      I sure wish "The Code Project" would hire a real joke writer to write the jokes placed in the News area. What is placed there now is really bad! Do it right, or don't do it at all. X|

      Thank you -- here I was going to accuse Chris of sending a bunch of folk to compliment me after a couple of bad days on the newsletter. Glad to see my despair is still warranted. Feel free to send suggestions...

          More jokes? Seriously though, I'm a late comer to the thread but Hamed has the right of it, great job man :)

                Given the piss and vinegar that flows in the Soapbox, we know what they've been drinking X|.

                  Be careful what you wish for. I might volunteer my services, and I like puns. You have been warned.

                      Hey Maunder! I realize I am hated by some, but I am an ameteur stand-up. I really am trying to break into the business.

                        insider@codeproject.com or kent -at- codeproject.com He'll love the feedback. He gets flak and praise in equal amounts and has the hardest job in the world: provide interesting relevant news that isn't simply regurgitating a company's press releases while providing commentary that puts things in perspective. Kent worked at Microsoft for years (he used to sneak us into Building 42) so is intimately familiar with the Microsoft space and even the guys who write the stuff. And he's so nice and shy that you just want to give him a hug.

                        I sometimes find his comments cheesy, and other times damn funny, so in all, I suppose he's doing a very good job, unlike the dismal failure that was MFD[^].
