The ASP.NET Resource Kit (similar to the VB.NET Resource Kit) in fact, it’s not even listed on the www.asp.net home page yet! But just got released yesterday (2/9/2004). Thanks to Scott Watermasysk for pointing it out. There don’t seem to be any details anywhere yet (though Scott does quote a few…) , but I would just keep checking the www.asp.net site.

DevDays – speaker training and last day of discount!
Steve Smith and I had to miss the DevDays (web track) speaker training last night because of the Vermont .NET User group meeting. But I know we will have plenty of opportunity to make that up.
Today is the last day for the DevDays discount. If you wait until tomorrow, you will have to spend $24 dollars MORE (well it is an additional 33%…) to attend the day and get not only lots of great training but WHIDBEY bits!!!!! (and more) My point is really the whole days is so damned cheap to attend – $75 with the discount and still only $99 without.
The user group meeting was awesome – Steve is a phenomenal presenter – I learned a ton. But I have to write more about that later.
Will a Newfoundland win Westminster this year?
I have a bit of an affinity to Newfoundland dogs. I have one, Tasha, she is my 5th. My parents breed them (www.blueheavennewfoundlands.com) and keep almost as many as they sell so they have a LOT.
That’s why this is of interest to me! This isn’t one of my parent’s dogs, but Josh is a beautiful gorgeous thing.
Westminster is the biggest and most important dog show in the country.
Steve Smith – a lazy boy
Oh wait, he’s *in* the La-Z-Boy. The chair is a remnant of my husband’s past bachelorhood and was allowed a spot in the basement office. Steve Smith has been honkered down in this chair for a few days by the fire. The cat is none too happy either. That’s *his* chair! Steve is here to speak at VTdotNET tonight and then on to GUVSM in Montreal tomorrow night.

I quit orkut
I did it. I quit. maybe someday there will be value. Right now it looks to me like nothing more than a public popularity contest.
Drew Robbins is not a whiner like me
Drew expresses like a grown up what I have been whining about lately (or did I manage not to publish those posts?). I guess it’s that fatherhood thing that gives him such an adult outlook!

Ryan Dawson having fun with Longhorn
Damn! This is the next in a line of cool stuff Ryan is doing with Longhorn. Very impressive. Trying to remember what I did with all of the free time on my hands when I was 20 (ish)…
