    Well I just met up with a friend last week and went to a bar right near work - the bartenders are all women and they all wear bikini's :) If that's not your thing, I'm sure we can find something else :) Email me offline at jim dot crafton at gmail dot com. ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

      Yeah, I was saying last Friday I need to change my login in name to something feminine. Someone suggested Bubba, but hey! I'm north of the Mason-Dixon line. But now it sucks to know you're all the way in NYC. I was going to send you a cake or something for your help.

        Well, either I'm a girl or the moya got a little crazy at the bris. I've had that before where people question if I'm posing as a girl. what would I gain from it?

        Oyveh! Who knows? People do weird things. I mean who would have thought that wearing jeans that hang halfway off your ass would *still* be a fashion trend among clueless young men 10 years later! I presume that the people who genuinely question whether you're a girl or not are the same ones who got burned on AOL sex chat rooms thinking they were hitting on a hot 25 year old, only to discover it was a 45 year old weirdo. ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire!

          You are too sweet. Just knowing that you even considered sending me a cake suffices as a sign of gratitude. :rose: Josh

            There are sex chat rooms on the Internet? Why didn't anyone tell me? And here I have been spending my time tutoring and helping little old ladies across the street...;P

                Hey there Super Lloyd. Now that your previous message has accumulated 2 votes of 5, I should mention that if you expect CP to keep your moniker intact, you might want to consider demonstrating your "super" powers. Perhaps asking "Which one would you advise" would be more "super" than "Which one would you advice to me?" :-D

                  Instead of a cake, I'd much rather you send me a photo of yourself. I'm always curious what the people I chat with actually look like. That would be great. If you feel comfortable doing it, send the pic to flapplejacks@gmail.com Looking forward to it Lex! Josh

                        Yeah, I know that. But thanks for pointing it out anyways. I feel like I'm in "The Lounge" of a soccer site. I don't understand why all these soccer rants are being posted here, on a software dev site, that's all. :) Adios amigo, josh

                        Turn on your TV - you might notice this little thing called the World Cup going on at the moment. Don't worrry though, it will be over in a couple of weeks and we can get back on-topic and talk about how rubbish Bush is, how not all muslims are terrists, and how oil is the real reason for the war.

                          Being the American which I inevitably am, I cannot understand for one second what on Earth is so damn appealing about soccer. Why do some many people keep posting soccer rants on a web site dedicated to software?! Aren't there soccer (football, whatever) sites to which you can post these rants?

                                Yeah, I played soccer when I was a kid. Never found it to be much fun. Then again, I don't care for sports in general - especially not watching other people play them.

                                  I know the World Cup is underway. I just don't see why folks keep posting about it at CP.

                                    A year or two back it got so bad the cricket posts were banished to the Soapbox. Chris got tired of cleaning the blood spatter off the Lounge.

                                      Yummy. X| The Lounge page should have a filter which optionally removes any posts with words like "football", "soccer", "cricket", etc. That way, the people who don't come to CodeProject to chat about sports won't have to wade their way through those posts.

                                        I've seen lots of posts about football recently. What is this soccer of which you speak?

                                          Being the American which I inevitably am, I cannot understand for one second what on Earth is so damn appealing about soccer. Why do some many people keep posting soccer rants on a web site dedicated to software?! Aren't there soccer (football, whatever) sites to which you can post these rants? Let's get back to business here, people. Software. Software. Software. :doh: Josh

                                          The lounge isn't for software only, but to talk about anything else. A polar bear is a bear whose coordinates has been changed in terms of sine and cosine.
