It all depends on the experience you want. Apple software tends to be like set of corridors; as long as you are content running down them, you are find. Want to depart from them, you are out of luck. Windows software tends to be like handing someone enough rope to hang themselves and may be even tying the noose. I prefer the latter.

Hi All,
Regulars will know of my trouble over New Year with my Dad and earlier problems that led to the glennPattonPUB nom de code (blame Nagy! I do) it looks like I have a contract starting later this month! So should I change to glennPattonWork again or sound like a hit man with glennPattonContracting ?
|
|
|
|
|
Is glennPattonWhoring taken?
|
|
|
|
|
Contractor, Whoring, same thing we are all tarts at heart!

How about GlennPattonSeamstress?
I wonder how many will get that reference?
|
|

|

Depends. Does he own a mushroom?

Not own, have consumed many...

200 seamstresses. Not a needle between them.
|
|
|
|
|
IIRC, they found one needle.

Two! It was Men At Arms: "A survey by the Ankh-Morpork Guild of Merchants of tradespeople in the dock areas of Morpork found 987 women who gave their profession as “seamstress.” Oh…and two needles."

Umm Patton like the pattern used for clothes making? I believe in over 39 years I have not heard that one (and I have heard most!)
|
|
|
|
|
It's a Pratchett reference to the Guild of Seamstresses (Night watch, but also in Men At Arms)

Ahh the two Pratcetts I have not read they are on my Kindle after John Carters Chronicles of Mars (yeah saw the movie, thought there was the possibility of something, I do knida like HG Wells!)
|
|
|
|
|
Gawd! That movie was... um ... poor.
The books were good when I read them, but that was several decades ago...

I am confused. Will you be working as a hit man?
