I have a folder with files that contain various snippets.
I really need a better way to do this, and I think I am going to build my own.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I remember a discussion going on about snippets and how to organize them.
That was a long time ago, but you can try the CP search. Could have been anywhere though. I'd try the articles first and then go for more general messages.
Here's an article Richard wrote: Code Snippet Manager[^]
That might have been as a result of said discussion, but I'm to busy to research that now.
Cheers!

If you ever want to ship something outside of the First World, good luck!
I have to get a windscreen out to Mrs Wife for the car. I am trying to find a shipper/courier to take it; quotes are around £500-£1,000.
I think I'll call BA and see if I can take it as check-in luggage. It'll be a damned sight cheaper to fly out for the weekend with the bonus of seeing the girls!

Get her to get Amazon Prime and the delivery is free! 
Or...buy a whole car and drive it out there...

Amazon don't deliver.
DHL say it's too big.
Parcelforce won't collect.
BA don't answer the phone.

She just needs to find someone to go out in the dead of night, find a same-model car, and. . .

Grand idea except there are only 4 of them in the country. Two of the other three are owned by friends and the fourth is in the south, about 1,000km away.

Since it's going outside the first world, you can probably get by with the repair using plastic wrap.

Can somebody explain to me what the new shipping method is at Amazon. I ordered a book today and just got the notification that it Shipped. It appears to be shipping from inside the US to a US address. Supposed to arrive on Feb 7 (three weeks and a day). Did the US Post office actually implement snail mail?

If you have an internet-enabled 3D printer then just make sure it is turned on and connected. Your book will start printing shortly.

It's the new Amazon Drone Delivery service.
It has to stop every hour for a recharge, which takes 12 hours...

Sounds to me like the USPS shipping times have vastly improved.

Well, it looks fairly good: here shipments get buried in the local post offices.

I know what you mean. The Israeli postal (dis)service has become so disorganized that Amazon only ships to Israel via other couriers nowadays. This increases the cost significantly, but at least stuff arrives.
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.

Same in the UK.. only use Royal Mail if you don't want your item delivered 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

Thank you for the update. I'll be sure to watch for it.
Next time, just email me directly. No need to tell everyone else.

I just read an article here on CP where the author says "For many years I've been building a library themed "things that should be built into the .NET framework, but aren’t"."
I too have been compiling things I use regularly into my own framework. Everything from logging, registry stuff, app security, WPF things, Data related stuff, ZIP, messaging, etc.). In my WPF library I even subclassed the standad WPF controls and then in my WPF apps I use my version of the controls.
For the most part, when I find myself using code repeatedly I start thinking about where in my framework to put it so that I can re-use it again later.
So I'm curious... Do you do this? Create a library/framework of reusable code? If you, how do you put it all together? If not, how do you handle using/reusing common code?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.

We're embarking on a full rewrite in part because lots of what we've done over the years has finally been implemented in the BCL. Though not as well as we did it, natch'

So if the BCL now contains a function that you created in the past do you then go back & refactor to use the BCL version?
