Neutering a circus dog makes him a ball-less wonder. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
--Winston Churchill

Not punning, but I always wonder why they say you're having your pet "fixed" when it seems to me you're obviously having it broken. ? ? ? ?
Damn - can't help myself - Eggs-actly! Well, I got over that hump safely enough.

Hi All,
The light on parents has finally dived off the wall. Looking at it the plastic polymer chains broke down with eposure to UV. Also the toilet flush broke over the weekend was fixed using a metal coat hanger and some bad language  ,when I get back to my residence I need to clean the bathroom. Also I need to ask I always though Go! was a play language for teaching rather than steel chewin, hard as nails for industry use, saw my first advert for a Go! programmer today.

Was it a Google programming thing? I seem to remember it being mentioned in the same breath as Python...

Just a thought - many of us do this to pay for food and shelter for ourselves and families. Messing with someone's code (and the possibility of very bad consequences to their career) seems like a rather ill-conceived method for getting a giggle.
Most of me never wants to grow up - I've been rather successful at it, BUT when your holding that first baby appears, your world view has to and will change a great deal.

Good luck posting that into git and keeping your job.
Or don't MacD's allow flippers near the code base?

Code base? Surely, the only base they have is sauce base???

Following my earlier post about quantum entanglement, I thought I'd post about one of my favourite physics books here in Pete's Book Of The Whatever[^].
If you've ever wondered what theoretical physics would be like if explained by Douglas Adams, I can heartily recommend The Universe in Your Hand: A Journey Through Space, Time and Beyond eBook: Christophe Galfard[^]. I didn't find this a quick book to read, not because it was dense or inaccessible; rather I found it took time because the author would present something of such breathtaking and shattering profoundness that I would have to go away and ponder it for a while because it challenged my view of things I thought I already knew. Then, just when you thought you'd got your head round that, he'd go and do the same again. I mean, I had never really appreciated what, fundamentally, magnetism is until I read this; I realised afterwards, just how shallow my A level physics really was. I really do wish I'd gone on to do the degree I really wanted to do, astrophysics.

Well...there is teh old joke:
Which of the following is the most different from the others, and why?
A) A Ph.D. in Mathematical Biology
B) A Ph.D. in Astrophysics
C) A Ph.D. in Statistics
D) A large pepperoni pizza.
Answer: B - the others can each feed a family of four.

I just fired up Skype and I got a message to confirm my identity due to suspicious activity; logging on from Forn Parts.
Okay, great, well done, etc. I've been using Skype for a week here already...

You should have told them the truth . . . that Europe doesn't really matter. They get attention not unsimilar to patting a canine on the head and saying "what a good doggy!".
