    Random Silliness...

    Recently I have been noticing a number of typo's in MY posts. Many of these are a "missing 'e'". I dont know if this is hardware (keyboard) or user...but to compensate....

    Please don't get me started about my previous keyboard with the numb space bar... (Or emails from people who seem to have their shift key stuck).

    --- change of focus ---

    Cat lovers are bad programmers...

    Proof:
    1) Some birds eat bugs
    2) Some cats kill birds
    3) Good programmers hate bugs
    4) Having a cat may increase the number of bugs

    QED!!!!!

    I took some insecticid pills today before work, I hope this will make my code bug free. I wish these pills would not be so bitter tho.

    Re: Random Silliness...

    I've worked with several dog and cat rescue organizations over the years. Yesterday I was driving along and I came upon a novel variant. I saw a panel truck with Forklift Rescue written on the side of it. My mind was turned to pudding as I considered the repercussions of this.

    Instead of fostering dogs and cats, I'm going to start fostering fork lifts. Finding homes for cats is a always a challenge but finding homes for abandoned and abused fork lifts? That kicks it up to the next level!

    I'll be accepting money for our fork lift sterilizaton fund. We will be out there on the streets having stray fork lifts spayed and neutered. We have to stop these fork lifts from reproducing. There is nothing so tragic as an unwanted fork lift.

    Also, I would like to put in a few good words for the SPCFL (The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Fork Lifts). These people do an enormous service to society and seldom get the recognition they deserve.

    We now return you to your regularly scheduled program....

    Near. Not in.

    Back in the mid 1980's I lived in Warren for 3 years.

    Maybe you have me confused with Eminem . He grew up in Warren.

    No, I am not the real Slim Shady....

    Actually I pinned it down because of ForkLift Rescue. I have relatives (wife's side) who are scattered throughout Wisconson, primarily in the Eua Clair, and Altoona areas..

    A few of them would involve a ForkLift if a rescue was needed [but tell my wife I said that].

    For information on the company.
