• Creating Microsoft Excel Documents With ColdFusion And XML

  Posted on May 23, 2012 at 1:18 PM

  I'd like to thank you once again for this post. It helped a lot on a project I was on. I couldn't really use POI, I don't think, because from what I read about POI, a tabular direct display of the data was required...what I mean is what was displayed had to be columns straight down from the dat... read more »

• A Better Understanding Of MVC (Model-View-Controller) Thanks To Steven Neiland

  Posted on May 23, 2012 at 12:35 PM

  I should probably study this more. My usage of MVC isn't always up to par. I used to work for a company that used it, but I have since then fallen away from using it, and I sometimes get confused about where things should go in a strictly MVC environment.... read more »

• Movies As A Religious Experience

  Posted on May 16, 2012 at 1:58 PM

  Acting can, in a way, ruin the movie-goer's experience. I used to be able to get so caught up in movies and their plots, and totally engaged. But lately, I haven't been able to as much with a lot of movies. I try not to ruin for other people by keeping my thoughts to myself the whole time.... read more »

• Movies As A Religious Experience

  Posted on May 15, 2012 at 3:58 PM

  I'll add an example to the discussion...in acting itself. I've done some acting, and I have been around actors who didn't know their own lines, stumbled over mine, and completely ad-libbed, which can be a good thing, but can be hard to follow when the other actors know their lines and are follow... read more »

• Hostek.com Offering Free ColdFusion 10 Beta Hosting

  Posted on Apr 24, 2012 at 1:04 PM

  @Kevin Cruz, Thanks so much for that info! I am also so wary of things like that. Sometimes, when you get married into a situation like that, getting out of it is harder than a divorce. Thanks a heap!!!... read more »

• ColdFusion 10 Beta - Critical Bug In Compiling Function Expressions / Closures

  Posted on Feb 28, 2012 at 3:10 PM

  @Brian K, I think your philosophy is best! I am ok w/ the stay-at-home for women thing...I like to work, and don't mind it. I would rather it be a thing I "want to" do instead of a thing I "have to" do. I know a lot of men don't feel they have this option and it is pr... read more »

• ColdFusion 10 Beta - Critical Bug In Compiling Function Expressions / Closures

  Posted on Feb 27, 2012 at 4:20 PM

  @Brian K, I know this sounds weird to a lot of people these days, but I was raised in an environment where it is still highly encouraged that the man works and brings home the bacon and the woman doesn't work...she stays at home and takes care of the house, etc., and I am not completely opp... read more »

• jQuery Does Not Post Undefined Values In AJAX Requests

  Posted on Feb 27, 2012 at 2:12 PM

  *of course, I meant do you know if you have a blog post for that...I wouldn't expect you to have an entire blog dedicated solely to that. Just wanted to clarify. :-D... read more »

• jQuery Does Not Post Undefined Values In AJAX Requests

  Posted on Feb 27, 2012 at 2:10 PM

  @Ben, I wanted to thank you so much for this! I was having a little problem with my jquery I had written, and I did a search on Google. Your blog popped up about the 5th or 6th answer down. Because they were above yours, I checked the others first before even realizing it was your blog.... read more »

• ColdFusion 10 Beta - Critical Bug In Compiling Function Expressions / Closures

  Posted on Feb 27, 2012 at 1:43 PM

  @Brian K, I have had a top secret security clearance also, and I have been told since I have already had one, I could easily get one again with much less effort than someone who has never held one, so it is still considered somewhat of an advantage if I were going to apply for a job that re... read more »

• ColdFusion 10 Beta - Critical Bug In Compiling Function Expressions / Closures

  Posted on Feb 24, 2012 at 12:50 PM

  @Brian Kresge & @Ben, a few years back, I had a ColdFusion contract which was supposed to roll into a full-time job. Long story short, the company was sold and the new company that bought out the old one decided not only to not extend to a full-time job, but also not to renew my contra... read more »

• Project HUGE: The Psychological Problem With Losing Weight

  Posted on Jan 25, 2012 at 5:54 AM

  Another conversation I am ridiculously late to, but anywho... I read or heard somewhere that on average, weight loss comes from 80% what you eat and 20% exercise. Now, that being said, that is FOR THE AVERAGE person...not someone, necessarily, who trains for the Tour De France. Even thoug... read more »

  Another conversation I am incredibly late to, but I wanted to comment. I know what is said about weight-lifting type of exercises build muscle and therefore increase your resting metabolism, resulting in weight loss, and believe me, I LOVE weight-lifting types of exercises. At the same time, ad... read more »

  I know I am coming onto this WAY, late...you should be used to that by now from me, but I really wanted to comment because this is just SO COOL!!!!! It is something I have suspected for years, but I really HATE arguing with someone unless I have all the facts and/or have specific knowledge in th... read more »

• The Bourne Ultimatum Starring Matt Damon And Julia Stiles

  Posted on Jan 18, 2012 at 1:06 PM

  Often, a post like this one that was post a long time ago comes up because someone posts a comment on it, and I have to read and reply. I have never seen a Bourne movie all the way through (I don't think), and quite frankly...I am sure I am going to commit what most people think is the grea... read more »

• Creating A Fixed-Length Queue In JavaScript Using Arrays

  Posted on Jan 11, 2012 at 1:38 PM

  @Ken... :) right...if I can't find it, it doesn't exist. Oh. Wait a minute. That means there is a whole heck of a lot of stuff out there that doesn't exist (in spite of my previous abilities of being able to find a lot of stuff) @Alex, that sound pretty cool, and something like I would... read more »

• Creating A Fixed-Length Queue In JavaScript Using Arrays

  Posted on Jan 9, 2012 at 10:34 AM

  I don't know, you kind of had me at "Javascript Arrays". I got very distracted, and try as I might, I read the rest of it and couldn't really concentrate on much. The fact that I have distraction problems anyway doesn't help. The reason is, a couple of years ago, I was having a probl... read more »
