    Haha yeah, I RSVP'd last night. I enjoy the show though one co-presenter, the slightly bigger chap who always wears the blazer is slightly annoying at times but overall enjoyable show. I always tune into their Friday show and catch the upload of their radio show too.

    and the brolly bus eh...i'll demand a refund if it DOESN'T look like that hehe :P. Looking forward to the coach ride will be fun fun funnn!!

    my dad is from moville so every summer without fail it was off there for our hols, was a nice little town back in the mid 80s actually, was up there a few years back and time has done it no favours, pity :(

    Ah cool...I have spent a lot of time in Moville & Greencastle over the years...the town has actually improved greatly in the last year or two...they are working at the park area etc. I have family in Carndonagh, just a few mins down the road. (The memories are flooding back!)

    Well quite difficult, I am using MS SQL to store a table of these facts and I want to at random (button press :P) call one and display.

    I have a parser to handle the actually getting of the data its just the query for which I am stumped on...hmmm...any ideas? So far I have

    newfact = dbconnection.ExecuteScalar("SELECT Facts FROM Facts WHERE ID = 10"); obv the id part at the end is where I need to change as thats a static num for its reference to the rows.

    C# is pretty much the splicing together of Java and C++. To be honest this is my extend knowledge of C#. We are studying C++ and Java but we wanted to develop for Windows Mobile so had to learn some c#.

    Meanwhile preparations for the strikes are under way on both sides. Walsh said BA will announce a revised schedule for flights during the strike tomorrow, having pledged today to operate up to seven out of 10 of BA's daily services during a walkout.

    HELLO EVERYONE!!

    I've been lurking in this thread since, oh, way back in October 2009 I think, and just kept putting off joining in.

    I'm from Winnipeg, Canada and I'm going to WrestleMania 26- my first ever WrestleMania! I've been following WWE for about 22 years, and seeing a WrestleMania LIVE and in person has been a dream of mine for about 10 years now. Was going to go to Houston for 25 but couldn't because of financial reasons, but didn't. (and thank God I'm going to this year's instead! The card is shaping up to be 10X better eh?)

    So, ever since it was announced that Phx would be hosting XXVI wayyyy back in February of 2009 I've been planning my trip!

    I think it's awesome that so many of you are coming from overseas. You guys are true, dedicated fans.

    Anyways, my intinerary for my trip (I arrive on March 26th) includes the Suns-Knicks NBA game Friday night, an MLB spring training game & WWE Axxess on Saturday, of course WM on Sunday (I'm on the floor, by the rail! I *really* lucked out getting that seat the first day tix went on sale), Monday Night RAW, then I leave Tuesday.

    Oh, and I'm staying at the Sheraton in downtown Phoenix, and I know many of you will be staying there as well. The place looks gorgeous eh?... If any of you are having pre or post-WM parties I'm definitely game.

    Right now my only concern, basically, is finding a cab after the event (I'm not renting a car)... did you guys there's a freakin' PAUL MCCARTNEY CONCERT at Jobing.com Arena (right beside the U. Of Phoenix Stadium) on March 28th?! What were they thinking? 75,000 people (incl. WWE & U of Phoenix Stadim crew) + 20,000 at the arena for the concert. It's gonna be nuts....

    Well there's more I can say, but I gotta get to bed.. I sure put it off posting here long enough!



    03-28-2010.... the day is coming!

    i called the hotel and they said they do have taxis outside the hotel,the good thing about these taxis are they charge a flat rate and don't run by the meters,problem is going to glendale might be a little money 60 bucks.

    so if you like i got 6 people on my side i doubt a taxi can hold six we can split everyone up and share a taxi to split cost. let me know.

    That's what I'm going to end up doing. Last two years I just checked it in baggage on the way home and carried it on the plane with my luggage. I don't want to lug it around for my Vegas trip tho so just gonna send it back here USPS. Shouldn't cost more than 30-40 bucks USPS Priority tho so not too bad.

    I have been to lots of PPVs and always checked it in baggage for free, and always arrive perfect to my home. This time I have to check it to Las Vegas ($25), and after Las Vegas check it to San Francisco ($25)... So I'll have to spend $50 as extra luggage for our 3 chairs, and I don't like that idea :-(

    If anyone wants to buy one just le me know :) I just need one for me.

    Finally did the ESTA waiver, with one thing and an other I kept putting it off but its done now. Ive cleared my savings account for spending money and will be changing that over on thursday. So besides packing and obsessivley checking the BA website for updates Im all set to go pretty much.


    Oh and Bob Eucker?? Exciting stuff. The Hall of Fame is probably the part of the weekend Im looking forward to least, along with the Meet and Greet-all that time queing to meet someone like RTruth isnt exactly appealing.
