I have 4x6 cards that I write the postgresql way of doing what I use to do
with MySQL so that I can easily reference them when I need to.

Should I sit down and read a book and go through the exercises?
Yes. But I need to get stuff done now, and the cheat sheets I make for
myself let me do just that.

I am not a DBA - I am not even a web developer.
I do both because I can't afford to hire them, and when I have used stuff
created by them, very frequently their code is clearly crap and insecure
and even I can see that, so unless I really want to pay the big bucks,
it's better for me to do it myself and cheat sheets really help.

Could you share them ? Maybe put them up on the Postgres wiki.
The other similar resource that I see is : http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Converting_MySQL_to_PostgreSQL
