But, I do know that if you put Townes Van Zandt into Pandora, you will get a damn good radio station to drink whisky to

You can even skip the whisky,it’s that good

Now as you were

So ends Bachelor Week 2009.  Cherie has been out of town for a week now, attending to Josh and Erin’s wedding.  I’ve kept myself occupied with puppies and crab fishing.  The weather has been fairly decent, up until yesterday when the rain started coming down around noon and didn’t ever really stop. 
However, it feels like most of my time is being taken up by work these days.  I’m working on a project that requires a separate database, so I’ve been looking into using PostgreSQL.  I’m really enjoying working with it so far; the syntax and style has some similarities with Oracle and I like the MVCC locking model that it uses (I’m not a big fan of the hard row-locks/table-locks that the various MySQL engines use). 

UPDATE: I began writing this post shortly before shit hit the fan.  Published for historical purposes
