A week ago my uncle called and left me a voice mail. I've been thinking about him, then he called me again last night close to mid-night which was unusual. The phone conversation went something like:
ME: [seeing his name on the caller ID] Hello [name], How are you?
HIM: Hello, I know you called me today, I am returning your call
I'm puzzled as I did not call him.
ME: I was thinking about you. Thank you for your call last week, but I did not call you today.
HIM: As soon as I stepped into the house my son told that you called earlier to let me know your brother arrived safely.
I am more puzzled because I didn't call and my brother didn't travel.
Then suddenly, his son burst out laughing "Happy April's fools day Dad!"
Nice way to reconnect family.

Why is it called "Alcoholics Anonymous" when the first thing you do is stand up and say "Hi, my name's Joe and I'm an alcoholic"?

I have a friend who's in NA. He has a horrible habbit of telling me, when he talks about someone, that that's how he knows them. I've told him more than once he doesn't have to tell me where he knows people from.

I assume that's Narcotics Anonymous, rather than he's embedded in Sodium?

Could be Narcoleptic Anonymous? and would they be truly anonymous or not?, let's wake them and see.

That is what the anonymous part is supposed to be for. You are quite welcome to use any name you wish, so Griff's Joe need not really be called Joe, and he is supposed to have some confidence that others in the group don't run around outside of meetings telling everyone they know Joe from the AA/NA.

That's an abysmal pseudonym. Quite fishy if you ask me.

But your name isn't "Joe".
And if you've lied about that, I'm not 100% sure that you're an alcoholic, either.

Probably not. Between them I think Nagy and DD have drank everything on the island. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

Because it's based on the same principles as Internet privacy.

The alcohol stays anonymous. You don't say "Hi, my name's Joe and I'm addicted to Scotch Malt Whisky".
|
|

Is the equivalent support group for people who just cannot stop talking called:
On and On Anon
A positive attitude may not solve every problem, but it will annoy enough people to be worth the effort.

I'm wondering about the cheapest way to get into developing on the Mac platform -- focusing on creating AppStore applications.
I saw this item at Amazon
Apple Mac Mini MGEM2LL/A Desktop (NEWEST VERSION)[^]
I'm wondering how I can know if:
1. it comes with the most current version of the Mac OS (EDIT -- product detail mention Mac Yosemite)
1a. is the Mac OS free? not sure
2. Is it powerful enough to create basic AppStore applications and debug them?
3. Can I just buy any Intel based system and install Mac OS on it? (doubt it, but curious)
4. If I bought this, is it easy enough to remote desktop over to it? Maybe not RDP, but maybe I'd have to use VNC? Is it easy to do on a Mac?
Any additional information is appreciated. This is just a discussion and not a development-specific question and I hope it's okay.
thanks
