With apologies to Jeff Foxworthy...
If your idea of "taking a break" from working is to lie out in the grass under the sun...and listen to an ADFS podcast on your iPod (Hi Matt!), then you just might be an Identity nerd.

Further evidence that one might be an Identity nerd? Cracking a (surprisingly relevant) joke about RBAC during an episode of Stargate SG-1 that's playing in the background while you work.

The Infrastructure Optimization Model Re-envisioned
So in an internal meeting today, Microsoft's Infrastructure Optimization Model came up as a topic of discussion. The thing was that none of us could actually remember what the 4 stages were, which led to the following:
"Oh yeah, right. The thing with the graphic with the 4 stages that Bob Muglia keynoted about at Tech Ed, goes something like 'Craptacular' to 'Okay' to 'Pretty Cool' to 'The CEO loves you'.'"
In reality, it's 'Basic', 'Standardized', 'Rationalized', 'Dynamic'. But I think mine are far more descriptive, don't you?
If Joe McCarthy did AD troubleshooting:
"Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of a protected group?"
Paraphrased from one of the Philly free papers
The Philadelphia Flyers/Pittsburgh Penguins Eastern Conference Finals drinking game:
- A Flyers defenseman gets injured in such a bizarre fashion as to make you think that God hates Philadelphia. Drink!
- Derian Hatcher takes a ridiculous penalty for doing his job. Drink!
- Mike Richards manufactures a goal out of thin air. Drink!
- Daniel Briere takes a cheap hit from a 'guin to no call. Drink!
- Steve Downie receives an object lesson in what not to do, costing the Flyers yet another undisciplined penalty. Drink!
- TV commentator fawns all over Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby for completing a cross-ice pass. Drink!
- And finally? Daniel Briere1 gets bodily picked up by Hal Gill, thrown into the Pittsburgh goaltender, and then called for a penalty? Drain the bottle!
[1] Sidebar for the uninformed: Daniel Briere is roughly my height and weight, in a sport where the average player height is 6'2".
Life's Lessons Learned from "Dogfights"
[1] Never actually say the word 'Fire!' in an airplane.
[2] Coming in close enough for a gun kill when your bird only has missiles...might be viewed as a tactical mistake during the mission post-mortem.
[3] Pulling out of a nose-dive into a dry riverbed makes you look like a piloting genius, when in fact you are just plain lucky to not be a bit of pancake on the deck.
(And just for the record, I have a very real and abiding love for the P-51 Mustang and the A-6 Intruder. Yes, the depth of my geek-i-tude knows no bounds.)
