There is a simple beauty about the the Internet that just keeps me wanting more an more.
Anytime; anytime at all I need to see something, find something, it’s just there, waiting for me. Want to hear a song, just search for it and there it is. Just wonderful. Remember those 80’s videos you watched over and over again, just look in utube, they are there, just wonderful. Once we get to a superb quality, WooHoo.
It’s just wonderful
Anyone who has a cube by a window and prefers to have their window closed, should loose the privilege to sit there. It’s just no fair the the rest of us cube-dwellers who long for a ray of Sun.
Oh, but it feels sooooo good. It’s only the second week of June and we had to turn out A/C on already; mostly so everyone will get a good night’s sleep. It’s really, really humid here in Chicago, so much so everything is sticking together. I don’t mind it so much, but anyone with kids knows, let them get a good nights sleep, or everyone will be miserable. I am actually beginning to miss having the windows in the house. It seems it’s too cold from winter, and spring. Then before you know it, it’s 85 and 73% humidity.
Oh well.
There is a new M&M commercial out for their M&M ice cream which really made me smile. Enough, so I had to write about it.
Red M&M and Yellow Peanut M&M are really cold in a freezer wondering if life will go on, when the door is opened and they are asked to leave the stores freezer unit. As they are leaving the Yellow Peanut M&M asks, “Why is my ‘M’ so small.”
As replied by Red M&M, “It’s called shrinkage.”
Nice. 😛
Here is a video of it someone recorded off of their TV:
When trying to connect to a new database engine, I would would receive the following error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
——————————Unable to cast COM object of type ‘System.__ComObject’ to
interface type ‘Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop.IServiceProvider’.
This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for
the interface with IID ‘{6D5140C1-7436-11CE-8034-00AA006009FA}’
failed due to the following error: No such interface supported
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)). (Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop)
I found two resources to fix this; the first is a registry hack, the second refers to dll to register. I chose the second and my issue went away.

As you can see the second link is from Microsoft support, which I gravitated toward fist.
I used the components guid, 6D5140C1-7436-11CE-8034-00AA006009FA, for my search.
Good luck, I hope this helps someone out there
