Most of you that know me will say one of the following:

That dude aint got a clue when it comes to development (its true i dont)

That guy's sense of being creative consists of drawing animal figures in caves

Ok enough of the self appreciation.  No im not that bad but its true I am somewhat challenged when it comes to development  Does that make me a bad guy?   Lets put it this way... some of my fellow MVP Developer buds and other community people will break my wagons on this subject (ALOT)  but who do they come to when there friggin environment takes a crap.... who do they come to when they need help setting up a simple test lab.. who do they come to with questions on how to implement Kerberos.. (I really wish they didnt ever come to me for this one actually)   Its ME dammit.  Me and the other Few but Proud IT dudes in the group.  Hey... if it wasnt for guys like myself, Shane and Medero and a couple others you guys would be screwed.  

Enough ranting.  Silverlight....yeah i have seen some pretty good demos of this.. most notably the Halo3 Trailers that were floating around  (My XBox by the way has died a third time with the infamous Red Ring of Death and im somewhat upset tonight)  But who would have though that me.... the simple Admin type.... the caveman could actually embrace this technology and call it my own.   Hell... i didnt think i could either but then came a post by Mike Gannotti that didnt change my life but did open my eyes to the brilliance of Popfly and Silverlight.  Mike gave a short screencast on setting this up and having followed this i was able to actually create my own application and showcase some of the screencasts i did earlier this year... pretty cool.  Have a look here.

So all of you knuckle draggers out there.... UNITE!!!  Make your sites POP.
