Quote of the day

MDX is God’s gift to business language; When God created Adam and Eve he just spoke [Humanity].[All Members].Children . That’s how powerful MDX is.
Amen to that, Pedro Alves!
Probably not the best way to get a girlfriend
Whatever happened to simply going out and chatting girls up in bars and the likes? Read more
Cinder blocks, anyone?
