Re: A bit of Friday humour in BMC's Error messages
Inaccurate error messages remind me of my first winter in Alaska last year where when the temperature late one night when I was returning from a late night movie show, was in its sub zeros, I still recall it was about -12 or -15 Fahrenheit (close to -24 to -26 Celsius) and in a hurry to get into a store before it closed not knowing if it was open beyond 1:00 AM, I left my cell phone behind in my car was sort of already a wee bit heated up, got in the store and I may have left the store in under 15 minutes with some water and stuff.. This is what my phone screen read when I tried to use it to get back to my hotel. It had almost frozen in the car. My first thoughts were maybe some of the Apple developers are Eskimos where they thought -12 F was warm so they thought their devices need to 'cool down'! My second thought was lazy freaking developers - could not account for 2 separate error messages for both sides of the extremes... What I really should have thought of is putting it in the freezer after returning to the hotel so it can cool down!

Re: A bit of Friday humour in BMC's Error messages
I installed 8.1 Patch 2 on my development server this week, and it appears to have broken my Mid Tier. I should have known better than to apply a patch so hastily put together that the documentation for installing it is included in a file called Redme.txt (located in the 8.1_AtriumCore_Hot_Fixes.zip file.) I also red the wiki documentation but I saw nothing indicating that it would break the Mid Tier.

OT- friday Humour
Men and women on Earth die and go to Heaven God comes and says - I want the Men to form two queues, One line for the Men - Who dominated Their Women, and One for the Men - Who were dominated by Their Women. Also, I want all the Women to go away so that no Man and Woman can talk. Next time God comes back, the Women are gone, and there are two lines. The line for the Men who were dominated by Their Women is 100 miles long, And in the line of men who dominated their women there is only one man. God gets mad and says, You Men should be Ashamed of Yourselves. I created you in My Image, and you were all whipped by your mates. Look at the only one of my Sons who stood up and made Me Proud. Learn from him! Tell them, My Son, how did you manage to be the only One in this line? The man replies, I don't know, My Wife told me to stand here...!

OT- Friday Humour
Have Nice weekend A wealthy man was having an affair with an Italian woman for several years. One night, during one of their rendezvous, she confided in him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, he paid a large sum of money if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child. If she stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support until the child turned 18. She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born. To keep it discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card, and write Spaghetti on the back. He would then arrange for child support payments to begin. One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife. Honey, she said, You received a very strange post card today. Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it, he said. The wife obeyed, and watched as her husband read the card, turned white and fainted. On the card was written: Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti -- Two with meatballs, one without. Two old men decide they are close to their last days and decide to have a last night on the town. After a few drinks, they end up at the local brothel. The madam takes one look at the two old geezers and whispers to her manager, Go up to the first two bedrooms and put an inflated doll in each bed. These two are so old and drunk, I'm not wasting two of my girls on them. They won't know the difference. The manager does as he is told and the two old men go upstairs and take care of their business. As they are walking home the first man says, You know, I think my girl was dead! Dead? says his friend, Why do you say that? Well, she never moved or made a sound all the time I was loving her. his friend says, could be worse I think mine was a witch. A witch, why the hell would you say that? Well, I was making love to her, kissing her on the neck and I gave her a little bite, then she farted and flew out the window.

OT:Friday Humour
Blessed are the cracked, for they let in the light! TWENTY NINE LINES TO MAKE YOU SMILE 1.. My husband and I divorced over religious differences. He thought he was God and I didn't. 2.. I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it. 3.. Some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them. 4.. I used to have a handle on life, but it broke. 5.. Don't take life too seriously; No one gets out alive. 6.. You're just jealous because the voices only talk to me. 7.. Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. 8.. Earth is the insane asylum for the universe. 9.. I'm not a complete idiot -- Some parts are just missing. 10..Out of my mind. Back in five minutes. 11.. NyQuil, the stuffy, sneezy, why-the-heck-is-the-room-spinning medicine. 12.. God must love stupid people; He made so many. 13.. The gene pool could use a little chlorine. 14.. Consciousness: That annoying time between naps. 15..Ever stop to think, and forget to start again? 16.. Being 'over the hill' is much better than being under it! 17.. Wrinkled Was Not One of the Things I Wanted to Be When I Grew up. 18.. Procrastinate Now! 19.. I Have a Degree in Liberal Arts; Do You Want Fries With That? 20..A hangover is the wrath of grapes. 21.. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a cash advance. 22..Stupidity is not a handicap. Park elsewhere! 23..They call it PMS because Mad Cow Disease was already taken. 24..He who dies with the most toys is nonetheless DEAD. 25.. A picture is worth a thousand words, but it uses up three thousand times the memory. 26..Ham and eggs...A day's work for a chicken, a lifetime commitment for a pig. 27..The trouble with life is there's no background music. 28..The original point and click interface was a Smith Wesson. 29..I smile because I don't know what the hell is going on.

