Work on getting tables created in SQL Server. I decided to find an automated way to do it instead of creating tables manually. This isn't easy as it's been 2 hours working on this. 

1. Download SSMA for Access 6.0.0.exe
2. Download and install Sql server express 2014 
1. I do the above but I don't see how to run sql server express or do anything.
3. Annoyance: I install the MSI in step 2 but don't know what to do next
4. SFA (So Fucken Annoying) trying to install .net Framework
5. Computer acting strange

WOAD - Wisdom of a Dad

Proofread book plan. This seems to be a daunting task.

My writing needs improvement.

I want to proofread the book and turn it into a book on tape.

Idea

Process to create a book using FTAD method

Terrorism and Random Murders

How big of a problem is this vs. other problems.

Random killing by people instead of lightning, animals, accidents. It's preventable? 

Dogs

Do dogs get mosquito bites? Yes and can get Heartworm from them.

Problems/Ideas

I'm trying to upgrade my Microsoft Access DB to SQL Server and it's a PITA (Pain in the Ass). Have a method to do this easily. Too many decisions, perquisites. Just have an install button and check whatever is needed then allow to install by default.

Book

The $100 Startup. 

I read this book awhile ago and now to look at my highlights and implement what the author says. I read a lot of nonfiction books but don't take enough action. 

This is a great title. It tells me that for $100 I can start a business. 

Maybe I could learn something from the author as he wrote a book and what questions would I ask him
