[AccessD] Converting Customers to VB.Net

ROTFL.

I was just at his house the other day.  Bill sent his jet into the Hickory regional airport to pick 
me up.  They tell me it's the first time a 747 has ever landed their and they were holding their 
breath that it would get back off the ground.  Of course they told me this AFTER I got back.

Anyway, I had coffee with him and the wife.  Just chit chat you know.  He wanted to let me know that 
if I didn't lighten up I'd never make MSVP.  He's such a nice guy, I have to say.  He seemed really 
interested in my welfare.  I tried to raise the bug issue thing but he just blew it off.  Something 
about nobody listened to him either anymore (not that I really believe him).

So I gave him some worthwhile tips on what charities to spend a little of that fund of his on.  He 
also strong armed me for a couple of million $ donation.  How can you say no to a guy like that?

I guess my MSVP chances aren't too good now though, after this whole 2007 thing.  8(

I really have to learn to keep my mouth shut.
