    Hearts don't show in my emoticon list, so I was going with what I had!

    Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

      You're lucky, I don't have neither hearts nor kegs. A life without love and alcohol (or at least one of the two) is an empty life :D

            Is that one of those zen koans? Feels like I should know more about the cosmos if I only knew the relationship between bulls and bunnies.

              CodeProject has always been and, I believe, was always intended to be a Microsoft-oriented site. Rumor has it that several of the early Microsoft top management folks slept with Bob before they discovered pretty girls. Once they were billionaires they had more options, of course. Other technologies are welcome, but we don't see them very often.

              Will Rogers never met me.

                Has Microsoft bought a share of CodeProject? All the Daily News are Microsoft this, Microsoft that! .NET this, .NET that! :java:

                .NET's kinda been big in the news lately. But no, Microsoft haven't bought a share but if they have a spare squillion lying around then I'm happy to negotiate from our tax-friendly hollowed-out-volcano island HQ.

                    Bad news, Chris; when he's drunk, Bob talks, and he's a cheap date. All those times you've been binging with the rodents in the server vault, Bob's been skipping over to Bullhead City for a little jet ski action and cheap beer. Like I said, he talks... I don't, of course, but I take notes... :rolleyes:

                      If they ever do buy into the Project, don't forget that you promised, years ago, that the first 5,000 members would get Preferred Voting shares, and the rest mere non-voting Common stock. Or warrants to be granted at our whim...:cool:
