    There was this great TV quiz show. There were two finalists who had to compete against each other - a priest and a student. To find out the winners of all, both had to recite a fictitious quatrain. The funnier of the two would win. But it should not be any quatrain. It should in any event contain the name of the oasis town in Mali - Timbuktu. Well, both thought and created their version, and following the old rule, age before beauty is, the priest was allowed to begin. The auditorium was very quiet and tense. A breathtaking moment. The priest took a deep breath, stretched, stood still and began to recite his verse. "I was a priest for all my life, - I had no children and no wife. - I read my bible, through and through - on my way to Timbuktu." Thunderous applause. Enthusiasm. Each was immediately clear that the priest will emerge victorious from this contest. But what the regulations provided for, the student could recite his version of the rhyme as well. He was very relaxed and just started. "Tim and I to Brisbane went - we met 3 girls, quite cheap to rent. - But they were three and we just two - so I booked one and Tim booked two." Just found this. The student gets my vote! :laugh:

    It's an OO world.

    public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }
