I love Clooney

No not George, Rosemary. My Amazon delivery that had been held up for over a month waiting for "Elaine Strich at Liberty" to arrive, I forgot that Rosemary's "Love" CD was in that batch. Romantic, lush, every word as clear as a bell, her soft voice against sweeping strings, arranged by Nelson Riddle, 'More than you know', 'Black coffee', 'The man that got away', yum, ah bliss. Also arrived is my copy of XPath and XPointer, the work I've been doing in XSLT relies heavily on having a firm grasp of XPath, I'm not there yet hence the O'Reilly. Not for the first time I've been using a developer technology for a while without having any real understanding of what I'm doing. I hate being in that position. I've been finding the IBM XML Tutorials very practical and helpful, you need to register but the quality of the material is very good once you get in. I really want to crack using Xalan with the SQL extensions this weekend, I'll need it to help archive Quine news items. 8:24:00 PM
