Computer Philosophy


A computer is like an Old Testament god, with a lot of rules and no mercy.
--Joseph Campbell

A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human
history--with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila. --Mitch Ratliffe

All parts should go together without forcing. You must remember that the
parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you. Therefore, if you can't
get them together again, there must be a reason. By all means, do not use a
hammer. --IBM maintenance manual, 1925

Computers are useless. They can only give you answers. --Pablo Picasso

Computers will never take the place of books. You can't stand on a floppy
disk to reach a high shelf. --Sam Ewing

Don't explain computers to laymen. Simpler to explain sex to virgins.
--Robert Heinlein (in "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress")

Hardware: the parts of a computer that can be kicked. --Jeff Pesis

It was not so very long ago that people thought that semiconductors were
part-time orchestra leaders and microchips were very small snack foods.
--Geraldine Ferraro

Man is the best computer we can put aboard a spacecraft ...and the only one
that can be mass produced with unskilled labor. -- Wernher von Braun

No computer has ever been designed that is ever aware of what it's doing;
but most of the time, we aren't either. --Marvin Minsky

One thing a computer can do that most humans can't is be sealed up in a
cardboard box and sit in a warehouse. --Jack Handey

There is only one satisfying way to boot a computer. --J.H.Goldfuss

They have computers, and they may have other weapons of mass destruction.
--Janet Reno

The most likely way for the world to be destroyed, most experts agree, is by
accident. That's where we come in; we're computer professionals.  We cause
accidents. --Nathaniel Borenstein

To err is human -- and to blame it on a computer is even more so. --Robert Orben


And my favorite:

Windows: A 32 bit graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an 8 bit operating system,
originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company
that can't stand 1 bit of competition.

For the upcomming politically correct holiday:

On the 12th day of Eurocentrically imposed midwinter festival my significant other in a consenting,
adult, monogamous, relationship gave to me:

Twelve males reclaiming their inner warrior through ritual drumming.

Eleven pipers piping (plus an 18 member pit orchestra made up of members in good standing of the Musicians Equity Union as called for in their union contract, even though they will not be asked to play a note.)

Ten melanin deprived testosterone poisoned scions of the patriarchal ruling class system leaping.

Nine persons engaged in rhythmic self-expression.

Eight economically disadvantaged female persons stealing milk products from enslaved bovine Americans.

Seven endangered swans swimming on federally protected wetlands.

Six enslaved fowl-Americans producing stolen non-human animal products.

Five golden symbols of culturally sanctioned enforced domestic incarceration.(After members ofl the
Animal Liberation Front threatened to tthrow red paint at my computer, the calling birds, hens and partridge have been reintroduced to their native habitat. To avoid further Animal-American enslaavement, the remaining gift package has been revised.)

Four hours of recorded whale songs.

Three deconstructionist poets.

Two Sierra Club calendars printed on recycled processed tree carcasses, and

One Spotted owl activist chained to an old-growth pear tree.


Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Good Kwanzaa,, Blessed Yule, and Happy Holidays*

*unless you are suffering from seasonally affected disorder(SAD). If this is the case, please substitute this gratuitous call for celebration with the suggestion that you have a thoroughly adequate day.

I am going to bring out the next edition of our paper. This is Hump Day Helpers (a few minutes early). [:)] [8D] [:D]



COUNTRY WISDOM

Don't name a pig you plan to eat.

Country fences need to be horse high, pig tight, and
bull strong.

Life is not about how fast you run, or how high you
climb, but how well you
bounce.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stumps.

A bumble bee is faster than a John Deere tractor.

Trouble with a milk cow is she won't stay milked.

Don't skinny dip with snapping turtles.

Words that soak into your ears are whispered, not
yelled.

Meanness don't happen overnight.

To know how country folks are doing, look at their
barns, not their houses.

Never lay an angry hand on a kid or an animal, it just
ain't helpful.

Forgive your enemies. It messes with their heads.

Don't sell your mule to buy a plow.

Two can live as cheap as one if one don't eat.

Don't corner something meaner than you.

You can catch more flies with honey than
vinegar--assuming you want to catch
flies.

Man is the only critter who feels the need to label
things as flowers or
weeds.

It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.

Don't go huntin' with a fellow named Chug-A-Lug.

You can't unsay a cruel thing. Every path has some
puddles.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

The best sermons are lived, not preached.

Most of the stuff people worry about never happens.

AMEN!

