Buck Woody Has Issues
I’ve been orbiting in and around Buck Woody’s (web / twitter) circle of sweetness since we co-presented on SQL Server DMVs yesterday for Quest Software’s Breakfast with the Experts panel. Without getting into what I’ve learned from him on a technical level (much) I did learn that he is an equal-opportunity offender. Here is just the list of those that Jen McCown (the better half of MidnightDBA.com / twitter) kept count of in his final session (on Performance Tuning in SQL Server 2008).

Haha, I’m surprised he didn’t find the time to lambast both “metrosexuals eating bananas” and “metrosexuals not eating bananas.”
