Gaetano has been learning the same mealtime prayer I learned when I was a little girl which is said before every meal where we're all at the dinner table together. It is the youngest person at the table's job to say the prayer. At this past Thanksgiving I whispered the words in his ear as he spoke them out loud. He could barely pronounce most of the words. All of us smiled at how adorable it was...
A few weeks later he wanted to memorize it himself and kept asking to pray and wanting to know the next part of the prayer. By Christmas he had the entire prayer memorized.
If before a meal anyone starts eating, he promptly remembers that we have to pray first and then he proceeds to lead us in prayer. I always let him know he's done a good job, but aside from that I haven't been encouraging -- that is, we're not prayer obsessive in our house. Gaetano has pretty much decided on his own that prayer should be done and not forgotten. It's rather cute and I'm proud of him for it.
Last night before dinner he misspoke one word that nearly caused the rest of us to burst out laughing, but we refrained. It went like this:
"Bless us O Lord, for these thy gifts which we are about to refreeze. Through thy bounty, through Christ our Lord, Amen."
(In case you're unfamiliar with this prayer, "refreeze" should have been "receive".) We decided to eat the meal and not refreeze it.

A good friend of mine, Nicole Fuller, is gearing up to participate in this year's Avon Walk for Breast Cancer held September 17-18, 2005. She can't do it without support and that's because she is required to raise a minimum of $1,800 to participate.
The link above will take you to Nicole's page where you can offer your support of this very worthy cause by making a donation of any dollar amount. Even if it is just a couple of dollars, it all adds up and you'll be helping Nicole reach her minimum and hopefully surpass it by lots more.

It's official folks, ColdFusion MX 7 is now available. If you weren't part of the very large public beta and don't already know what it's all about, be sure to take a look at the new features CF MX 7 brings.
There's a lot of juicy new bits, including application.cfc files, rich forms, the ability to create PDFs and FlashPaper documents on the fly, and so much more...
I'm also pleased to report that Cartweaver 2 CF works in ColdFusion MX 7 as well.

Sorry it's taken me so long to blog this folks... Wednesday night was the SDCFUG Meeting and I have to say it went really well once we got started. I had more than my usual projector problems and at the last minute had to borrow Dan's laptop because it had less trouble. (I had to look at the projection rather than my screen to see what I was doing.) Anyhow...
Having never seen CFEclipse until 2 hours prior to the meeting and only a vague idea of what its capabilities were, I think Rob and I managed to do a nice side-by-side comparison of CFEclipse and Dreamweaver. Both of us realize that the two products are complimentary and neither is intended to replace the other. To that end, our presentation was not a duel of any sort and very good natured and friendly.
As I understand it (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong), there is a limitation that prevents the usual switch back and forth abilities of Dreamweaver with CFEclipse. Hopefully that will be fixed in a future release of CFEclipse making the two programs even more complimentary.
I was quite impressed by Rob and all he's done (and the team that works on CFEclipse) with the program so far. There's a few features in it that I'd love to see in Dreamweaver, like "trigger text" which lets you assign keywords to snippets rather than a keyboard shortcut. Another nice feature that's similar to Site< Locate in Site that fires automatically was pretty cool. I loved that the tag attibutes that you use get removed from the list of available attributes.
I was surprised that all of the attendees have Dreamweaver and use it except for one who chose not to use it since he's mostly a .NET guy anyhow. Usually the CF groups I speak with don't even want to look at Dreamweaver let alone hear about it, so this is a nice change indeed.
I'm going to try to make it to future San Diego meetings, and look forward to the oppurtunity to speak there again in the future. It was nice meeting all of you!
HomeSite/CFStudio and CFEclipse, Dreamweaver definitely is not. Perhaps someday it will be, maybe not...all that remains to be seen. In the meantime, please if you want to see Dreamweaver add features that are part of your other favorite editors be sure to tell Macromedia.

If you're in the Southern California area, I'll be speaking at tomorrow night's San Diego CF User Group meeting. I'll be talking about using Dreamweaver as a ColdFusion developer and Rob Rohan will be speaking about CFEclipse.
Don't be shy; be sure to say hello if you attend. Attendees usually go out afterwards, so plan for a nice evening out with fellow geeks!

this has no place on fullasagoog. perhaps you should start a new blog for your religous banter.
Let us not forget that fullasagoog is an aggregator and a nicely done one at that. You have the option to hide my blog on their site. Feel free to do so. In the meantime, I've emailed them and asked that they only pull Dreamweaver and web-related categories.
I'm not starting another blog. The official description of my blog: Everything from gushy mom stuff to Dreamweaver related things like conferences and extensions. Brought to you by Angela C. Buraglia, co-author of Dreamweaver MX 2004 Killer Tips and various other Dreamweaver related titles.
This post qualifies as gushy mom stuff. So if I offended anyone because they don't share my beliefs, I'm sorry you feel that way. You needn't read my blog ever again if you don't want to; I promise my feelings won't be hurt.

I know the prayer well, and thats indeed a cute story :) I appreciate the fact that you are teaching your child the value of thanks, the value of God, and the importance of prayer.
Thank you.
:-) Thanks Eric. I can't really take credit for all that, he's done most of it on his own. He's a good kid... ~Angela
