Sorry for the global response folks... -----Original Message----- From: Higdon, Brian [VIS-Non J&J] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 07, 2004 11:20 AM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: [FRIDAY] YA Stuts In Action / JUnit in Action Trivia Quiz
Ted, Here is my entry for your contest... 1. Tenser, said the Tensor. Tenser, said the Tensor. Tension, apprehension, and dissension have begun. RIFF. and 2. I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