Wife: Why do you think of things like this in the middle of the night? Husband: Because I'm Hot. Wife: You get hot at the darndest times. Husband: If you love me I wouldn't have to beg you. Wife: If you love me you'd be more considerate. Husband: You don't love me anymore. Wife: Yes I do, but let's forget it for tonight. Husband: Please...come on Wife: Alright, I'll do it. Husband: What's the matter? Need a flashlight? Wife: I can't find it. Husband: Oh, for heaven's sake, feel for it! Wife: There! Are you satisfied? Husband: Oh, yes. Wife: Is it up far enough? Husband: Oh, that's good. Wife: Now go to sleep, Wife: And from now on when you want the window open, do it yourself. I ran into Andy at work yesterday. He had been out for a few days with the 'flu. I asked him how he was feeling. I'm better, thanks. You know, it was a wonderful experience. Wonderful? How can the 'flu be wonderful? I asked in stunned disbelief. Well, I learned that my wife really loves me. You know that whenever the postman came by or a delivery man headed toward the door, my wife ran out to meet them?

Friday Humour

It's probably because of her speech impediment, replied the second guy. What do you mean her speech impediment? inquired the first fellow. My wife doesn't have a speech impediment!

Re: Friday Humour
Yesterday I was at my local COSTCO buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my loyal pet, Biscuit, the Wonder Dog and was in the checkout line when woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had, an elephant? So since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.) Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's butt and a car hit us both. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Costco won't let me shop there anymore. Better watch what you ask retired people.

Re: general advice on how to sell the work - this is not a Friday humour
Hi Serouche, Sounds like you've got your answer, please let us know how extensions go. Just FYI: I've run into this a few times myself and what has worked for me is to let the client know that I am the guy that BMC calls when they get stuck. Then I provide direct BMC references from either the director level or at least the project manager level. It's helped me to secure a couple of my bigger clients. Since it looks like you'll be working with BMC here, sounds like you may be able to leverage your success next time around. Good luck with this one, it sounds like fun.

Re: general advice on how to sell the work - this is not a Friday humour
many thanks to all who have showned concern on my question. Specially to Dennis and Jennifer for their wised advice. I've already revised my original rate. But for other reasons. And not th at much. And I shall be doing the job along with the BMC consultant. It could bring more afterwards. Let see. Serouche Drew Shuller a écrit : Quote your original rate. Make sure you're doing something with the implementation. Let BMC take the heat, and pick up the slack when they've gone.

Re: general advice on how to sell the work - this is not a Friday humour
Serouche, As a Remedy developer working for a company who utilizes contract assistance from time to time, I know there is something you have to offer that BMC doesn't. We try to use the same contractor for each engagement because he doesn't have the learning curve often associated with bringing someone new into the company. When you already know how a company does business and have knowledge of their integrations and customizations, you have a leg up on the competition and can get engaged more quickly, cheaply, and produce work with fewer undesirable side effects. You may not be in that position today with this installation just starting, but if you are looking to establish a long-term relationship with this customer where you personally are a regular contractor resource, that is something that you can offer that BMC will have a hard time matching(we have never had the same resource twice going through BMC).

Re: general advice on how to sell the work - this is not a Friday humour
Serouche, I would follow Dennis's excellent advice with the following: Presumably the client is looking for a person of French origin because either the country's dominant language is French or you can offer some knowledge of local culture that someone of another language group cannot. This alone is an excellent leveraging point. So let the client bring in the BMC rep and while the poor American falls flat on his face making typical American blunders, you can wow them with your knowledge of language, culture, and local customs. As Dennis points out, you already know the company intimately. Prove to the client how much better you can do the job than the competition while the competition is on site.

