    Oh okay. That may be right. I remember a movie called Nagina (means female snake woman) from when I was very young. So yeah, it's probably naga for male and nagina for female. How do you know Hindi anyway?

      I have no idea. I know bits of a huge range of relatively pointless subjects - Herself won't play "Trivial Pursuits" against me any more! :laugh:

        LOL, nice skill to have :-) Knowing multiple languages, even minimally, is also a sign of intelligence - but then with you, that was never in question I suppose.

          Nah...Nagy would throw a null reference exception at the thought of not drinking...

          I figure it would look more like this:

          RUN "\LifeChoices\ChooseNotToDrink.exe" ERROR FileNotFound

          if (Object.DividedByZero == true) { Universe.Implode(); } Meus ratio ex fortis machina. Simplicitatis de formae ac munus. -Foothill, 2016

            Possibly more like your sig:

            if (numberOfGinsInFutureLife == 0) { Nagy.Universe.Implode(); }

                  After years of being spurned and abused by the night-owls, the morning people have at last banded together to "re-educate" those who avert their eyes from the sunrise!

                    I suspect it's just that I "need" 5 or 6 hours, but when I drank I needed a whole lot more to get some (if not all) of the alcohol out of my system before I could get "real" sleep.

                    More likely because you're getting older. The need for sleep tends to decrease the older you get (or so is my understanding - it hasn't happened to me yet! :~)

                      I just realized something - I believe nagy actually means snake in Hindi and Urdu. Hindi speakers can confirm this or correct me :-)

                            Not drinking is like missing a core part of your life. I enjoy drinking as much as writing codes :java:
