Of course I have heard of it. Wasn't much of a success story.So, what will come after the Microsoft Wristwatch? Microsoft buys the United Kingdom and replaces Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) with Microsoft Mean Time (MMT)? <GRIN>
You're telling us you've never heard of the "Swatch Beat"?
So, why shouldn't M$ try it as well? It wouldn't be the first time they "enhance" someone else's invention...
Now *that* I have never heard of (at least, until I read your post and then did a Google search on "Discordian Calendar").Or how about a whole new calendar? The very first day of the new calendar will be what used to be called October 28, 1955 (Bill Gates' date of birth). The days of the week will be renamed to the various M$ OS versions (today is "NT4-day", tomorrow is "XP-day"), and the start of a new month will be determined by the release date of a new XBox game. <GRIN>
Nope, there's already a Discordian Calendar.
Pretty sure. Although I must admit that something like, oh say, JDG confessing to be a communist might surprise me... <GRIN>Jeroen "Nothing surprises me anymore" van BaardwijkRU Sure
