                    At one company I worked at the technical directory formed a 'break away' software company, to provide code for the parent company, and took some of us software guys with him. It was to be based in Tamworth, England. I suggested calling it Software House In Tamworth, for some reaso he did not like the name!

                                        The car Honda Fitta gives me more than a chuckle when I'm feeling juvenile. Fitta is a vulgar name for vgania in Swedish. :rolleyes: [edit]Needless to say, the car model was quickly renamed to Honda Jazz[/edit] -- Ich bin der böse Mann von Schweden.

                                          I used to work for a department in a government agency. The department I worked in was the Scottish Homes Information Technology department.


                                          "You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want." --Zig Ziglar "On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." --Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
