Are you about to start going "nanu nanu" again?

Bah, whatever that thing is, they had no right to name it after my world. I have just informed the ruling council, and our leaders were so insulted by that purple cat-thing, that they have launched a fleet of warships to annihilate this puny planet.
Unfortunately, while our FTL communication is working perfectly, the FTL gateway is on the fritz, so the ships won't be here for... let's see... 6,293 years, plus or minus a decade depending on traffic at the junction at Barnard's Star.
But rest assured, when those ships arrive, this planet will be destroyed! I mean, assuming there isn't another software glitch in the AI, like that last incident on Gallao III... Those poor species... But this time it'll work!

Have you called home lately ET? 
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

ET? Bah... Escaped farm animal... Looks ridiculous, but fetches a nice price when cooked properly.

That looks like the unskinned eye of an evil whose name I will not utter here.
Or it's pretty. I'm going for pretty.

One of my fav objects...
I used to go to Mount Pinos and setup thousands of dollars of telescope and computer gear trying to catch a tiny image of this an other objects.
That was an expensive and utterly frustrating hobby. Most trips either ended in mechanical/electrical or computer failure rendering the entire weekend useless or you might actually get off a shot only to have a cloud or 757 cruise through it. Once in a great while, a really long long time everything would go just grand and you'd get a good shot.
Being Earth bound you are limited. We all used to sit around on cloudy nights and dream of the day when we could have our own personal Hubble space telescopes... Don't think I'll live that long... So APOD keeps me going... that and iTelescope.
Nice!

I have 8+ years of development experience in asp.net/sql primarily, some WPF/win form. I am wondering what's your opinion if you have next serveral months to focus on some technology?
A few things in mind as below with my order of preferrence what's your thought?
MVC
WCF
Mobile development - iOS and Android
Application/Solution Architecture
Thanks!

Do you know linq? It's worth some time for sure.
Personally, I think wcf before MVC.

Agreed!
var itemToLearn = DotNetTechnologies
.Where(o => !o.IsKnown)
.OrderByDescending(o => o.Usefullness)
.ThenByDescending(o => o.Awesomeness)
.First();
Assert(itemToLearn == Linq);

CListCtrl is always handy...as is LiquidNitrogen.

More specifically, "reading perl syntax". 6 months is too short to learn "perl".

Herself picked it up a lot quicker than that: "Knit one, perl one. Knit one..."

I hate how much I love working in perl. It's no C++, and I wouldn't recommend it aside from being flip. But damn it sure does make hard stuff trivial.
