Postcards from the Bleeding Edge

  Fucking blogger...

I am on about my 9th lost post here... I remember when I used to have save things 3 times, on 3 different tapes, on the CBM PET in order to be absolutely sure that a few hundred bytes were REALLY saved... 25 years later, things are worse. I have had it with blogger right now. I am moving off to my own site in about a week.

Before I give up here's a bit that I was trying to comment on from MichaelA Cooper

I was writing the other day about this. I discovered something (watching firefly, actually) about myself that really rang true.

As a coder, as a computer guy for those stinking 25 years - I have been in the sorry position of a prostitute that loved sex.

"Would you do that for 200 dollars?"
YESS!
"Would you do that for 150 dollars?"
YESS!
"Would you do that for 75 dollars?"
YESS!
"Would you do it for free?"
YESS!
"Would you do it for stock options?"
YESS!
