Pizza Dough Sunday

I love making pizza dough and I have been every Sunday night for the
past few months. Makes for a fun make-your-own-pizza night during the
week.

Take a Survey? No thanks!

It seems I am part of a "select group of music listeners" that has been given this fantastic opportunity to give Rhapsody feedback on it's service.

"This survey will take about 20 minutes to complete. We ask that you please complete the survey as soon as possible."

1. Twenty minutes is a long time.

2. Are you honestly telling me to hurry up and take the survey?

3. You offer me nothing in return for my time.

Guess what? This email got deleted. No survey results from me.

Resistance to the Cloud by IT

"IT practitioners in both the US and Europe rate the security posture of on-premise computing resources as substantially higher than comparable computing resources in the cloud."

Experience tells me that this is usually preposterous!

I had a few minutes before my haircut appointment today and checked out the HTC EVO at the sprint store. I must say, the phone is very impressive and though I don't have any ill-will towards the iPhone, Sprint+HTC+Google make a very compelling reason to consider it.
