you should count your blessings. When CG is null, all of the following will no longer work as before:
CG.SendWrongStuff();
CG.CancelFlight();
CG.DontCallBack();
CG.SendWrongInvoice();
CG.CutElectricity();
CG.ChangeSubscriptionData();
CG.DeliverParcelLate();
CG.DemolishRoof();
CG.InfestWithRodents();
CG.ConnectAtRandom();OTOH you may end up pretty bored, your next post could well be: why being NULL sucks: because nothing happens anymore :)

I got the same email yesterday, except that it said "Dear Peter" and the ridiculous query strings were different. Straight to the junk folder. Even if it is legit, I don't give a flying copulation for whatever their "membership" entails. Having said that, plain text is probably the better option for junk mail - less chance of embedded nasties.

ROTFL !!! I don't believe my roof has ever been demolished. Oh wait - yes, that did happen, a little. A truck took out the power line and ripped a bit off my roof. The rodent infestation is current, although not as bad as the plague we had a few years ago.

I was wondering, which language converts
[null].ToString()/Convert.ToString([null])to "NULL", instead of "" or null exception. must be custom stuff like try...catch block. :-D (sorry, cant think of anything except C#) -

Well, in the end even being assimilated by the Borg is just as in any other place. You must start out at the bottom and slowly crawl up the ladder again. At the moment you are NULL, but if you do good work you will be promoted to 35.626.646.636.635.673 of 35.626.646.636.635.673 in no time. Resistance is futile.
A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.
