The problem with quotes on the internet is that you can never tell if they're genuine

I do not call them, they come at me by themselves.

Why do you feel the need to label them, they're all just humans like you and me*
*I'll admit I'm making an assumption about you.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

It depends on the culture of where you are, and I don't mean the country, but the organisation or audience you are talking to.
Some women will get insulted if you call them girls, females sounds very awkward to me (partly because of an excellent sitcom called Friday Night Dinner in which the father asks his son if there are any females in his life), some women do not like the word women because they see it as 'of men'.
It also depends on how formal the situation you are in.
I think it also needs to fit what you call the men.
Men and women.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Lads and lasses.
Boys and girls.
Vicars and tarts.
Bros and hos.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

We've had more than that. Unfortunately, they came and went, hopefully, to better things.

What do you call the men? Males? Boys? Gentlemen?
Stick with "women".

Don't use:
Broads
Dames
Hens
Dolls
Gals
Wenches
How come I know more ways NOT to use than ways to use? I erased several before I hit Post Message.

So now that my contract abruptly ended a week ago, I'm now searching for work again.
I have a phone interview tomorrow and I feel hopeful.
So now that I have some free time, I'm keeping busy with my daily agenda:
- Job Hunt
- Work on [product] (I'm working on a software product for market)
- Brush up on WCF.
- Learn Android
- Learn Entity Framework
- Write some more of my book.
- Call of Duty.
[REVISED AGENDA]
1. Job Hunt
2. Work on [product] (I'm working on a software product for market)
3. Brush up on WCF.
4. Learn Android
5. Learn Entity Framework
6. Write some more of my book.
7. Call of Duty.

WCF? Perhaps ASP .NET MVC would be a better avenue?

Why?
I can see uses for both. I've done both WCF and ASP.Net Web Services, but there are some things in WCF I need to improve my knowledge of.

From what I've seen, more dev positions seem to require experience in ASP .NET MVC than WCF. Not that there's anything wrong with learning more about it.

That depends on the positions you're going after. I'm not a Web Developer. I do WPF. Most corporate environments I've seen use WCF.

Funny how you start out with good intentions and some where along the line you say screw it!

I want nothing to do with any game related to Steam.

I used to say the same thing. Because seriously, if my purchase can be taken away from me at any time, for no reason, who wants to buy into a system like that?
But then I was convinced by a superbly sound argument for steam. Treat it like a rental. If you never pay retail for a game, it doesn't matter all that much if it disappears into the ether. I haven't paid more than $3 for a game on steam since I started using it.
There are other arguments against steam (which you may have) but cost vs 'ownership' was the big one for me.

Mmm... so Call of Duty is good then?
I have modern warfare, but only played the campaign.... Might give it a go! ^^
Is there a beginner online mode! I even forgot how to play since I played the campaign!

Develop your own Call of Duty for multiplayer mode using unity & web sockets.
Advantages:
1. You'll stay in touch with code
2. You'll learn Unity
3. You'll get - Fun on the job
4. You'll learn new techniques of networking instead of raising WCF from the tomb.
