I work at Microsoft. These are my opinions and not my employers! Clear enough for ya?

Opinions: They are all mine...unless explicitly stated otherwise, in which case I will always attempt to reference that person's statement as the source. Just to make sure we're on the same page, everything written on this site is my personal opinion. Not my employer...not my daughter...not my brother...not my dentist...not my buddy down the hall...not my neighbor...not my barista...and most certainly not my lawyer. Oh, a quick caveat; some opinions might be that of my dog because, well, he's one of the smartest mammals I know and I respect his opinion quite a bit.

Code: It was written by me...unless explicitly stated otherwise, in which case I will always attempt to reference the creator/source. I will always try to provide the best code samples possible, but keep in mind that I'm not perfect and will never claim to be. As such, I take full responsibility for the code you'll find here. I'm sure that each and every one could be done differently, more efficiently, follow Object-Oriented methodology more closely or even be flat out wrong (regular expressions are my nemesis). If you see an error or have a suggestion for improvement then please email me. I'm very serious about this (really, I am)! I learn something new every single day and often the only way is by someone pointing out a bug or different option in something I've coded. Some of the code might be written by my dog, and, well sorry, but he doesn't provide any sort of warranty.

Comments: You add them, I read them and most of the time I even respond. I prefer to leave all comments in place no matter what they might say about my opinions, code samples, employer, projects or what-not. I believe pretty strongly in freedom of speech and that everyone should be allowed to express their own opinions. Any opinion, even those that completely oppose each other, can be stated respectfully to create an engaging discussion. But, there are limits. And lucky [or not] for me, I decide what those limits are. Yep, lucky me. If a comment exceeds those limits then I will delete it without hesitation, but I will try to be courteous about the situation. Whereas my dog idolizes Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, so if you offend him he might just poop on you.