To the other half of Kevins world..
Any man too macho or too proud to listen, seek out, or consider the advice of a woman is condemed to live a lonely life, unfufilled and useless.
Was sitting here earlier, and realized Aimee and I have been married almost half of her life.
I have grown to count of her advice more than anyone else.
Any lasting relationship has to be based on trust, and respect.
I respect her opinion, and trust her to have both our interest in mind in every decision she makes, as she counts on me to do the same.

You story of Kevin to the resuce shows what type of person Kevin is.
Real men dont let things like the drunk, or the muggers slide.
A lot of people would have just let the girl at the station deal with the problem, not wanting to get involved.
I doubt Kev even though about what could happen, he saw a bad thing starting, and acted.
You should be proud.
Even if he wears kippers and war paint!
Stay Frosty,
Ed[:D]

Hey Joe welcome to the Four Star Club, whatever that means.. Wait based on mathematics and changes.. Is that what happens when you hit 1000 posts?? I think i see the light, Well congradualtions.. what number am I at.. or Kevin at? Thsi female-rule thing is getting to me,

It is now in day 3..

Ed in response to your response, A relationship Requires a Lot (and if your with Kevin, which your not, it Requires ever more Give and take) of give and take.. And i'm not standing on a limb by saying That most 16,. 17 year old Kids don't have what it takes to keep a relationship going. I have firends who are working on their 5th, 8th, 10th boyfriend and they're 18 maybe less!

Thats SAD!
i've had.. hmm.. One Boyfriend.. since It seems like forever. On a more serious note, If I was to calculate all the good times, and all the not so good times (I.e both those times i told you,) the score might come out to be +12, 377 and - 246. Look, I told everyone those incidents, But it doesn't happen like that every day, praise God.. otherwise i'd suffer from mass embarassememnt and wind up having a heart attack. When it comes to relationships, Kevin is as flexible as a piece of putty! I think he takes more Crap from me then I take from him.. Yes, for all the men out there, You Know when that is!

hehe.. He really puts up with me when that clock strikes midnight. yikes, trust me, you'd hate to be in the same neighborhood!

We've had lots of times where i'm only glad kevin was present. One time we were at a restaurant, and I got up, to go to the bathroom, then this guy who was drunk from the bar, Started making lewd comments, and kevin who could hear a cricket in the middle of Houston, Texas was over like a fla***elling the guy to back off.. so as kevin headed back to his seat the guy grabbed me and held on to me tight, Kevin turned around and Wang Chunged the guy right in the face.. I was shocked/terrified/stunned all three of those led me to not know how to react..

Sure the police had to come, But Nothing happened to Kevin.. He was hailed for saving me from the brute.. I don't know what the brute could have done, and trust me i don't want to know what he would have done..

Thats what is great to know, and it applies to every woman, Kevin If he over hears, he will be over protecting you no matter when where nor what time it is..

One time, during the graveyard shift, midnight train or the 11 pmer going through the west Island, it stopped at Cedar park.. Ed I think Kevin sent you the systems map.. so you would know where i'm tlaking about. This girl got off the train and as Kevin watched out the mirror, these two goons attacked her.. Kevin was already running for the door, so was the Engineer, and I think there was a thierd conductor too.. Either way, Kevin was first on the scene. Holding one of the guys back and he was shortly joined by the engineer, who both of them held both guys while the theird guy called the police.. The train was really late that night.
Maybe there wasn't a 3rd conductor, it may have been an innocent by standerd

So like I said, the good FAR, far, far, far out weighs the bad.. at any given time, and no matter what.. you just have to hold on, no matter what.. Now i'm sure their are exceptions, But for better or for worse!

Now i've heard from Kevin, That there are a few teenagers who don't have Girlfriends. on this site, too! Common Guys! let me give you THE MOST IMPORTANT tip ever! and if you don't like hearing tips from women, Thats too bad, because to my recolection, I don't recall asking you if you liked it...

A) Compliment a Girl! Go up to a girl and tell her how you like her hair, Soemthing like that! You know when I was in High school, i would have given my two front teeth for a guy to come up to me and tell me somehting like that! You know what that means to a woman? A hell of a lot!

Thats that! Thats all you have to do.. Because you will see, it will naturally progress from there.. you'll see.
I think the period key is jammed because every time I press it 2 or 3 come out ...

Jim, were all gonna call Kevin Mac, i'll do it at home!! Yes do it, do it! do it!

tommorow night, i'll tell you all about Kevins really bad timing Rap Joke..
theres a funny one!

But I Think i'll pack it in for tonight...

Good night
If Kevin were here what would he be doing..
putting up MORE christmas lights.

Peace.

p.s again, it's too late to proof read. sory fro my bobos, hye lok it's kevin!

