Not Another Teen MovieCategory: culture
This is not a cheer-ocracy, I am the cheer-tator, I will make the cheer-cisions around here, and I will deal with the cheer-onsequences.

I admit you could tell me that "" was from any movie and I wouldn't be able to remember it. Yeah bring it on was awesome. Of all the spoof movies besides the scream movies maybe that was the best of them. The fact that they got the guy who was really in Varesity (you know what I mean) Blues was amazing. Or how about when the two token black guys get upset cause they are at the same party, then you have the forgein exchange student who walks around naked. I really need to re watch that movie again. Recently they re released it on DVD.

is that not another teen movie? It sounds familiar from Bring It On? well maybe just the cheerocracy part, maybe not another teen movie took it to the next step

Microsoft Ruby .NETCategory: programming
Microsoft is creating a Ruby implementation for .NET -- I'm sure they will call it something ridiculous like Microsoft Ruby .NET Enterprise Extended Edition 2008. And charge a kajillion dollars for it. Awesome. Or that other thing, not awesome.

You can probably tell that I love it and can't shut up about it. It is good for many things and bad for a few. I am just chagrined to see Microsoft getting involved with it.

Probably it would be more like "Microsoft Visual Ruby Studio .NET Enterprise Extended Edition 2008."

Back to the working world...Category: work
God damn do I have a lot to do this week. All my wonderful plans for trying out some of the new tools and techniques I learned over the weekend have suddenly been crushed by an onslaught of overdue work. Overall it really sucks that I've gotten involved in a ton of small websites, it really kills me to have to do tech support for them - death by a thousand underpaid cuts. Only big projects, with actual budgets and contracts from now on. I swear.
I am looking forward to going to Roswell tomorrow, I finally have an idea of how to create a test harness for my order management system so that I can make changes without causing regression and breakage. It's been sucky to work without the testing tools that I've grown so dependent on. Testing is so awesome, such a confident way to move forward. You end up testing everything anyway, so to do it in an organized fashion actually takes less time then manually verifying that nothing breaks after each change.
