It's Friday!

What are you doing this weekend? :) I'm on production support. :| I will be hoping nothing goes wrong in the production servers halfway around the globe. I'm also running a slight fever with a bad cold, which only makes it worse. X| Not to mention my mother called me this morning, saying my grandfather, back in my hometown, is not doing too well. :( All in all, it's not a very bright weekend.
Cheers, Vikram.

Hope both you and your grandfather get to feeling better. I've got 2 birthday dinners this weekend. Tonight I'm celebrating my friend and his son's birthday, though neither birthday is today. And tomorrow I'm going out with some neighbors to celebrate another b-day. I'm looking forward to playing with my new GPS unit tomorrow and doing some geocaching. Then Sunday, I'll be relaxing, cleaning up the house, catching up on some reading and maybe having a pint with a friend of mine.

If all goes to plan; relax on the beach, game of squash, pick the best holiday shots and get them printed, go to an Indian restaurant, watch basketball championship, and if I have time, some programming ;)

Just sleeping... Inspite of the fact that it is September, Chennai is witnessing unusually high temperatures to venture out. With other places around having continous downpour or at least adoring luke warm climate, Chennai is like a hot oven. Oh Well! We do have a Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations coming up on Sunday and so a bit of eatables like Kozhukkattai (Can we translate this as 'Stuff Sweet Burger' or something like that?

Two remarks: 1- The only allowed marquee in a sig is :jig::beer: otherwise it is hard to the eye. 2- I personaly find your red bold color in your pseudo rather rude. It catches the eye, but on the negative way. :suss: No offense meant, just my 2cts :)

I'm sorry your working. Tonight I am bottling an Imperial Stout which I won't be able to drink until March! Then I'll be playing texas hold'em on Xbox Live Arcade. Tomorrow I'm going to was my car and then go to a picnic / party at a friends. Sunday I'll be bottling a Berry Beer which is a raspberry wheat. At some point I'm going to brew John Maier's Rogue I2PA-Extract .

Absolutely nothing. Going back to school next week so I'm just going to relax. Will probably finish rereading berserk manga, maybe buy a pizza or couple of sandwithes and watch something, maybe play a game (unlikely as those are actually tiring) and of course sleep sleep sleep... Well, one exception, I ordered a new case for one of my computers, if it comes I'll put it to use, although that shouldn't take more than an hour.

Nope - for some personal programming projects. The book's WPF chapter was more focused on WPF-native code interop rather than on Xaml and other fancy stuff like that. Are you doing WPF too, Paul? If so I recommend CPian Josh Smith's blog. Good stuff in there.

No, not at all. I was just curious why you would be looking into WPF.

I just thought you worked for CP which is a website and so WPF doesn't come into the picture much. Same reason WPF doesn't float my boat, mainly a desktop app thing and I am a web-dev.

:-) By the way, I do not do any web-dev for CP. I only work on the VC++ products (www.theultimatetoolbox.com) and we still use your css/site-design for the site, Paul :-)

Hopefully I'll get out on my bike this weekend :cool:. I'll need to mow the grass sometime :sigh:. I'll try and see if my daughter wants to go to the movies :). P.S. I hope your grandfather gets better, Vikram :rose:.

The one good thing when I moved three years ago. I went from a smallish house on a 1/2 acre lot, to a large house on a 1/4 acre lot. My mowing time when from just under two hours to 20 minutes :cool:.
