Granted I’m only 34 and haven’t seen all prolific shooters in NBA history, but Ray Allen has the best shot I’ve ever seen.

I can’t even imagine what he would be like if he could create his own shot.

..and btw, Reggie Miller is a close second.

I came across something new for the first time today. Dynamic SQL with output parameters.

Here is how you do it in MSSQL.

DECLARE @totals INT
EXEC sp_executesql N’SELECT @totalCount = count(*) from sysobjects’, N’@totalCount INT OUTPUT’, @totals OUTPUT
print ‘Totals: ‘ + convert(varchar,@totals)

Visual Studio 2008 will be released in November.

Well you know you are an extreme geek when you are excited for a new release of an IDE.

I’m really looking forward to the integrated AJAX tools and the built in MVC framework.