OT - Wednesday humour
Couldn't wait for Friday :-) If you can read this whole story without laughing, then there's no hope for you. I was crying by the end. This is an actual account as relayed to paramedics at a chili cook-off in Texas . Note: Please take time to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the reaction of the third judge is even better. For those of you who have lived in Texas , you know how true this is. They actually have a Chili Cook-off about the time Halloween comes around. It takes up a major portion of a parking lot at the San Antonio City Park . Judge #3 was an inexperienced Chili taster named Frank, who was visiting from Springfield , IL . Frank: 'Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table, asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy; and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted and became Judge 3.' Here are the scorecard notes from the event: CHILI # 1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.. Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild. Judge # 3 (Frank) -- Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy. CHILI # 2 - AUSTIN'S AFTERBURNER CHILI Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang. Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously. Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face. CHILI # 3 - FRED'S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Judge # 2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers. Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting sh*t-faced from all of the beer. CHILI # 4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing. Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.. Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. This 300 lb. woman is starting to look HOT ... just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac? CHILI # 5 - LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive. Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement. Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted, and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw them.. CHILI # 6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers. Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, garlic. Superb. Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I crapped on myself when I farted, and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone. CHILI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers. Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef lite rally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about judge number 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably. Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least

Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting sh*t-faced from all of the beer. CHILI # 4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing. Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.. Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. This 300 lb. woman is starting to look HOT ... just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac? CHILI # 5 - LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive. Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement. Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted, and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw them.. CHILI # 6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers. Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, garlic. Superb. Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I crapped on myself when I farted, and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone. CHILI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers. Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef lite rally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note

Friday Humour
Been meaning to post this for a few weeks now but keep missing the deadline (Monday morning is just too late). The following is from issue 2655 of New Scientist magazine, 07 May 2008, page 84: *Programming in Croydon* FINALLY, it is hard to keep up with all the programming languages around these days, and if you're not careful you can easily get wrong-footed when you believe you're being asked about them. Michael Francis tells us of an interviewee applying for a position as a software developer with a company that has its head office in Cambridge, UK, and a development office in the south London borough of Croydon. During his interview in Cambridge the programmer was asked how he would feel about programming in Croydon. I'm a little rusty on the more recent languages but I'll soon pick it up, was his reply. Despite this, Francis says he got the job.

OT:Friday Humour Part Deaux
My bad . A business man got on an elevator in a building. When he entered the elevator, there was a blonde already inside and she greeted him by saying, T-G-I-F (letters only). He smiled at her and replied, S-H-I-T (letters only). She looked at him, puzzled, and said, T-G-I-F again. He acknowledged her remark again by answering, S-H-I-T. The blond was trying to be friendly, so she smiled her biggest smile and said as sweetly as possibly T-G-I-F another time. The man smiled back to her and once again replied with a quizzical expression, S-H-I-T. The blond finally decided to explain things, and this time she said, T-G-I-F, Thank Goodness It's Friday, get it? The man answered, Sorry, Honey, It's Thursday. http://www.funnyhumor.com/viewcount.php?type=jokeid=1145s= Useful Work Phrases 1. Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view. 2. The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist. 3. I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce. 4. Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental. 5. I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't care. 6. I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid. 7. What am I? Flypaper for freaks!? 8. I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant. 9. I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth. 10. Ahhh, I see the f**k-up fairy has visited us again. 11. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you. 12. It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of Karma to burn off. 13. Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial. 14. No, my powers can only be used for good. 15. How about never? Is never good for you? 16. I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to worship me. 17. You sound reasonable...Time to up my medication. 18. I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter. 19. I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message. 20. I don't work here. I'm a consultant. 21. Who me? I just wander from room to room. 22. My toys! My toys! I can't do this job without my toys! 23. It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level I'm really quite busy. 24. At least I have a positive attitude about my destructive habits. 25. You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers. 26.

What's the matter with me? he asks the doctor. The doctor replies, You're not eating properly. A man asked for a meal in a restaurant. The waiter brought the food and put it on the table. After a moment, the man called the waiter and said: Waiter! Waiter! There's a fly in my soup!

They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints, and were stuck in the thick head. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer, and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened.

As the conductor passed the stall, he knocked and calledTickets, please! and one of the Scots slid a ticket under the door. It was punched, pushed back under the door, and when it was safe all the Scots came out and took their seats. The Englishmen were tremendously impressed by the Scots' ingenuity. On the trip back, the five Englishmen decided to try this themselves and purchased only one ticket. They noticed that, oddly, the Scots had not purchased any tickets this time. Anyway, again, just before the conductor came through, the Scots piled into one of the toilet stalls, the Englishmen into the other. Then one of the Scots leaned out, knocked on the Englishmen's stall and called Ticket, Please!

An English man and an Irish man are driving head on , at night, on a twisty, dark road. Both are driving too fast for the conditions and collide on a sharp bend in the road. To the amazement of both, they are unscathed, though their cars are both destroyed. In celebration of their luck, both agree to put aside their dislike for the other from that moment on. At this point, the Englishman goes to the boot and fetches a 12 year old bottle of whisky. He hands the bottle to the Irish man, whom exclaims,'' may the Irish and the English live together forever, in peace, and harmony.'' The Irish man then tips the bottle and gulps half of the bottle down.

