I’m sick

I’ve got the flu i reckon. It’s been going round my circle of friends. Sheree (chris’s girlfriend) currently has the flu, and pnemonia. Mel is feeling really bad, and I spent the day with her yesterday… I think I caught it from one of them… 😛 I’m at home sitting down to try and eat a bowl of weetbix. Ugh.

Sketch of the masses

So I come home from work and turn my computer on and up appears this picture someone has drawn of the geeks in the flat, their girlfriends, and other characters. Nobody is home yet, but my suspicions are it was Chris. It’s a pretty awesome drawing so do check it out 🙂

Mother of All SQL statements


SELECT ``. * , `regions`.`regionname` ,
MATCH (
``.name_first, ``.name_last, ``.address1, ``.address2
)
AGAINST (
' runner '
) AS relevance
FROM `regions`
INNER JOIN `` ON ( `regions`.`id` = ``.`region_id` )
WHERE (
(
``.businessflag = 0 AND ``.name_last
LIKE 'runner'
)
) OR (
(
``.businessflag = 1
) AND
MATCH (
``.name_first, ``.name_last, ``.address1, ``.address2
)
AGAINST (
'runner'
) > 0
)
HAVING relevance > 0
ORDER BY relevance DESC

OK, maybe not the mother of all SQL statements, but maybe the PHP will convince you otherwise:
