Ok, worst joke I never got:"What do you get when you cross a mountain climber and a mosquito?
Nothing, you can't cross a scalar and a vector!"
Wut? How is a mosquito a vector?
Maybe this is the relationship?
Or maybe this (apparently a type of mosquito)

Oh that's terrible...
Mosquitos are vectors for disease, maleria's the most commonly known one. Montain climbers are scalars because they scale things.
And no, you can't cross a scalar and a vector. Cross products require two vectors.

Brings me back to the beginning of my days (pun intended). A different language entirely:
10 Print "I'm not a Re-Curser but I am a Re-Cursor."20 GOTO 10
Now if I would only remember how to re-write this in a proper language like X86 Assembler :w00t:

This might be close:
l1: move cx, 10
cec cx
mov ah, 9
mov dx, msg
int 0x21
mov ax, 0x4C00
int 0x21
msg db 'Im not a Re-Curser but I am a Re-Cursor.$'
loop l1
... I've never done too much with assembler except for, erhm, int 13 calls followed by a jmp F000:FFF0. I won't mention why. That was a long, long time ago in another life.

A mosquito is a disease vector, like with malaria.
If I'm being clueless and you do actually get the joke, my apologies for explaining.

Rolling to Pensacola in the am for SQL Sat 77, and likely out of touch most of Fri and Mon (vacation). Hope to see some of you there.

You know, these pork chops sound like thoroughly disgusting things, without even speaking of the parsons nose versions. In fact, I suspect that if you were to get hit by one then authorities wearing biohazard suits would grab you and give you a shower clothes and all in the middle of the street. It's something I'd code RBAR to avoid. :ermm:

x86 a *proper* language? 68000 assembly all the way!!! (Darn IBM for picking the inferior processor when they built the first PC... :-D).

I have no interest in "proper" programming languages. I don't have time to be holding my pinkies out while I type or putting doilies under everything.

To quote from a thread I've been involved:
Also, I will start to participate on the site more often. It has always been useful and seems to be very helpful and friendly.
What else can we ask for?
