I wonder if he has ever stepped on a protest-ant.

I told my wife I will get her diamonds.
Nothing would please me more, she said.
Well, ok then.

You know where she keeps them?

Talk about cheap. There's 13 of them in each deck of playing cards.

Actually, a total of 87 per deck.

Ideas for sewing? (7)

THREADS?
I'm not sure though - "ideas" == "threads" seems a bit too tenuous for me so it's probably wrong.

YAUT!
I couldn't figure out a way to work "molecules" in 
The "for sewing" bit is perhaps a bit left-pond, but it does appear in my 1960s COD.

It was a bit of a guess actually based on not ions and obviously notions being ideas

nope, but a good shot. The singular/plural trips it up, though.

That described my first couple of years programming in C#/.NET. After a long history of writing C++/MFC apps it was tough. I was either re-inventing the wheel (there is a prodigious amount of stuff in .NET, even in the 3.5 days), or I was trying to use C++/MFC best practices in C#/.NET/WPF. Ironically, those 'best practices' eventually caused me to buy a .NET memory profiler, stop development for about three months, and rework a metric crap-ton of code.

As an old timer (64), I know that experience provides the ability to spot a mistake when you make it, again.

The birthday card I got my friend a few weeks back summed that up perfectly:
Old Enough to Know Better
Young Enough Not To Care
Stupid Enough To Do It Anyway

That would have been a great card for me this year, as I passed the 0x3C mark.
