Quote of the Day - [4]

If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.

_ Thomas Fuller

The so-called "desktop metaphor" of today's workstations is instead an
"airplane-seat" metaphor. Anyone who has shuffled a lap full of papers
while seated between two portly passengers will recognize the difference --
one can see only a very few things at once.
-- Fred Brooks

A person who trusts no one can't be trusted.
~Jerome Blattner

A Guy

Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.


Confucius

A successful [software] tool is one that was used to do something
undreamed of by its author.
-- S. C. Johnson

My dad tried to kick my ass once, he didn't like it much when I fought back and left him with a broken jaw and a slipped disk in his back.

Must have a very sad early life my friend. Me I was so lucky to have the parents I did they brought us kids great happiness amidst the poverty and they were always straight talkers but fair.
I try to be the same with my one and only son he is just my most treasured friend and in my mind the greatest man that ever lived.
