No problem. It's all good.
I try to find inspiration towards creative work wherever I can and when I find it I like to share it with others. I was amazed that the movie based on the ridiculous idea of walking on the tightrope between two buildings could be so good and be so inspirational. Also, my wife, who really dislikes documentaries liked the movie too. We were both amazed that a story where you know the outcome (that he does indeed walk between the buildings could keep us on the edge of our seats like that one did.
It's directed by Robert Zemeckis (sp?) who is a really great director.

I was making a collection of methods and figured, "hey, I'll call that a madness" -- think about it.
But now I've decided I need it to be a collection of delegates -- shouldn't that be called a "congress"?

If it is a political meeting then it is probably a collecton of morons.

Just saw this tweet from Stroustrup (creator of C++) and had to share it:
Bjarne Stroustrup "I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out how to use my telephone."
Yes, even experienced technologists are confused by technology.

Dunno if this is more or less appalling, but if you text my Mom she'll eventually (potentially weeks later when she needs to place/receive a call and finally turns her phone on and sees the notification) call you back (quite possibly on the landline) and remind you that she doesn't know how to read texts on her phone and has no idea what you tried sending her.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

One of the good things about mobiles is that there are iphones and androids,
as the IT guy visiting various clients occasionally asked "how do I do X on my phone" and an android thrust at me, my answer "sorry, I'm an iphone guy," and of course visa-versa.
Next best plan, point at some young person in sight thumbing away on their phone, "that guy/gal is an expert." (And often as not they are - esp compared to my phone abilities.)
Can't be bothered learning, me old eyes having trouble seeing the tiny text on the tiny screens... already grumpy enough - prefer to age gracefully, not digitally.

Did you forget one? As one of the last WP users, I don't have to answer any mobile questions period! It's also a great reason why I can't 'facetime' the rest of the family!
