.livejournal.com/271100.html
Its so involved being me. Help, internet: a dilemma. I have been watching an old man in a pretty sharp blazer attempt to use air canada's web check-in for nearly 15 minutes now. This should be a 15-second procedure. Do I try to step in, aging and emasculating him in the process, or do I let him learn on his own, the way nature intended? He STILL doesn't know whether his baggage contains dangerous goods. Argh. Now he's typing where no dialogue box exists. Maybe I should just rent him a car?

Rob Eisler: November 2009
http://roberteisler.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 17, 2009. For the past few years, we've held a pumpkin carving contest for Halloween. People come over and carve their pumpkins, and then the trick-or-treating kids and parents vote for their favourite. I won the first contest in 2006, but I haven't been able to repeat. Kathleen has won the past two contests. Here are a few pictures from this year. Pumpkin Carving Madness 2009 underway. Owen inspecting one of the pumpkins. My entry for this year, good for second place in the voting.

Thursday, February 17, 2011. Using a SQL Table of Numbers. An application that we work with has certain fields where the user is able to select multiple values for a single record. For example, for a contact's interests. The user might select Golf. And for a contact's groups. The user might select Customer. These values are stored as a list in the appropriate contact field, as in:. 1 Joe Smith Customer,Reseller. 2 John Doe Competitor,Prospect,Reseller. 3 Jane Doe Customer,Friend. There are a number of ap...

Rob Eisler: Reading List
http://roberteisler.blogspot.com/2010/01/reading-list.html
Friday, January 15, 2010. I received a few new books over the Christmas holidays. They total somewhere in the neighbourhood of 3,500 pages, so I should be finished reading them all roughly around the end of time. Here they are briefly, and hopefully I'll post some comments as I finish each of them. Don't hold your breath, though. The Princeton Companion to Mathematics. The Book of Basketball. The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born. A Mathematical Nature Walk. January 17, 2010 at 1:29 PM. Close But No Cigar.
