20 INCHES of snow.... WOW!! When I moved up to Chicago in January, I expected at least a little snow.... boy, weve gotten just little snippets of snow and that's it.... disappointing. Now I know where it's all gone!

Sorry to chime in late (we got over 20 inches in the mountains this weekend!), how about "Don't execute any day-to-day SQL manually more than once; plan for reuse by scripting it the first time"? And, with all due respect, how about changing "Do Monitor Your Database" to "Do Monitor Your Database Using Automatically Scheduled Scripts"? Just my $0.02...
