Go's error handling: where syntax takes a backseat in the name of... something? 🤷‍♂️ But don't worry, Go is here to save you from your own error-prone ways with zero syntactic help. 🤦‍♀️ #GoFigure

Apparently my signatures are now roaming. Great I think, all I have to do is [what I'm told] click signatures. So, one click of signatures later and hey presto.... Nothing. Nope no signatures at all. #goFigure #outlook #email

It’s 52 degrees F, the sky is completely gray, and there’s an off-and-on mist falling, yet someone still feels that there’s money to be made in my neighborhood. #GoFigure #MisterSoftee #WeAllScream

So the customer has an issue on his production site, I restore that site to my dev environment to debug the issue at hand... working as expected #GoFigure
So back to troubleshooting the server setup / php / mysql / etc...
I love troubleshooting, but today I learned that I only love it when I get it fixed :)

I hated the first episode of #TrueDetective so never watched it until I heard this season had #JodieFoster. It's *amazing*. It's pure genius. And on IMDB all the True Detective fans *hate* it. #GoFigure

Playing a holiday gig and the hit of the night is…

I cannot explain why this is, but I have a viscerally negative reaction to the word “kibble”. I’ve only just started to notice its use in the last few years, but every time I hear it, I cringe mightily. #GoFigure

So, uh, T-Pain covered War Pigs and it is legit faithful to the original. #gofigure

I was never much of a country music fan. About the closest I came was buying a CD of the music from "A Perfect World" back in the nineties and loving it.

Now, after having joined a country band five years ago, I find myself with a much greater appreciation of the music--especially from the fifties and sixties. Right now I'm ripping about 20 CDs worth of old country CDs I borrowed from my in-laws and am actually looking forward to listening to it! #GoFigure #YeeHaw

I was just reminded of the time many years ago when a fellow tech supporter was on the phone with a user and trying to get them to type the ampersand character, but couldn’t remember what it was called, so she just said “type a capital 7”. That worked! #GoFigure #TechSupport

Well, last night was the first time a fire alarm had gone off during a gig. The irony was that we were getting ready to play “The Fireman” (George Strait). #GoFigure

I'm an almost 50 year old native English speaker and only today realized that "close" and "close" are spelled the same. I mean, I knew about "read" and "read", "console" and "console", "lead" and "lead"... but somehow I missed this one until now.

In today’s physio session I was unable to perform a simple knee bend beyond about 30° while lying on a physio bed with a slippery plastic board on it and a soft sliding cushion between the ankle and the board.
Yet back in the hospital bed I can do the same activity and achieve 120° bends without significant pain. #GoFigure

I’m not complaining that I have the theme from The Rockford Files stuck in my head; I would just love to know how it got there. Haven’t watched that show in decades, yet there’s the theme song in a constant loop. #GoFigure
