Show notes – the last several, because I’m behind and disorganized and GET OFF MY BACK, OKAY?? Sheesh, some people…

Rough show notes for the last several weeks…follow…

March 17

No idea, actually. We must’ve done something…

March 24

We were in London. They, uh, don’t have internet there.

We took the whole family to London for a week, and the two of us attended and spoke at SQLBits that Saturday. Excellent times were had by all. I highly recommend the history, the conference, the beer (long pulls!), and RS guidebook. I do NOT, ever-ever-ever, recommend EasyHotel or AA.

April 6 – Post-London (ep 36)

Going over SQLBits and my screwup
