Hello all,
I found this funny dialog on the web. I think it is worth a smile :-)
Stefano
"What is feff," You ask?
"Well, I am glad that you asked that," I say. Then I continue, "Feff
is a computer program that makes wiggly lines appear on your computer
screen."
"Not my computer screen," you say.
"Yes, I suppose not YOUR computer screen- MY computer screen...
Anyways, sometimes the lines are long and really very wiggly, and
sometimes the lines are hardly very wiggly at all. But, there are
always at least a few wiggles; you can count on that."
"And another thing about the wiggly lines," I exclaim. "Sometimes
those wiggly lines are pretty good wiggly lines, but then again,
sometimes they are pretty bad."
"How can you tell the difference," you ask?
"Well, that's really very simple. Just go show the wiggly lines to
your boss, and if he looks HAPPY then you have just shown him GOOD
wiggly lines... If he looks SAD then you have just shown him BAD
wiggly lines. And if he says, 'What the hell are all these wiggly
lines?' then you probably just went into the wrong office; try down
the hall a bit...
...just a little further...
...now on your left...
... next one... that's it! Good luck with those wiggly lines!"
