The telephone keeps ringing from ing scammers
Tried to Log in to Yahoo and they suddenly needed to verify me, emailed me a 4-char key, and then promptly told me (seconds after I logged in) that I was away too long and had to ing log in again. And more. It just keeps coming without letup.
"What the world needs now" is not "love sweet love" but some serious fixing.
So tell me - now that I've just about had enough - where do I find a good course in learning how to effectively "Go Postal" .

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

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.

I used to have a customer who would fly off the handle over the smallest things. I referred to him as being a two cent stamp short of going postal.

I was answering a Q&A and happened to look at the days rankings. I was on the top - that means even ahead of OG and the other hogs stalwarts of the Q&A scene.
Naturally, it won't last long but, like a shooting star, a sight to behold.

I was once on top of the daily and monthly ranks for about three days. I took screenshots and everything, for posterity of course.
Key point there : once.

My son sent me a link to a music theory video What Makes this Song Great? Ep.63 RUSH (#2). Now I'm jamming to Moving Pictures!

IMHO, Moving Pictures is one of their best. 'The Camera Eye' and 'Witch Hunt' are the epics that nobody ever mentions. Cover to cover, a great album.
Did you know that the cover art illustrates 3 different meanings of the title? Very clever!

Very true! I'd also add 'Vital Signs' to that list. One of my first concerts, great band.

What a silly question, when the answer is right there at the very end of the title.

I crave weird things when I am on a coding jag. A lot of times heavy on grains or starch, sometimes fish or peanuts, and sugar. Anything I can readily metabolize that my brain tends to like, I think.
Do you get weird code related food cravings?
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.

beer or similar: enough of it and any code cravings are definitely cured.
