title: Using Node.js (Express) and mySQL to INSERT for a TIMESTAMP?
body: <p>Just trying to do some simple messaging here:</p>
  
  <pre><code>   var post = {
          sender_username : sender_username,
          recipient_username : recipient_username, 
          message_no : 1,
          content : content, 
          time : ***CURRENT TIMESTAMP***, 
          read : 0
      };
  
      connection.query('INSERT INTO message SET ?', post, function(err, result) {
          if (err) {
              res.send(err);
          }
          else {
              res.send(post); 
          }
      });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What's the simplest way to stick the date and time in there that is valid for the TIMESTAMP type?</p>
