I know I'm jumping the gun a bit, but in case I'm not at a computer tomorrow (it might happen), happy July 4th!


  
  
  

 
Happy July 4th From Kinky Solutions And Ben Nadel  
 
  
  

Note: While this is not what the holiday was intended for, feel free to take a few moments tomorrow and be thankful for the independence that ColdFusion has afforded us from bad languages such as ASP.

Hahahah, I've actually got ASP to thank for CF. I was developing in ASP (years and years back), but the language sucked so bad I had to look for a new one!

Dude, you need to work on your blog tech. Blogger let's you post-date blog entries so that they will show up for the public view, not when you write and and publish but, on the designated, post-date.

@David,

All of my blogs have a date-posted timestamp. I could simply not have it show blog entries if the post date is greater than the current date... just a matter of actually taking time to make that change in the appropriate places.