Now with the business meeting over with we can relax and read the newest edition of the Humor Thread Paper. [:)]


And away we go . . . . . . . . . . . [:I]



A woman was walking her two dogs. As she passed a
couple of teenagers, they commented on the size of the
dogs, and what breed they were.

Finally they asked the dogs names. This is Rolex and
that's Timex, she replied.

They started laughing and said those are weird names
for dogs.

Not really...."they're watch dogs."

Its will top out at 53, then drop to below freezing tonight, our month of winter is here.

No permanent damage done.
Aimee is still chuckling though.

I wonder why you go out in public with Kevin?
Do you just like being embarassed to death?

And if JC Pennys gets you excited, then you would have a stroke over Dillards and Foleys, they make Pennys look like K Mart.

more like 2 going on 20
Great! you see what i've done now, i've exposed the truth, I think we should name this after an MTV series or something like that Kevin Exposed!! And now on episode three (fot those of you wondering, I always start my sentances with and) I'm thinking of something really bad that kevin did. it's like the same principal..

Okay back 2 years ago, Kevin was 4 years old.. not really, just kidding. But i'm talking Mental age We sometimes hoped to our neighbours to the South, Messina, New York. for a little shopping. For those of you who don't know the area, there is a big Native American reserve right there, and most the people that shop there are Native American.

OH OH... it get's bad, rememebr once again, sorry in advance

Well we were at JC Penney.. I love that Store!! And i was looking at make up.. while Kevin was changing Departments he saw me looking at various shades (HEY! it's a girl thing, OKAY?!!) and he kinda stoped and said very loudly, in a french English accent

"OH NO! You don't need anymore War Paint!"
(imagine it said in a french accent)

The shop litteraly died. and everyone was silent, and they were all looking at Kevin, So i did my usual save the day, and grab him and took him out to the big mall, where I couldn't help laughing.

yeah, however very embarassing.

Hows the weather down south, i.e Texas?

Why because i need a new place to tan, oh speaking of tanning places.. we were doing a tour of various (We being myself and Kev) member only tanning salons, (A lady needs to Tan!) and the lady was showing us at one place what the ups were, and we came to the first tanning bed. and guess who had to open his big yammer and say "Wow, Cancer now comes in a funny shaped box!"

So Ed is it tanning weather still down south?

and yes 70 is tanning weather. It's what 40 up here? with a terrible wind too!

I got to stop, my theory of talking way to much is looking like its a true theory.

Its too late to proof read, so ignore the errors.

yeha I'm tired, Ed did I cause any permanent damage?
sorry if i did, and sorry if you can't go to work tommorow..
Blame Kevin, and Jim and Joe for encouraging me.

Cheers all

I remember when... and you already know this is gonna be good..

The squirrels decided one day to have a "Christmas light pie" complete with metal, wires and glass. I think Kevin almost killed the squirrel that ate his Christmas lights..

Candels.. I like them, Kevin hates the smelly ones.. he hates anyhting perfum scented.

This keyboard in the library is so loud.. Everyone keeps glaring at me!
Kevin would say somehting lewd right now to the people who stare. He always has soemthing terrible to say, Never subject your kids to Kevin, (Note: so i don't slander him, that is mostly a joke, he's really not that bad!) however, he ahs his moments. One time we were in the Jewish part of Montreal, kevin is partially Jewish.. yet sometimes he doesn't realise that people can take offence to his jokes..

the story is as follows, and please don't take offence if your Jewish.. don't hate Kevin either.. This would be socially acceptable in France.. I think. The stoey goes like this:

One day, we were shopping at a Jewish store.. and Kein sees some Kipas for sale (please tell me I spelt that right) Kevin picks up a stack, puts them on his head and says: "hey look, A big mac!" I think every Jewish person wanted to kill Kevin, needless to say we left quickly.

Oh and yes, I taught him what Never to do again.

Once again, sorry for those who are offended. Just thought i'd share that story, But i'm trying to think of a train realted story.Oh i know.. I heard this one from a fellow engineer

one day Kevin was walking to one of the exits (doors) on the train to go outside and make sure that all passengers had borded. The train was just stopping at the station, and Kevin tripped fell down the stairsand landed like head first on the stairs body against the door.. But before Kevin could get up, then the sliding doors opened and kevin went crash on the platform.. It was night time so not many people saw, but the few who did laughed. The engineer thought someone had picked Kevin up and threw him out the door. But like most times, it was his own stupidity.. It took a while to figure out what the cause was, it seems Kevin forogt to tie his shoe laces, therefore the moral of this story is....

Tie your shoe laces!

By the way this keyboard is so darn loud.. and i don't have time to proof read my work, so my spelling tonight will be exactly like "kevisn speling."
None of those stories were truly funny, so I will do my best to come up with stuff even funnier.. It happens on a daily basis.. so it's really not that hard..

