I have been reading this blog for some time (one of the best on SQL Server).  Ya need to check out yesterday’s post (a list of Microsoft Whitepapers on SQL 2008).

If you want to learn more about Microsoft SQL Server and SQL coding… I HIGHLY encourage you to check out the SQL Server Code,Tips and Tricks, Performance Tuning blog.

I love the quote from the site… (being a big Yoda fan & SQL Server fan & Geek)

I sense many useless updates in you… Useless updates lead to fragmentation… Fragmentation leads to downtime… Downtime leads to suffering… Fragmentation is the path to the darkside…

DBCC INDEXDEFRAG and DBCC DBREINDEX are the force… May the force be with you”

And how their email address is protected… genius…

“run the code below in Query Analyzer/Management Studio to get my email”

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(31),0×73716C736572766572636F646540676D61696C2E636F6D)

Some weird Internet searches that brought people to my site:

FYI: No one got here searching for boobies like on my other blog!

• toilet rss reader (kinda interesting)
• 80072745 (by far the most referred search!!!)
• Windows live Massager 80072745 (Massager???)
• enternet explorer (hehe)
• www.acstechnologies.not program (.not ???)
• stupid programmer (hum… how did that happen?)
• free metal music (sign me up!)
• Code Advisor (at StupidProgrammer.com?)
• christopher reeder (hey…that’s me)
• sql prompt 3.5 (GREAT product)
• “chris craft” taylor data systems (that would be http://cjcraft.com/blog/)
• fayetteville nc “users group” c# (not one… try http://pdanug.net)
• using radio button if,then ,else statement in vb.net (that is a refined search!)
• “Chris Reeder Rocks” (just kidding… made that one up)
• “Free is for me” (ya got that right!)

It is neat to take a look at how people end up at your site… And these are just since January 1st, 2008!
