Yes.

Heh . . . I just noticed someone is ignoring me, and wondered if the double-whammy of my soapbox in this thread and my position on spanking and child leashes pushed you over the edge. ;D
I guess it'll remain a mystery.

hehe. It wasn't me. Carry on with the soap boxing. It is entertaining at the least.

Thanks for pointing that out. I haven't been to the Forum Discussion section in while. I knew you could ignore, I didn't know you could see you were being ignored.
I have 2.
Too bad you can't see how many times it’s been turned off and on. At least we have the satisfaction of knowing they’re jumping through hoops to read our messages.

HA HA!
I just checked again, just in case you could click on the number for more information and it now says 3, which means one of those clowns just turned it off to read this post!
<edit 2>
My mistake the above edit didn't make sense. they must have had it off to read one of my other posts and turned it on after reading it.
Which means that guy will turn it off again just to read this useless post.

Just thought I'd mention this thread has inspired me to learn asp and web programming in general in order to help me get a new job in web programming. As some of you might remember I'm a real estate appraiser and am my own boss, which is great when theres work, but things have been extremely slow for the past year and every analyst I've read about so far thinks this year will be pretty much the same as last year. I barely scraped by last year and if this year is the same as last, then I'll be royally screwed around November. I've tried pretty hard to keep it going (marketing, meeting with the local clients, creating an online order and payment system to make things easier for clients, getting certified for more complex assignments), the problem is I can't get work that isn't there (a lot of my regular clients have gone out of business).
I've actually applied for a few computer and/or programming jobs in the past 6 months or so, but haven't gotten a new job yet (my guess is because of my lack of programming job experience in the past 5 years because I know I aced the programming tests a few of the job interviews had).
I've noticed most of the available computer jobs around here are in web programming (asp, php, ruby, etc.), so I figure learning web programming is the most sure fire way for me to find a new programming job in the next 6 months. I learned C++, Java, etc. back in college, so I know a lot about programming, but I've never done any web or database programming, so this is pretty foreign to me. I've already gone through a bunch of tutorials and am now building an order management website for my company. It won't be too fancy, but it will be a recent example of a complex website for me to show off in job interviews, which should go a long way in helping me get a new job.
