A kit car that may look old and beaten up, and then turns out to be an alien transforming robot.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Pascal - A collectors car :-\

[OriginalGriff]

COBOL: Pony and trap.
FORTRAN: Coach and four.

VB: Engine from a big rig, sawn in half and on the roof;
Chassis stolen from a Ford Fiesta;
1 wheel & tire from a Fiesta, one from a Ferrari, one from tractor, and the last one waiting for Phase Two development (Currently in Phase 6).
Doors, windows, hood, trunk, exhaust: removed for performance.
All held together with spit, baling wire, and huge amounts of still wet concrete.

Not because of the language (though that's revolting enough: On Error Resume Next ensures that) but the users who think they are developers ...
