    I was in the public toilets and had just sat down, a voice from the next cubicle said "Hi, how are you?" Embarrassed, I said, "I'm doing fine". The voice said "So what are you up to?" I said, "Just doing the same as you, sitting here." From next door, "Can I come over?" Annoyed, I said "I'm rather busy right now". The voice said, "Listen, i will have to call you back, there's an idiot next door, answering all my questions"

    Programming is a race between programmers trying to build bigger and better idiot proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots, so far... the universe is winning. Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow. You can't scare me, I have children.

                      When those Bluetooth ear pieces first came out I found myself in two conversations that I wasn't a part of. :doh: Although the look of irritation and fearful stress together on a person’s face is kind of funny to see when they realize you're answering their questions. :-D

                      It was broke, so I fixed it.
