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.

So... you'd be a politician? Every 3 or 4 months you'd have the opportunity to reply, truthfully, that you're full of it?

No way. I find it hard enough keeping my phone charged up. I'm forever losing the charger.
(Besides, I like food too much, and as for the consequences of food, I'd also be losing out on prime reading time)

Apologies for the lack of Friday's clue which was due to a near-death experience involving a particularly savage bout of man-flu.

Most of us have already let you off.
But Griff, I'm not so sure.

Yeah - no problem. We all get sick, and the cold that was going round at the end of last year is a killer!

All I can say is that there was a long, long chat with the Big Guy in the Sky followed by the best comeback since Lazarus. It was touch-and-go there for a while.

No, it felt that way, but I pulled through heroically

Emails?! I have a bug report from 2003... It is about IE5 rendering wrongly some part of a page... Never fixed it as IE6 already was there...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Now that I think of it I'm the opposite of that
May be some kind of OCD but I hate to have any unread emails in my inbox.
There was a time when I deleted all emails I replied to so that my inbox was empty. Doesn't work anymore because I found out that some emails have to be preserved to cover my ass in certain situations.

Pphhht! I'm totally on top of my emails. My backlog is caught all the way up to 2010.
(No, I'm not actually joking

Has anyone noticed in the last few years that it has become utter crap?
It ignores anything after the first two words, at best, and gives you the most popular links with those few words in them.
Time to ditch it I think, its become useless.

No I haven't noticed any change. I tried to Google: elephant sheep codeproject
Works like a charm!
... such stuff as dreams are made on
|
|
|
|
|
Try: "elephant sheep site:codeproject.com" it works even better!

You are really surprised that Google (or any other company that does something in the internet) serves its own good and not yours?

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
