You can't forget how to do your job if you never knew how to do it in the first place

then just invent something to do. as long as you look busy and look like you know what you're doing others will leave you alone.
eventually someone will as "how is X going?"
ahh, now you remember ...why you were so happy when you went on vacation
and often very next thing is figure it's a good time to dust off the resume.

The fun thing is I am working on multiple projects and they released major updates last week and my inbox was flooded with gazillion of emails and I don't know where to start. 
P.S: now I'm back on track!

I came back to work today to find that my PC had crashed during Chrimbo-limbo and that I had forgotten my password. A great start to the day

My favorite was when I had just gotten hired and then my direct report/supervisor went on an extended vacation (2 weeks) out of state. I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing for two weeks and neither did anyone else.
The dotcom days were something else.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Nope. It works.

Actually, you are correct. I just found out the site is being blocked by my work.

Nice and clean saxophone sound, indeed. Didn't knew him.
I especially like saxophone and clarinet players; my personal favourites are John Coltrane, James Carter, Jan Garbarek, Branford Marsalis.
On another note, may I propose Aldo Romano, Louis Sclavis, Henri Texier[^]?

Saw a short movie about Commodore history and finally understood why we had that much 4/Plus computers in schools...
When 4/Plus failed in the USA and most of Europe, Commodore sold it with a large discount to the communist block, where Hungary was the main buyer (there was no computer manufacturing of any kind there)... They actually created a special character ROM to include special letters for the Hungarian ABC...
While I already had my C64 at home, I remember classmates (some of them way better than me) who had no access to computer anywhere else but at school... so it was a good deal for us...

Ah, the C=+4. I never had a C=64, and when the hype grew decided to leap one step ahead. Boy was I mistaken. I did have some games which couldn't run on the C=64 because they required too much memory (e. g. some Infocom text adventures), but other than that I felt cheated, at least initially.
On the plus side, when the C=+4 and it's smaller companion, the C=16 failed at the market, I could get quite a few games at a considerable discount.
I even had a documented ROM listing (a book with a few hundred pages, no more), including detailed explanations of the registers and their effects. Managed to program some soft-scrolling techniques too, a mandelbrot fractal program with animated color table, and a rotating Octahedron animation. Probably could have done most of that on the C=64 too, but the bank-switching and increased RAM was quite helpful.
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

I remember seeing a Plus/4 exactly once in my life, and being rather jealous of the slicker case and cursor keys that made a lot more sense than my 64's.
In the end, it's just as well I stuck with it.
Speaking which...I'll have to check whether this is available yet in Canada...

He asks me "Where are we going?"
I answer "To pick up our new glasses from the optometrist."
"Then what?"
"We'll see..."

... so he's quite small then.
