The best performers I've ever heard play for themselves. Sometimes they happen to have an audience.

I just saw West Side Story on the 29th and the one comment I made to those I talked to about the performance was how great the orchestrated music sounded. Not the actor/actresses or how well they did, not the set design (which was in hindsight pretty cool), not the lighting or our seats (nosebleed). From our seats, we watched the timpani player (with some other percussive pieces) and were amazed that he could sit there for 5 minutes, play a few rolls and sit back until the next fusilade.

Nothing much ... what's snoo with you?

I find that living next door to my doctor works pretty well;)

I take security very seriously but have purposely left my wi-fi accessible to whoever would want to use it. Instead of password protecting the wireless link, I made sure that the access point was secure and isolated from the rest of my network. Want some free wi-fi? Come and use mine for free!

HEY!

I loved my Vega - though I replaced it's wimpy straight-4 with a Monza V-6 and made extensive modifications to the rest of the car. Actually, it seemed like it was never quite done but perhaps we all just have a soft spot for our first car ... never mind;)

P.S. At least it wouldn't explode if hit from behind!

OpenERP (http://openerp.com/) has an integrated CRM. I've had great success with this project and the database is completely accessible via XML-RPC if you need custom functions. I've also used SugarCRM, but am not nearly so enamored with that project.

Given what I've heard recently about the quality of business analysts in IBM's consulting group ... I'm not surprised that it took three of them to come up with this idea. And a quick prior art search would show that Domino's Pizza had a system for automatically providing freebies in the late 70s (If the pizza guy arrived more than 30 minutes after you placed your order, he automatically gave you the pizza without taking your money:)