2 Things Kevin hates in this worls, and truly hates:
(i.e do this to annoy him)

A) like someone who like uses like every like 12 secondes.

B) Burnt out Christmas lights. I gurantee you every one works at my house, because kevin has personally checked them all.. therfore you better have all your lights working


This corny moment brought to you by Kevin't Girlfriend!
Jim don't encourage me! your making me type.. It's you!!. Ahhh encouragement!! ahh!!

see you all later, this keyboard is insane.
oh and by the way, Female Rule is now in day two.

PEACE!

I would say welcome to the forums but you really are not new to them. But welcome to the forums anyway. [:)]

Keep telling us these stories, we need to hear them. One of these days we might want to remind Kev about one of them. [:p] [:0] [B)] [8] [}:)] [;)]

I like candles, so does Kev like candles too? BTW I put up my Christmas lights about 3 years ago. They stay up. Why take them down just to put them back up next year. It just seems like SUCH a waste of time. [:0]

Keep us posted. [:D]

For the shoes section,try my wife. She is 4'-7" tall
and takes a size 1-1/2 to 2 in childerns no less.
If she needs a pair of"grown-up" shoes, we damn near
go bankrupt to buy them[:)]

Also I'm figuring out that you haven't heard the story
of "Joe Schitt"[:O] Try Floglo or Send for fun to read this[^] [:)] [:D]

A) I think the "SHOES" section is a little small, I mean for goodness sakes, I have at least 25 pairs of shoes (not kidding) and for some reason every time I buy a new pair of shoes, Kevin slaps his head then drags his hand over his face from top to bottom, but he never says a word, smart move on his part!


I thought the shoes section was way too big. I only have one pair of shoes. Then again have you ever checked out the women's size 11 section of the shoe store? For some reason it's usually full of crap like high heeled sneakers and shiny purple leopard skin heels.

You all should stop encouraging me, because I thrive from encouragement, and am most likely going to say something stupid and then wind up in trouble

AS IF!

oh well, what the heck, you all have me until Thursday night, Maybe even Friday!

But I miss my Kevie!!

You all know how Kevin pulls pranks on me, so Hey I have to retaliate somehow! I remember one time, I took a bag of oreos and spent 45 minutes scraping out the middles (and eating them) and putting Colgate toothpaste in the middle, and watched kevin over 3 days eat the whole bag...

Never complained once.
He did mention the minty taste a few times...

So let's see its Quarter to nine, and as I turn my head i see.. Christmas lights.. AND LOTS of them....
I figure the only thing that we don't have on display is the Santa in the Sleigh.. you know? Kevin hates those, he claims there stupid because they look very fake and are made of plastic, he hates big plastic things. So we have about 10, 000 Christmas lights shining through all our windows, lighting up the hall, bedroom, bathroom, living room.

Kevins a light Junkie..

okay now I know there are A LOT of smart people on this site.. what do the RED pepper lights symbolize?? why do they symbolize Christmas?? Why the freak are they for sale? I don't understand yet we have some up.

Can you believe me.. look at this.. I started off with no point.. I still have no point.. and I've already written about 12 lines.. Wow.. i do talk to much

Oh I know.. how about the time Kevin was on the train and he got a ticket? Oh this is Gold.. He got fined 110 bucks... there was a new inspector, and he didn't know Kevin worked for the Train company... Kevin tried to explain, and he kept being told, "I've heard this one beofre, sir.. would you take your seat now." I was laughing so hard I almost died... Kevin was so enraged He ripped up his ticket (fine ticket) in front of him, stomped on it, rubbed it into the floor with his foot, picket it up and shoved it in the inspector's pocket.. and was then fined 450 bucks.. Can you imagine how funny this was?? (note to the person reading this: Try to put yourself there, it will seem funnier) Now Kevin was livid.. and if you've never seen Kevin livid.. he goes into a tizzy for about 4 minutes, then it's all over.. in 10 minutes he won't even remember what angered him in the first place! ( If your in a rush, you can easily turn that into 5 minutes by sitting him down in front of a hockey game on TV) so we got off the train, Kevin was his usual self again..

i'm not sure how he cleared that up, but he never payed a dime..

Just remember when he gets back to make fun of him...alot... and when he askes who told you.. tell him.. I DID..
(P.S he knows he's got to take what I deal, and like it!)

I didn't imagine i could have so much fun here!

I'll think of more embarassing stories!

until then, I figure if I start unplugging these lights..well it's 9:06 now.. I should be done by midnight!

Got to Fly..
