Thanksgiving was over a month ago.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

Yah, you Canucks are weird.
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell
You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

I'm thankful for not living in the part of the world where they celebrate Thanksgiving

That's news from 2010. I've never heard anyone about Thanksgiving and I live in the Netherlands.
Don't believe everything you read on the internet 
Although I wouldn't be surprised if it became a celebration here too.
People have been celebrating Halloween for the last couple of years too.
And even St. Patrick's Day is celebrated in the cities... 
People like parties and Halloween, St. Patrick's Day and Thanksgiving are just (really very lame) excuses to partAAAY!!!

Check.  
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

You must be a city boy then if you've never heard of an 'Oogstdankfeest'. Granted they've become less and less. But when I was a kid we had a 3 day celebration in our city town village. Oh heck, it was just a couple of streets in the middle of nowhere.

Where did that Mayflower sail to? The Netherlands? 
The party is modelled to a party in Leiden, making it special for that specific city.
--edit
Assumed that the topic would be about dinner. Kinda dissapointing.

I had a pair of those but they were too tight. Made my feet comfortably numb.

One of these days, I too will buy a pair.

I agree, sometimes it seems as though there's no time to breathe.

Whenever I find a great technical book I really like to discuss it.
It is so rare when a technical book really does a great job of what Jeff Prosise called "Telling the story of technology".
I read a bit of the old version of this new WCF book, years ago, but WCF went through a lot of changes and this new version has just been released (digitally the hardcopy isn't even available yet).
Programming WCF Services: Design and Build Maintainable Service-Oriented Systems - Amazon link[^]
Well, I just completed the first chapter and it is fantastic introduction to WCF.
WCF technology is very broad and amazing and it is also overwhelming but this author has done a great job in this book to explain the over-all architecture and solutions that WCF helps you build while still providing very specific details of how to implement the actual code of WCF.
Has anyone else started reading the book? It's fantastic.
Architectural Thinking
The reason I like the book so much is because it provides such a great overview of all these technologies that are a bigger view of how Enterprise Applications should really be created. And thet reading is so smooth. Really great stuff. It takes a great author to be able to do that.
Even the stuff directly from Microsoft doesn't pull it all together the way this book does.
