Re: [jug-discussion] Sometimes I wish I had a blog....[off topic]
If I had a blog I'm sure I'd have millions of readers. I'd draw them in with some great quotes, like these: When you come to a problem you can lean forward and code or sit back and think. -- Todd Proebsting A month of coding can often save a day at the library. -- Greg Thain There is no formula for success. But there is a formula for failure and that is trying to please everybody. -- Nicholas Ray If you can't get it to the water, it doesn't matter how good your canoe is. -- Robinson Crusoe, paraphrased If you needed seatbelts last time, you'll need airsick bags today. -- David Hanson, prefacing a CSc 453 lecture at the U of Arizona By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll become happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher. -- Socrates - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

As Chauncey Gardiner(Being There) would say,"Perhaps Wil Shipley has a vision problem." -- Original message -- Every once in a while I wish I had a blog so I could point to interesting tidbits I stumble across.But, since I don't, I couldn't resist sending this quote about software.I hope it's not too off-topic for you'all.cheers,-tom"I believe the best software is written by small groups of people who have both passion and vision.Passion is easy to define; you care so deeply about something that it wounds you if it's done poorly.Vision can mean different things, but I mean the ability to not just come up with new ideas, but toactually be able to see how they would integrate with people's lives. Vision without passion givesyou a guy who sitting on couch saying, "Flying cars! Wave of the future! Mark my word, the guywho invents that's going to be rich... pass the chips." Passion without vision gives you America'scurrent political situation, where we allow huge companies to destroy the world but pass laws tomake sure nobody marries a turtle."-Wil Shipleyfounder Delicious Monster softwarehttp://www.delicious-monster.com/company.php
