LOL!
The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.
English doesn't borrow from other languages.
English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

I knew it was only a matter of minutes before that one would come up. Thanks, Mark!

Funny how tories only complain about exorbitant prices and profits when the shoe is on their foot.

Is anyone here signing up for Progvember? The idea, for those who don't know, is to challenge yourself in November to complete a project you've been putting off forever.
http://progvember.com/[^]
Also, what is it with November being the month for weird things? Movember, National Novel Writing Month, now Progvember?

I will try to get to that later.

Just signed up, but can't figure out which one of my billion project ideas to tackle first...

Yes! I am going to finally finish my B33 virtual machine (a follow up to my B32 Virtal Machine[^]). It is so massive now!

My goal for Progvember is to finish debugging and validating my integrated flow network. Once that is done, I can run my tests, draw conclusions and finish writing my dissertation, so I can graduate next year.
Actually the work will likely last into December, since I have to make a business trip to Indonesia. Oh well.

My wife has signed me up. Here's what I'll be doing....
1. Convert small room currently used for storing crap into an office.
2. Cut big hole in family room wall and install 3.5m wide french doors
4. Put new edging along driveway (120m of the stuff)
5. Gut and re-fit pantry
6. Build fecking great deck outside family room so you can walk through the shiny new french doors onto it
7. Reclad the front of the triple garage (the current cladding at one end was smashed when my daughter attempted to reverse her car through it rather than the garage door).
All this MUST be completed by 1 December when her sister comes to visit.

You mean like the project that's been lying stagnant (80% done) for three years?
Or finally restoring the databases that I haven't bothered to deal with for six months?
I also have about two years of data access code changes to merge from various projects.
Actually the first and third of those now rely on the second. 
Or I could do some more reading-up on Java for Android. I bought an "in 24 hours" book on it more than a year ago and I'm on chapter two.

I'm somehow related to Poe, or so the ghoulish familial discussions claim upon.
Does kinda explain my humor a bit...

Marc,
It has been many years since I read that. Thank you for the link.
Several years back I ran into the collected works of Poe at a university book store (NAU. Flagstaff Arizona). I already had the collected works, but this one was different. It was arranged in chronological order, by the earlyest date of the original published manuscript (not later revisions). I was happy to see that two of my favorites (I have many) were his last - "Annabell Lee" (October 1849), and "The Bells" (November, 1849).
If you are interested, the book title is:
"The Unabridged Edgar Allan Poe"
ISBN 0-89471-233-0.
Tam Mossman wrote the introduction.
The book may be obtained directly from the publishers at:
Running Press
Book Publishers
123 South Twenty Second Street
Philadelphia Pennsylvania 19103-4399
The cover page also lists Running Press as in both Philadelphia and London

That must be really neat to see the progression of his work.
Thanks for the book info - I'll take a look at it.
I'm planning on reading The Black Cat to my gf tonight as her Halloween treat, haha.

Marc,
I'm glad you liked the info. Good luck trying to get the book. I must mention that I bought this book sometime around 2007. It should still be available, but it appears to be an educational text book, and you know those things get changed - "Publish or perish!"
Dave.

I promised myself I'd quote Poe nevermode.