OT - Friday Humour
The Smartest Dog Ever As a butcher is shooing a dog from his shop, he sees $10 and a note in his mouth, reading: 10 lamb chops, please. Amazed, he takes the money, puts a bag of chops in the dog's mouth, and quickly closes the shop. He follows the dog and watches him wait for a green light, look both ways, and trot across the road to a bus stop. The dog checks the timetable and sits on the bench. When a bus arrives, he walks around to the front and looks at the number, then boards the bus. The butcher follows, dumbstruck. As the bus travels out into the suburbs, the dog takes in the scenery. After awhile he stands on his back paws to push the stop button, then the butcher follows him off. The dog runs up to a house and drops his bag on the stoop. He goes back down the path, takes a big run, and throws himself -Whap! - Against the door. He does this again and again. No answer. So he jumps on a wall, walks around the garden, beats his head against a window, jumps off, and waits at the front door. A big guy opens it and starts cursing and pummeling the dog. The butcher runs up screams at the guy: What the hell are you doing? This dog's a genius! The owner responds, Genius, no way!

Re: Friday Humour RE: JOB: Remedy position in Kuwait (UNCLASSIFIED)
In many countries to practice engineering, you are required to be licensed. In the US, this requires that you first pass an 8 hour endurance test called the EIT or Engineer in Training. Then you apprentice for 5 years under other licensed engineers. Finally you are eligible to take another 8 hour exam, the Profession Engineer (PE) exam. In Civil Engineering one chooses which 8 questions they will answer out of the dozen or so choices presented to them in the PE. Each question is multi-part and designed to take an hour to completely answer the question.

Re: Friday Humour RE: JOB: Remedy position in Kuwait (UNCLASSIFIED)
As a college graduate, graduating as a Software Engineer (BS Degree), I don't see how becoming a PE would help me. After looking at the the NCEES website, I don't see how becoming a PE would significantly help a Software Engineer as none of the exams seem to touch software specific categories. I do think that a Software Engineer should know basics about the topics the exams cover. I think the equivilent to the PE for Sofware Engineers would be certifications from the different companies (Sun, IBM, Microsoft, BMC, etc.). I'm still fairly new to the Software Engineering community (graduated in 1999) so I could be wrong in this assumption.

Re: JOB: Remedy position in Kuwait (UNCLASSIFIED)Vikram, Not to dispute your claims or anything, but I'm surprised you have customers in Kuwait. I used to work in Kuwait not more than 3 years ago with the only Remedy VAR there is, and according to their agreement with Remedy, they were supposed to be the sole Remedy partner/VAR for the Middle Eastern and East African region (EMEA). So even if a company thought of buying Remedy products and had an in-house expertise with the product, they had to go through them to purchase and for support of these products. I think the only exception was the US Army base in Kuwait/Qatar which anyway didn't really fall into the EMEA territory as technically it is a US base so it got its support from USA. So has Vyom Labs opened a shop in Kuwait?? If so who are their partners? Who are your customers there? Just wondering if they are any companies I did any projects with.. I'm just curious that's all..

They are used to all appendages doing different things in different directions at different rates. :-) -- Regards Dave Saville ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at http://www.wwrug.org

CON is for the console (screen), PRN for printer, NUL basically means NULL or nothing. Try typing in DIR PRN into a command window. The directory listing will print. DIR NUL will not show anything. (In the old days programmers would run commands and have the output go to NUL so that they ran "transparently.") Looks like con, prn, nul can not be used. __20060125___This posting was submitted with HTML in it___

Re: OT: Try this out... Friday Humour
** I just got this one this morning: -- How Smart Is Your Right Foot? This is so funny that it will boggle your mind. And you will keep trying it at least 50 more times to see if you can outsmart your foot. But you can't. 1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles with it. 2. Now, while doing this, draw the number 6 in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change directions. I told you so...And there is nothing you can do about it. Make sure you pass this on to your friends. They won't be able to do it either. -- Thad Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they're yours.-- Richard Bach McKenzie, James J C-E LCMC HQISEC/L3 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) arslist@ARSLIST.ORG 10/13/2006 02:01 PM Please respond to arslist@ARSLIST.ORG To arslist@ARSLIST.ORG cc Subject Re: OT: Try this out...

Re: OT: Try this out... Friday Humour
** Depends on how slow you draw the 6 in the air, or maybe I'm not normal (there said it before anyone else grin) You can also draw the 6 clockwise (I know people that make their 6s that way. Start at the top left of the circle part of the 6 and make the circle clockwise. When you get to the starting point continue upward to make the top.)
