Late night workers, unite

Well, the inevitable happened, hence why it is called The Inevitable, I surmise. A day away from Paul Going On Holiday the boss flips, wonders why he allowed me the leave and opens the flood gates. So here I sit* eating pizza, drinking cola, music on loud and looking at about 8 more hours of work. It is a quarter to eight in the evening as I write this. Anybody else in for the long haul tonight? Oh, and funny thing. I finally got a HotMail account, though only for testing mind you, and was presented with a Buy Extra Space screen when I first tried to login. The only button on the page was a Buy Now button, no other links or buttons. Hmmm, how does one use HotMail then I wondered. After some refreshing I decided to try it in Mozilla, hey presto, it lets me through to the Inbox. Tried Internet Explorer, the one Microsoft makes, same people who do HotMail, and still no joy. Well done Microsoft, I am using Moz for HotMail and not IE. * I am the nerd in the right hand image, hiding behind the blue screen. Not the other nerd in the left hand image, that is Dylan, a co-worker in London. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python."

It's been a reasonably succesful day, but I'd just like to complete a bit more of my MyXaml Crud rewrite[^].

I'm still stuck at work too. It's about 20:45 here in Manchester and I've spent the last two hours photoshoping pictures of ladies modelling skimpy underwear for a web site I've been working on for a client. Here's the site if you are interested[^] - it's not open yet so don't buy anything :) Cheers James

Darn, and here I was hoping I could buy one of those fetching numbers for my holiday. :rolleyes: And my condolences. Photoshopping anything for two hours solid is brain numbing IMO. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python."

Argh jeez god no... what happened to me! When did I go from Good Faker to Real Programmer? Put me back! :rolleyes: Long time no see Mr. Duncan, hope you have been busy with worthwhile things in your absence. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python."

Where about is Claremont? I grew up in Hartford and did 2 summer internships for an insurance company located in constitution plaza in downtown Hartford. :-D There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Paul Watson wrote: When did I go from Good Faker to Real Programmer? Put me back! Too late. You're already pulling an all-nighter. No way to pass yourself off as a faker now! :-D Paul Watson wrote: Long time no see Mr. Duncan, hope you have been busy with worthwhile things in your absence. Well, building a house and preparing for the move (or should I say having one built for me) has garnered some of my time and attention. Mostly, however, been brainstorming on the direction of my next book and other writing. The first one was for programmers, the second for people of all businesses. The next will take me out of the business realm entirely and into the general mass market (personal growth / self improvement). My overall goal has always been to show people how they can create their own reality (in a far more literal sense than most realize), and to help them build better, happier lives. My first two books have intentionally addressed the context of people in their professional lives as a way of establishing a few things. However, there are fundamental principals that apply to every aspect of our existence, both business and personal. In the next book, I start speaking about controlling and improving life in general. As you can imagine, there's much to consider first in terms of what I want to say and how I want to present it...
