Lasagne, pizza.
One for lunch, the other for dinner. The result? I'm suddenly wide awake at 4 AM.
Silverlight streaming - getting simple
It took quite a while for me to create / produce / upload my first Silverlight streaming application . And the results were pretty low tech. After talking with Healy , I discovered the process can be simplified tremendously, and the output can be so much...
Odd Couple
On Wednesday evening I walked down to the Seattle waterfront, in search of some non-finger food. Unfortunately most (all?) of the shops and restaurants in Pike Place Market had already closed for the day. I eventually found a Tully's coffee shop that...

DATE CHANGE!!! One more for the road...
Update: I have to change the date! We're flying out to Tampa on Tuesday the 15th. As a result, I'm changing the date of my last PND to THURSDAY, February 10 -- as in, THIS THURSDAY. Same location: Lloyd Center. I hope to see you there! Spread...
Portland Nerd Dinner recap - Jan 2005
Ah, another wonderful Portland Nerd Dinner. Very cozy. Very satisfying. 14 people or so made it out to the mall last night for some fun. Greg brought his ultra-cool Sony Vaio which was loaded with his pictures from his trip back from Hawaii on an aircraft...
Top Gun
I took a stroll over to Ian's blog this afternoon and I saw this picture. Hm. That looks familiar. Ian's Top Gun picture I dropped into my TechEd pictures folder and there it was -- my own capture of the same sign. Heh. Everyone with a camera...
Dinner with the DEs...
On Tuesday night I had a chance to eat dinner with a bunch of the Microsoft Developer Evangelists and Developer Community Champions. It's great to be able to get together as a group from time to time to talk about how things are going, what exciting...
Dinner with these guys...
My stomach still hurts. On Wednesday evening I went to dinner with a few guys. The food was excellent, but the laughter… oh, the laughter was too much. I've never laughed so hard in my life. I took the following picture to record the event for...
Envy
[ Update : apparently some people outside the US don't have Dove bars. What are they? A little piece of heaven on a stick. Very creamy vanilla ice cream covered with very rich and creamy chocolate. Click here for my other post about them. (But be...
PND in San Diego - recap
I met a few new Portland nerds (well, they've been in Portland for a while, and they're not new to Nerddom, but I'd never met them at a Nerd Dinner before, so that makes them a new Portland nerd (and no, that does not mean that the world revolves...
It's all about the food. #4
After eating so much rich food the past couple of days, I figured it was time to cut back a little this morning. Nothing fancy; nice and simple. I didn't have to worry about anyone trying to steal my meal .
It's all about the food. #3
I took a bunch of folks from the Northwest to dinner on Sunday night. We wandered around for a while then worked our way to Sally's. It's right on the water, but that wasn't the view I was interested in. My favorite view was Owen's dinner...
A surprise before dinner!
As a gang of us were invading a restaurant, someone spied Anders Hejlsberg. Heh. I couldn't resist. (Sorry Anders!) With Mr. C# (among other things) himself...
It's all about the food. #2
Lunchtime. Ah, yes. A bit of a Mexican flair to the meal. I ended up scraping everything off the tortillas and using them as a "pusher." No, I didn't eat all the black beans, much to the delight of my roommate. As you can see, I went with...
It's all about the food. #1
There are probably going to be hundreds of people blogging about the technical aspects of TechEd 2004. And for a good reason. TechEd is the yearly uber-geek-fest where thousands of geeks descend on a convention center and load their brains with technical...
