Back from Vacation!
I'm back from Europe! We had a fantastic time, and saw some incredible sights, but I must say I am glad to be back home.
A couple of quick items to mention. First, we now have an official PASS Chapter for the Cedar Rapids area, called I380 Corridor PASS! A special thanks to the folks at PASS for all of their help. If you're in the Eastern Iowa region and interested in attending or volunteering, please e-mail me at michelle @ sqlfool dot com.
Also, I've received a couple of comments about my latest codebox plugin. It appears that in an attempt to fix one issue, I've caused another. I plan to work on a solution this weekend, but in the mean-time, if you try to copy code from the codeboxes, you'll need to do a find/replace on the single quotation marks. I apologize for the hassle and hope to have this resolved soon.
Finally, the very knowledgeable and prolific Mr. Denny wrote a post regarding Wordle and challenged me to post the results of my blog. I'm just now getting caught up from vacation, so I'm a little late in responding, but here it is:
Pretty neat, huh? Thanks, Mr. Denny, for sharing! And to keep the fun going, I'm tagging Brent Ozar and Jonathan Kehayias (The Rambling DBA).
Update:
The codebox plugin issue should now be resolved. Please let me know if you have any issues with it.

Did you fix the code box problem already? I don’t see an issue with your code right now. It looks like you are using the same plugin I am, so I want to make sure I don’t have the same problem.

Yup! It’s already fixed and appears to be working well. My original codebox plugin was causing issues with my RSS feeds, and the 2nd attempt was causing the quotation issue. WP-Syntax is working like a charm so far. Thanks again!
