RT @way0utwest: A nice gift for the SQL people, MVP Deep Dives, from @Aunt_Kathi http://www.sqlservercentral.com/blogs...

Just have to take a second to wish my wunnerful wifey happy anniversary! Can't believe you've put up with my sorry butt for 13 years! Luv ya snookums!

@lazycoder Are you insane? Don't you know the carnage, death & destruction in these last hours of holiday shopping! And that's just aisle 1.

Got my eldest girl the Lego Anikan Skywalker fighter. She got to open it today. Daddy is now cool. #kingofgiftgiving

@dyfhid Thanks. Actually we were just friends then, didn't start dating until a couple of years later. #littleknownfactsaboutme

@buckwoody Two! Quality control went way down after we left. (And before someone asks, yes she did work in testing.)

I met my wife in a condom factory. Today is our 13th wedding anniversary! #littleknownfactsaboutme

RT @alent1234: RT @ManningBooks: Deal of the Day: 50% off all ebooks (MEAP and published!). Use code dotd1221. http://www.manning.com/ aweso ...

Played #COD4 last night for a few hours. Did sniper level. Way cool, even when helicopter landed on top of me. #splat #ow #justafleshwound

Last week was looooooong. Did parade, shopping w/Kids yesterday. Burned out today, moslty vegging.

Went into books store yesterday, looked at SQL books out of habit, saw #SqlServerMVPDeepDives on shelf. 2 copies! Weird experience.

@SSISBI Thanks, thought of that as I was falling asleep, will try when I get to office. Not sure why it makes diff on srv but not my PC tho

OK, brain fried, made it down from Nashville to Huntsville tonight. Up all night fighting with SSIS. Big delivery at NASA tomorrow better get some z's so I can appear semi-human.

Wow this has been a long day. Stayed up way too late working on SSIS issue. When I run it via DTEXEC on my machine, everything is fine. When I copy to sever, using exact same command line it complains that the package passwords are not being decrypted, even though none of my packages have any passwords. Any one got any thoughts?

Need help w/SSIS. Run Pkg via dtexec my box, works OK. U/L to srver, same cmd line, errors on pkg pwd even tho I don't have pwds. Ideas?

Awesome RT @NASA_Ares We work for NASA and have never seen a shuttle launch from some these amazing angles before. http://vimeo.com/7852885

@Brndon I used to do ToastMasters, great org, just ran out of time. DM or E-mail me and I'll hook you up with contact info for Bham groups.

Another day "in the hole" in Nashville. Bug fixin' for big delivery. Going well.

Oh hey, this is cool. Was just awarded Bronze Album Listener for ZZ Top Live From Texas from Zune Marketplace. Neat.

Time to grab shower & throw few last things in suitcase, out of town all week (Nashville) finishing up project.

@devhammer @alanstevens I find best buy works best when you already know what you want to buy and don't need help.

@devhammer @alanstevens I did find out tho for a few $$ you can buy protection for video games so if they get scratched u can return them.

On the road again... just can't wait to get on the road again...

Off to Nashville for a week of high pressure crunch time last minute project delivery fun.

@ViNull I had the reverse ordered gift for kids, was told was backordered 'til next yr, order something else & everything arrived this wk.
