So it will stop hassling me
I have my Google Reader organized well enough that I can step away from it for even for a few weeks and get back in the saddle quickly and catch up. Still, it does take some time to catch up on a few thousand well organized unread articles in one sitting.
As always, I share the best ones I read, but a few required some commentary on why I thought them meaningful. Here are some of those highlights:
I thought the New York Times fired that guy that was completely making up stuff, guess not.
This bear is me.
One shortcut to getting caught up was ditching out of my forums. As of this moment forums are dead to me. Attracting only the most mentally feeble and overbearing monomaniacal of sorts, a complete waste of time eliminated.

Heeeey now, I wouldn't label myself as "monomaniacal" so much as "megalomaniacal."
Semantics, perhaps pedantic, but hey, there it is ;)
Sorry to see you depart DotNetDev.
I'm going to miss your sarcastic and "to the point" messages to those that are just plain lazy in the DotNetDev group. I'd comment, but like you, I just don't have the time and desire to respond.
If find that only 25% of the messages are even worth reading and even fewer are worth saving.
I guess we'll just have to check in here more often to see what you have to say.
The megalomaniacal label does fit you well at times Andrew, but the monomaniac I was referring to was actually myself and my Oracle zeal.
Glen - spending my time being "to the point" and improving the forum content as best I can would still be worth my while in the DotNevDev group if it had any impact whatsoever.
But there was no impact - none whatsoever. The illiterate rude forum one-timers poison the forums, never visualize their own toxicity no matter how politely they are encouraged and then move on to do the same or be replaced by the next MCA toxic-genius.
Essentially, I am giving up fighting the good fight. Which, is sort of gutless - but I've paid my dues, time for others to face the MCA-Fresher onslaught.
