WebObjects book review

I posted a review of the WebObjects book I read last month. Someone asked me for my opinion of the book today so I took the time to flesh out the pages of notes I took while reading it.

I hope it's helpful to people trying to learn WebObjects by reading the book.

Bush Savors Victory on Energy Bill

This crap bill not get past the Senate. And if does, you can bet your bottom dollar environmentalists will become violent over this if they need to.

SPACEdirect review

Jennifer McGrath, GlobeSt.com: Users access SPACEdirect from a customized homepage

SPACEdirect is NetStruxr's baby, where I work. It's a great feeling to have a product I've worked on be reviewed, especially in such glowing terms.

But I keep thinking, "darn I wish she had reviewed SPACEdirect 2.1, which we released a couple of weeks ago -- it's so much better!"

Indoor Soccer

I was invited to play indoor soccer last night with Nainesh's co-workers. I haven't played soccer in years! (I played for 8 years as a kid and coached kids in '96)

Soccer puts Tennis to shame in the workout department. I felt great by the end of it, but unfortunately, with around 2 minutes left, I tweaked my bad knee somehow. I still don't know how it happened.

I'm paying for it this morning, there's no question I have a strained tendon in my right knee. It'll take a week at least to recover... in the mean time I have a small limp.

I had a great time ... I even scored a goal (wrong footed) during regulation time, and scored during penalty kicks. We lost in penalty kicks.

I'm not sure if I should go again -- I want to, but I don't want to hurt my knee again.
