    You do stand up? Any good? I plan on chilling out with the family. Maybe work on the yard a bit.

    Not sure, but probably not. Tuesday will be my premier at an open mic. I have been keeping a notebook for a while, but need to finish a lot of the jokes / observations. I go with a troupe of 4-5 comedians, so I have a lot of support to try it out, and they aren't giving me the option of showing up as just an audience member this time.

        What is everyone's weekend plans? I'm looking at a townhouse tonight. Tomorrow I'm bring my car in for brake work, possibly trying a combat shoot, then meeting up with my friend and his friend that is home from the Army for the weekend. Sunday, hopefully doing music all day, maybe work on my stand up routine for next Tuesday.

            Yeah, I often just walk around looking at people's houses as well. It's relaxing until the police arrive... :sigh:

              It happened to my Mother the last time she came to visit us. She blamed the steak and kidney pie Michelle cooked. Not the bottle of Baileys she drank. Oh no - she never drank alcohol...

                Tie the room down. Seriously; lie on the floor with a rope tied between your ankle and the door handle. It works! Think about it: when you are *that* drunk, everything spins round. Therefore, you are the only stable thing in the universe. Tie the universe down to the stable thing and it stops spinning... Trust me, if you are drunk enough to try it, your ear canals are drunk enough to believe it. (But have a bucket handy)

                Quite possibly the most intelligent thing I have ever read. Edit: No sarcasm was intended by this.

                            It's a CP article I'm writing that illustrates a for-Codeproject app that scrapes your profile page to gather your rep scores every day (via a windows service), and stores those values to a sql database. There is a separate winforms app that shows your rep scores in a chart, and can show projections based on current points-earning trends. I've got the Windows service part done, and am currently working on the Winforms app. I currently have about a week's worth of data stored for myself (had to gather that so I could test with real data). Unlike CPAM, this app will be applicable to everyone because everyone has rep points.

                                      True, and if I'm not mistaken its actually legal to shoot a trespasser over there

                                        According to the posted link, you're currently on version 0. What happened to version 1?

                                        Good question! Turns out version zero (currently 0.15h) is very stable (but not fully featured), so I decided to jump directly to V2, since V1 smells like new-to-the-market and TS has been around for close to 9 years.  I really didn't expect to be supporting close to a thousand (at least the ones that have emailed me) worldwide users. :sigh: /ravi

                                          That's what I as wondering as well? Seems a bit sketchy... :doh:
