<Surfer971> the gist is, if you put HTML in e-mail, it will look stupid in many e-mail clients and people will point and yell lamer lamer at you all day long until your boss hears and fires you and you become a useless drunk passed out on the floor and finally you get so fat the floor colapses and you land on somebody, get sued, then jump off a building

(on porting DJGPP to Linux:)
<P2501> ...why port something that is a port to another operating system, back to the operating system that it originally started out on?

(sarcasm)
<MarsSaxman> just think! you could combine all the stability, predictability, and coherence of Windows with all the user-friendliness and ease of use of Linux

What the hell is a weblog?

I got an email[0] from someone blathering about weblogs and how she took
down her website and put up a weblog instead, and I should look into it.


[0] Which I'm now assuming to be spam -- it was generic enough. Didn't
report that one, though.
