This haiku is about a life a hiking and biking and almost no traffic. It also mentions something about a set of Lync Server cmdlets you'll never, ever want to use.

There are no eyelashes on the CsOutboundTranslationRule cmdlets, but it turns out they don't really need them. Your car, however, might be another story.

At Microsoft we spend a lot of time talking about herding cats. It turns out that border collies must be a lot smarter than Microsoft employees, because they herd sheep, which makes much more sense than herding cats. On the other hand, border collies don't know a lot about managing audio conferencing providers with Lync Server, whereas Microsoft employees...wait, never mind.

In case you're wondering, the author of this haiku did not attempt to ride up the 9400 foot mountain. He did, however, run the Lync Server CsDatabase commands.

Hey, we're all busy. With Tweets and Facebook postings and RSS feeds all flying around everywhere, you're bound to miss something here and there. So we've provided a handy wrap-up of everything that happened at the Lync Server PowerShell blog in August 2011. We like to think you wouldn't want this to be one of the things you missed. (You don't need to take the time to tell us if we're mistaken, we know you're busy.)
