Attack of the Formatting Phantom
It’s amazing what a few rogue HTML tags can do when put in the wrong place. I had attempted to post some of Jon Udell’s description of InfoPath.

From my journal
OK, don’t take this post as whining, but, after all, it is my blog, and I can come off as whining if I want. Between working two jobs and other home duties, keeping up an active weblog is difficult. If I have something profound or brilliant to say, I usually wait until Wednesday, so Dean [...]

Slippery Slope? - We’ll see in 50 years, won’t we!
Josh says, “Why do we treat the UN as if it is a legitimate form of democratic authority?” [Joshua Claybourn's Domain]
What happened to national sovereignty? And what about this UN World Tribunal that I heard about? Apparently, Clinton (a Democrat - duh!), was involved in a treaty creating the court, but both have “expressed reservations [...]

I knew it! One prolific blogger and industry pundit, Jon Udell, confesses that he has a lot of time to do this blogging stuff:
Now granted, my vocation enables me to spend a lot of time writing and linking, so I wind up being a more-connected node than most.
