    Never apologize - it's a sign of weakness. To hell with those thin-skinned pillow-biters. - Me, 10/03/2001

    Perhaps it is a sign of weakness. But sometimes I feel better after apologizing, specially when I feel, there was fault on my part. I'll try and keep that in mind anyway :-)

      Ok I have figured out what is wrong with us malcontent bunch of misfits. You all miss Chris, go on admit it. John posts a whinging post, Michael just tags alone, Nish does his usual, I try and sympathise. If David were here he would be making a Noir version of Silent BOB's movie which results in BOB dying a lonely death, with or without a goat. We have serious Chris deprivation. He will be sorely disapointed in us kids. :-D Well that is my theory anyway regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa "The greatest thing you will ever learn is to love, and be loved in return" - Moulin Rouge "In other words, the developer is dealing with an elephant, the accountant is dealing with a bunny rabbit." by Stan Shannon - 16/10/2001

      Not true. Had my Chris hit while having that coffee with him yesterday. Anyway Chris has been busy lately and not popping up in the Lounge or Forums much. So I don't think I have kind of addiction at all. ;P Michael Martin Pegasystems Pty Ltd Australia martm@pegasystems.com +61 413-004-018 "Don't belong. Never join. Think for yourself.

          > But sometimes I feel better after apologizing, What are you, a girl? Be a man. Stand behind what you say. Deal with the ramifications. I say a lot of stupid stuff (even here), but I never retract anything. I said it - it's out there - I deal with it. I will admit when I'm wrong, but I won't apologize for anything I say. I can get away with it though, because I'm generally considered an asshole. :) Little piece of advice from your Uncle John - being mean and ornery keeps the bozos at a respectable distance, thus making life much more pleasant.

            I was being sarcastic - you have to pay attention to ALL of the threads on CP in which I might have participated in order to understand some of the references (the current poll about XP where Anders says I hate XP for no reason). You haven't offended me. It's called dry humor ("humour" for you Brits). To hell with those thin-skinned pillow-biters. - Me, 10/03/2001

I'll file this under "John's Little Gems of Wisdom." :) Seriously though, there seems to be a ratio between how pissed off you are and how much I enjoy your posts.

                      I just wake up sometimes in a really sour mood. Things that put a burr under my saddle today: - Everybody flailing around over XP - The abuse of the Most Helpful counter - Nish's user ID - The state of the world as a whole - Facing the possibility that I'm simply fed up with the industry as a whole - News media that can't find anything decent to report on There's probably more, but I'm in too bad of a mood to think about it any more.

                        Yup I am from Trivandrum, India. Trivandrum is India's southern most city and is the capital of the state of Kerala. A lot of people think all Indians speak Hindi. Its funny how wrong that can be. Here in Trivandrum the native tongue is 'malayalam'. I know as much hindi as I know greek or spanish. But english is my favorite language. I am a sort of writer too. :-) Nish

                        Nish, I dont mean this offensive, but since you mentioned you are from india and you used to hang out in IRC I'll share a story with you. I am friends with a guy from India (who lives in the US) and we (used to) talk a lot on IRC. His handle was "Dark" and his !setinfo was this: <ChanServ> [Dark] <--- *:--) (I had to add the double nose so it wouldnt be replaced with a smiley) Anyways, we always got a good laugh out of that one. __________________________ do { cout << "I will never use = when I mean == " << endl; } while (i = 1)

                          Trivandrum is India's southern most city ... I thought Kanyakumari was the southernmost city. Trivandrum? I though it was Thiruvananthapuram or some such...
