A blonde walks by a travel agency and notices a sign in the window, "Cruise Special -- $99!".
She goes inside, lays her money on the counter and says, "I'd like the $99 cruise special, please."
The agent grabs her, drags her into the back room, ties her to a large inner tube, then drags her out the back door and downhill to the river, where he pushes her in and sends her floating.
A second blonde comes by a few minutes later, sees the sign, goes inside, lays her money on the counter, and asks for the $99 special. She too is tied to an inner tube and sent floating down the river.
Drifting into stronger current, she eventually catches up with the first blonde. They float side by side for a while before the first blonde asks, "Do they serve refreshments on this cruise?
The second blonde replies, " They didn't last year."

Oh dear...
Try these: Some may have been posted here before:
A man walked into a sports bar around 9:58 PM. He sat down next to this blonde at the bar and looked up at the TV over the bar. The 10:00 o'clock news was on covering a story about a man preparing to jump off the ledge of a ten story building.
The blonde looked at him and says, "Do you think he will jump?"
Joe said, "You know, I bet he will."
The blonde replied, "Well, I bet he won't."
Joe placed $20 dollars on the bar and said, "You're on!"
Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the man on the ledge did a swan dive off of the building, falling to his death.
The blonde was very upset but...a bet's a bet.
Joe was honest "I can't take your money, I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and knew he would jump."
The blonde nodded her head, "I did too, but I didn't think he'd do it again."
Becky and Sally Ann were two blondes doing carpentry work on a house.
Becky, who was nailing down siding would reach into her nail pouch, pull out a nail and either toss it over her shoulder or nail it in.
Sally Ann, figuring this was worth looking into, asked, "Why are you throwing those nails away?"
Becky explained, "When I pull a nail out of my pouch, half of them have the head on the wrong end and I throw them away."
Sally Ann sighed and shook her head, "Becky, those nails aren't defective! They're for the other side of the house!"

A blonde goes into work one morning crying her eyes out. Her boss, concerned about his employee's well being, asks sympathetically, "What's the matter?"
The blonde replies, "Early this morning I got a phone call saying that my mother had passed away."
"I'm terribly sorry to hear that. Why don't you go home for the day... we aren't terribly busy. Just take the day off to relax and rest."
The blonde very calmly explains, "No, I'd be better off here. I need to keep my mind off it and I have the best chance of doing that here."
The boss agrees and allows the blonde to work as usual. "If you need anything, just let me know," he says.
A few hours pass and the boss decides to check on the blonde. He looks out over his office and sees the blonde crying hysterically. He rushes out to her, and asks, "Are you going to be okay? Is there anything I can do to help?"
"No," replies the blonde, "I just got a call from my sister, and she said that HER mom died too!"

A blonde man is in the bathroom and his wife shouts: "Did you find the shampoo?" He answers, "Yes, but I'm not sure what to do. It says it's for dry hair, and I've just wet mine."
A blonde man goes to the vet with his goldfish. "I think it's got epilepsy," he tells the vet. The vet takes a look and says, "It seems calm enough to me." The blonde man says, "Wait, I haven't taken him out of the bowl yet."
A blonde man spies a letter lying on his doormat. It says on the envelope "DO NOT BEND". He spends the next 2 hours trying to figure out how to pick it up.
A blonde man shouts frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart!" "Is this her first child?" asks the doctor. "No!" he shouts, "this is her husband!"
A friend told the blonde man: "Christmas is on a Friday this year." The blonde man said, "Let's hope it's not the 13th."
Two blonde men find three grenades, and they decide to take them to a police station. One asks: "What if one explodes before we get there?" The other says: "We'll lie and say we only found two."
A woman phoned her male blonde neighbor and said: "Close your curtains the next time you and your wife are going at it. The whole street was watching and laughing at you yesterday." To which the blonde man replied: "Well the joke's on all of you because I wasn't home yesterday."

Auntie reports[^] on this Bitcoin hack. The sentence "Silk Road 2 is known for selling drugs and other illegal items" caught my eye. One criminal organisation has been milked by another; honour among thieves.
Bitcoins are to piles of money what farts are to piles of shite. 
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

As I understood it's not problem with Bitcoin protocol itself, but with Silk Road's software running on top of it. So the admins just shifting the blame. It's like blaming US dollar when someone robs a bank.

So when was the last time you said something like "thanks god it was just a crap, not a fart"?
Anyways, much better news is that Brazzers will start accepting Bitcoins, so I guess its future is secure, at least for now

I thought I had implemented MVVM. Then I read your article which states most people "think" they implemented MVVM. In reality, they did not. Thank you. 
No, it was a decent read. I still want real layman basics though. I could not find them here at CP.

Can you link the particualr article? I'd like to read it (cause I think I've been implementing MVVM and would like to be sure!) and couldn't find the right one.

I think I read most of Sacha's stuff ages ago when I started looking at MVVM - it was certainly most helpful - but I;m interested in what you think you had that wasn't MVVM?

Well, I saw a couple of things. I was still doing it with kind of MVP/MVC mindset. Another thing I did was I was sending across a control to view model (just the PasswordBox) and was struggling with showing some dialogs and reporting progress on screen.
Remember, I am totally new to WPF World. I just thought I had implemented MVVM[^]. A little reading on web suggested I have probably done it. The solution structure was not like MVVM but functionally, I appeared to be one.

OK - thanks.
When I started looking at MVVM I was new to WPF too - and read tons, but really had to do some hands on development for it all to gel.
I ended up not using any framework, but rolling my own, which is sort of am M-V-VM-C .
I wrote some articles about it if you are interested - see my sig.
