In case you’re wondering why I’ve been so quiet of late… ColdFusion 8 aka Scorpio is coming!

Mea culpa, I’m a programmer, not an artist.

lol … I like this one.
But what does it say below the dev team? Can’t read it.

“CF ENGG TEAM” - the CF Engineering Team. You got it right!

Take all the engineer’s out, move the CFCommunity to the top, give them all a whip and put me dragging the scorpion and that is what its like doing CFEclipse….

@Mark/Sisyphus, more carrots, less sticks, perhaps? I said it when we met at MAX, and I’ll say it again - I love CFEclipse. Keep that rock a-rolling!
@Paul, Damon’s not all that bad… well, almost!

Are you trying to say that Scorpio is a huge, slow moving slug and that the engineers have to work like slaves to get it to go anywhere?
Ashwin | 08-Mar-07 at 5:54 pm | Permalink
Slug?!?!? Hey, that’s a scorpion, that is!

Why wasn’t this submitted when Tim Buntel asked for Scorpio logos? That is one seriously bloated scorpion however. Is there any meaning to his lack of a stinger?

This is great. It left me with a big smile this morning…

Is that “Scorpio Man”?
Don’t forget phase two where no free version of CF leaves Scorpio talking to a user who wants to upgrade to 7 with the stinger hovering above them. Scorpio says, “Are you sure you want a free version!”

(note to self: to I have Ashwin working weekends now…judging by this I really need to cancel his sleep time as well…)
Nice!

Note to Damon: Cancel Ashwin’s sleep time and you deal with me.
…I’m the only one who gets to do that.

Anasuya, absolutely, understood.
(note to self: send Anasuya flowers from the team…)
To all of the patient, understanding and supportive significant others of the folks on the CF Scorpio team), thank you.
Your support has been felt on the team, and is greatly appreciated.

Note to Ashwin: Now I know why you work weekends; you have a charmer for a taskmaster!
Note to Damon: Thanks so much, sniff.
Note to others: All is explained. The answer to ‘O Death March, where is thy sting?’
