Well done, Sir ! Got my vote.
At the kind of companies I worked for (Cricket, Adobe, AutoDesk) long ago, you might have heard something like this:
The Man: "look this is going to be insanely great: we just heard that contractor whose name we never mention is going to offer a house with a spiral slide from the master-bedroom on the top-floor down into a sunken Jacuzzi on the lower-level deck extension. now, I know we could do one better than that ... and ..."
cheers, Bill

As far as I'm concerned, the word means: ‘I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.’” Vincent Van Gogh

Adobe I can imagine (presumably they also sent a builder around every couple of weeks to perform some maintenance work that involved you not being able to use the house for a while, and the only noticeable difference is that the rooms appeared to be slightly smaller?
AutoDesk, though, surprises me (and not only because they once gave me a free copy of 3D Studio!) I'd always thought of them as being the innovators.

Anybody realise the blond guy seems gay? The way he blushes and smiles makes me think he might be Michael Jackson in disguise... Give me an idea what he might be holding in his left hand

I no longer have the desire to fly!
As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

I just wrote the following TypeScript statement
var questions = this.forms.forms.selectItem()
.data.Groups().enumerable()
.where(x => x.current.GroupType() === Server.GroupType.Normal)
.selectMany(x => x.data.Questions())
.distinct(x => x.current.ID())
.array();
And I just thought to myself, "How lucky I use TypeScript instead of JavaScript"!
I can only imagine how hard it will be to write such a statement correctly without good intellisense in JavaScript.
Not too mention how some zealous programmer might unknowingly break it by refactoring something somewhere (else)...
As a side note, I got a nice Enumerable class in my TS utilities now!
Wondering what to do... can't just drop it on CP (without explanation), nor do I feel like creating CodePLex project for it, what to do, what to do?!

There is a real different?

I mean from this to that there are 17 dots.

TypeScript will eliminate those!
