      How about "Where do you want to go today?" Well, I thought I'd go swimming thank you, and I really doubt you can help there.

        :laugh: I realized immediately after posting that I missed the spirit of the board. But along the same lines, the only word (which like DotNet isn't even (necessarily) a buzzword) that has affected my life is JAVA. When JAVA was coming around it was everywhere, and I was still coding in the corporate world. Customers, managers... all demanded JAVA.  I asked "for what?" - They answered "I don't care, as long as we have Java". Those companies are gone....All because of a BUZZWORD. I tried, I really did....they wouldn't listen... Hmm maybe I need therapy... :) Cheers! Mark *edit* "Where do you want to go today?" was a great one!  I had a different answer for that every time I heard it LOL.
