whats the tat?
bonnaroo rulz... I know :)
I know you hate the expressions...hehehehe....
fyi...chad is now a mgr.
new job as in something real...meaning outside the white-collar BS of coding?
is sitting in a cube until 55 or 60 really what human beings were meant to do?
would it be better to live w/ your mom like kerouac did and explore the world when you had money and write about it...or code a stupid pgm. that manipulates data...????
everyone has doubts about their religion...because it is a myth created by humans to satisfy their fear of dying.
whats the pickup for? hauling stuff from lowe's to the plantation???
your friend,
Rog

It's a tat for Mom. I got a heart on my right shoulder with 'Mom' across the banner. Got it in Atlanta at Liberty Tattoo, a couple of weeks before mother's day.
Altogether now: "Awwww..."
I'll have to post a picture, I guess.
Little a,
How am I supposed to answer your "new job" question? You know me. I'll never know what I really want to do with my life.

Of course.

the white-collar BS of coding
I love that line. You've just hit on what I've been whining about for so long. Coding has always been filtered under a bullshit white-collar guise. It's a blue-collar job, but gets treated with a white-collar respect. I would much rather be wrenching on an engine than tweaking code written in the late 70's. What's the difference except for pay and respect?
Sux, it does.

Coding...
It's the 'Breakfast Club' effect. Brian Johnson (Anthany Michael Hall) could do engineering and John Bender (Judd Nelson) could build a lamp that worked.
quotes:
Brian Johnson: I'm a fu*king idiot because I can't make a lamp?
John Bender: No. You're a genius because you can't make a lamp.
How many people could build a lamp and how many could code? Coding is seen as intellectual because of the limited supply of talent that can do it.
