Jeeze! Great one! Biggest laugh I've had this week!* Anyone who can read out loud -- and properly pronounce -- a fiftieth the perl I've had to try to make head and tail of is a better man than I, Gunga Din! * Pay no attention to the fact that it's only Tuesday behind the curtain
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

I once shared a cube with 3 other programmers. My first day one emailed me and said if I had any questions don't hesitate to ask. I replied back and said I would give them a jingle if I did. Programmers don't talk to people, why would we talk to an inanimate object? Besides I don't think I want my laptop typing in the words I say when my code doesn't work the way I want it to. Maybe I'm just old school introvert.
