Hehehe...awesome! Now you can ask her for a brand new P4 or AMD XP w/ 512mb of RAM, 4 x 10k RPM SCSI drives, a SCSI DVD/CDRW, cool sound card, 128mb ATI Radeon (or GeForce), a Logitech wireless key/mouse and a brandy new 19" .21dp monitor! (Or rather, maybe you can convert her to linux w/ Star Office/KOffice/OpenOffice) -- Fri Jan 10 14:45:00 EST 2003 2:45pm up 1 day, 4:27, 5 users, load average: 0.00, 0.06, 0.06 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ * linux user:267497 * RH 7.3+ * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Once there was this conductor see, who had a bass problem. You see, during a portion of Beethovan's Ninth Symphony in which there are no bass violin parts, one of the bassists always passed a bottle of scotch around. So, to remind himself that the basses usually required an extra cue towards the end of the symphony, the conductor would fasten a piece of string around the page of the score before the bass cue. As the basses grew more and more inebriated, two of them fell asleep. The conductor grew quite nervous (he was very concerned about the pitch) because it was the bottom of the ninth; the score was tied and the basses were loaded with two out.
