Yeah, and dumbass me had to rent a car and haul butt back to Seattle for a mortgage closing that didn't come off until a week later anyway since they couldn't fly contract originals out of NJ to Washington.

So I'm back at work busting but while these hosers are sunning at the pool :-)


>>Yeah, you can only sit by the pool for so long.

>LOL! I was working for Microsoft as a contractor at that time. Ricardo Wenger, Randy Brown, Steven Black, and I were hanging out at the pool passing time and a reporter came along to interview us. We mentioned "FoxPro" over and over again so he'd put it in the article. The next day the article was in the paper with a picture of us laying in the sun and it basically made it sound like the Microsoft employees we were enjoying the good life and preparing for a yachting trip. No mention of "FoxPro" in the article!
