Yesterday I presented CFGroovy to the Tulsa CFUG via Connect. The recording is now available on Connect, thanks to Steve. You can also grab the slidedeck (as a PDF) I skimmed through, and of course, the CFGroovy framework itself (project page, core SVN, demo SVN), including the demo files that I showed.

If you can identify this pair of shoes, I'll buy you a drink of your choice next time we meet. If you're wearing a pair of them, I'll buy you two.

This morning, in response to my Processing and Galcon post, I received this email:
Hey,
Stumbled across your article about using processing :) Sounds neat!
Anyway, I don't like having to make these requests – but because of how
trademark stuff works I have to request that you change the name of your

If you've had any contact with me (meat- or net-space) for the past few months/years, you undoubtedly know that my life has been a bit rough. But it seems that the worst is behind, which is a relief such that I cannot express. I've been officially divorced for two months, living on my [...]

From an email Sean Corfield sent to the Fusebox5 mailing list (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/fusebox5/message/4566):

This morning, Heather and I cooperatively filed for divorce. This eventuality is old news for some, expected by others, and out of the blue for the rest. I have not been forthcoming with this information outside need-to-know situations for a variety of reasons, the primary one being that without any agreement between Heather and I [...]

Ok, people, where are all the web frameworks that will give me a CTRL-S, ALT-TAB, F5 workflow? As I've been shopping around, it seems everything requires more than that. Some places you can script the additional steps into the refresh, but not always. Am I the only person that doesn't want to have a million [...]
