    First thing in the morning when I wake-up my breath could kill a horse. Priorities!

    Not sure what you do with a horse in the morning, it wasn't on your list, was it? :)

    I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that.

      In the morning I: 1) Silence alarm clock twice 2) Relieve 3) Brush Teeth 4) Shower 5) Get Dressed 6) Eat Breakfast (no comment about 3 please)) 7) Walk dog 8) Drive to work This morning I switched it up a little and got gas before going to work which is usually an afternoon workflow ... Got a driving award. You see I drove on a road I never take in the morning that looks like a 45 and is really a 35 and well I wasn't driving either.

          lol. depends in fact. First of all, I don't eat in the morning (can't get anything in my throat if I get up too early. Secondly, try drinking coffee after you brushed your teeth X| . but idd, who cares it's not like you have to french kiss a colleague. (or at least you shouldn't ;-))

          There was a time when I did! Although, to be fair, I married her. (I still kiss her, but we no longer work together).

                    That's what she said! :rolleyes: But yeah, can't have breakfast to early, either.

                    Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

                        You are horribly, terribly cruel. I admire that in you.

                        Jon We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. ~ G. Orwell. Soap Box 1.0: the first, the original, reborn troll-less/xml>

                            Most of the time you won't be given a chance by the dog(s) (we have 3 labs): Sandy[^], Tundra[^] and Rosie[^]. You mention the work W.A.L.K and they go bananas, you mention the word shooting or go near a cupboard with cartridges or shotguns and they go ballistic. You pick up the business keys which are next to the car keys and they do nothing, they're fast asleep and you pick up the car keys and then go bananas. They're a part of the family so get treated as such, although because my parents run the business from home the dogs tend to get their big walk in the afternoon. Although they'll go out and check animals on the farm and help mum with feeding them in the morning. If they're lucky they get some night-time rabbit hunting in when it gets dark.

                                Don't need to, they're back in Wales while I'm in London (Uni and all that malarky). But it can be a bit of the time.

                                  In the morning I: 1) Silence alarm clock twice 2) Relieve 3) Brush Teeth 4) Shower 5) Get Dressed 6) Eat Breakfast (no comment about 3 please)) 7) Walk dog 8) Drive to work This morning I switched it up a little and got gas before going to work which is usually an afternoon workflow ... Got a driving award. You see I drove on a road I never take in the morning that looks like a 45 and is really a 35 and well I wasn't driving either.

                                          The trick to even starting the list is having to get up and walk across the bedroom to even turn off the alarm. If I am not fast enough, my wife will start complaining. She, then, has to get up and throw the children out of bed. This leads to the family joke: "Did you wake up grumpy this morning? No, I let my wife wake my teen-aged daughter."
