So I delayed my lunch.

It is 1345

there has been no talk

so hungry

UPDATE: 1425

UPDATE UPDATE: Talk was at about 1500. Went on until about 1600. Decided not to bother eating until home time. Less effort.

You delayed lunch for a demo of a new version of coldfusion! Coldfusion is a very bad thing that should have been burned years ago. You pay money for bad versions of things you can get for free, plus you get bonus crashes and the it eats all the resources on your server when you aren't looking....

Be that as it may, CF is our company's server technology of choice (I have no say in this). Whatever server issues may exist, it is phenomenally easy to develop for.

Personally I find it an absolute nightmare to update and maintain (I don't write it), possibly the people who wrote the stuff originally where crap....

This seems likely. Easy development also means it's easy to do badly...

Not that you're bitter. ;)

Fool!

Lunch is the highlight of my day - I don't delay it for anything.

Well...excepting a visit from the Great Kitten Gods but that seems unlikely.

Take lunch. Alternatively, cook and eat the coldfusion guy, and consume his brain for the fresh knowledge it holds.

I worry myself sometimes.
