2. A software engineer, hardware
engineer, and departmental manager were on their way to a meeting in
Switzerland. They were driving down a steep mountain road when
suddenly the brakes failed. The car careened out of control, bouncing
off guardrails until it miraculously ground to a scraping halt along
the mountainside. The occupants of the car were unhurt, but they had a
problem. They were stuck halfway down the mountain in a car with no
brakes.
"I know," said the manager. "Let's have a meeting, propose a Vision,
formulate a Mission Statement, define some Goals, and through a
process of continuous improvement, find a solution to the Critical
Problems and we'll be on our way."
"No," said the hardware engineer. "I've got my Swiss army knife with
me. I can strip down the car's braking system, isolate the fault, fix
it, and we'll be on our way."
"Wait," said the software engineer. "Before we do anything, shouldn't
we push the car back to the top of the mountain and see if it happens
again?" |

Last year, my friend upgraded his GirlFriend 3.1 to GirlFriendPlus 1.0
(marketing name: Fiancee 1.0). Recently he upgraded Fiancee 1.0 to
Wife 1.0 and it's a memory hogger, it has taken all his space; and
Wife1.0 must be running before he can do anything. Although he did not
ask for it, Wife 1.0 came with Plug-Ins such as MotherInLaw and
BrotherInLaw.
Some features I'd like to see in the Upcoming GirlFriend 4.0...
- A "Don't remind me again" button
- Minimize button
- Shutdown feature
- An install shield feature so that Girlfriend 4.0 can be completely
uninstalled if so desired (so you don't lose cache and other objects)
I tried running Girlfriend 2.0 with girlfriend 1.0 still installed,
they tried using the same i/o port and conflicted. Then I tried to
uninstall Girlfriend 1.0 but it didn't have an uninstall program. I
tried to uninstall it by hand, but it put files in my system
directory. Another thing that sucks in all versions of girlfriend that
I've used is that it is totally "object orientated" and only supported
hardware with gold plated contacts.
Bug Warning: Wife 1.0 has an undocumented bug. If you try to install
Mistress 1.1 before uninstalling Wife 1.0, Wife 1.0 will delete
MSMoney files before doing the uninstall itself. Then Mistress 1.1
will refuse to install, claiming insufficient resources. |

4.There was once a young man who,
in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.
When asked to define great, he said, "I want to write stuff that the
whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly
emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain
and anger!"
He now works for Microsoft writing error messages. |
