I'm a bit sad that Google's doodle to celebrate the occassion used a generic looking PC of the time for the image, rather than the NeXT computer on which it was developed.

Do not trust farts anymore WWW. This will be helpful after a few decades but I suggest start early.

Clearly thought up by some unmarried young guys just getting started in their marketing careers.
Reality is, no matter how high you let her set the thermostat, it's never warm enough for the wife.

IN 1959 we moved to Phoenix and along the way I remember there was a billboard that had a picture of a teenage girl lying on the floor with her feet up on the bed on the phone and it read "Buy a ding-a-ling for your ding-a-ling". All these years later and I still remember that billboard!
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too!

No idea why you're tagging Australia. Both the billboards are from the wintry ol USA.

The poor little desert flowers in Texas that die when the temperature drops below 20 C? They packed themselves up as if they were going on a polar expedition and while I thought it was spring and ran around in shorts and a t-shirt.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

There was one I remember, it had "S3X" written in a large, bold font at the top and then "Now that we have your attention, eat at Subway to your left".
You have just been Sharapova'd.

S3X ... subway, talk about killing the mood.

An air conditoner company in the Killeen (Texas) area had their vans emblazoned with a hot woman (in both senses of the word), with something along the lines of "Your wife is hot. Call 254-555-1212".

Does anyone still use flow charts to plan code? I do and have been using clunky legacy software. Any recommendations for best of breed (preferably near to free)?

I haven't for many years. I prefer pseudo code.

Nope.
I don't know what happened to the DOS-based flow chart program I used around 1990 and I'm unsure where my templates are.
I do occasionally use Word for simple diagrams.
Edit: I think this is the software, but I can't find the disks and documentation.
As I recall, the documentation had a fairly interesting index style.

I do, but I draw them on paper. I haven't found anything that doesn't take too much effort to use that it distracts me from the logic I'm trying to build.
After I've wrapped my own head around the problem I usually just throw them away, but occasionally if some snipped of the flowchart needs to go into documentation (which noone reads anyway) then I'll use GraphViz[^]. It's got a pretty steep learning curve since it's effectively just a declarative programming language, but I feel like it's less time consuming than Visio.
