Help A SQL Sister Out

I have a friend named Yanni.  Many of you know her as well.  She needs no last name here – how many Yannis do YOU know? Yanni is an amazing soul, so many times giving of herself, without thinking of herself.  Earlier this year she stepped in to make my son Trevor’s serious hospital stay so much brighter though [...]

What a Long, Strange Trip It’s Been

Editor’s note:  when I started this post it was supposed to be a coming-out event.  A “Hey! I’m Back!  Let’s get back to spreading some technical ju-ju!”  However, after the first sentence that all went to Hell.  I’m finding the more I write, the less control that planning has in what I write.  I don’t know [...]

Watching The Clock

Through the Looking Glass

  Many of you by now have seen the tweets or Facebook posts about issues surrounding my ten-year-old son, Trevor.  For those who have publicly, privately, or unbenknownst to me expressed their support (for the most part) to a kid they’ve never met before, I appreciate it and then close this run-on-sentence. Up until 8 months ago Trev was a [...]

Alaskan Cruise Photography – Day One At Sea

The next batch of photos are up at Flickr for our first day at Sea.  We departed from Seattle at 4 on Satuday and spent Sunday in its entirety cruising through the inside passage.  I was able to do something I had not done in a long time – nothing (requiring a computer).  Yoga, spinning, [...]
