I thought it was hilarious, his descriptions of sexual arousal, she
didn't ;-)


Can you blame her? She was probably very close to your mother, and
still missed her.

I was just identifying with the past... all the negatives about sex
when I was a kid, then my _father_ fretting over a boner ;-)

My mother and I never got on well, and my sister is a virtual image

That sure explains the label printer.

Sure explains why NOT to volunteer ;-)

If your wife wasn't busy with her volunteer work she might decide to
spend more time keeping you in line! :(


Tell me about it. My wife isn't working since we moved and doesn't
want to look because we're not planning on staying here for more
than another six months or so. Who knows though, if there's work
to be done we may stay for a long time (since we finally made it
out of weenie-land).


So, where are you guys now?

NE OH. It's a lot cheaper than VT, though a lot more "big-city".
When asked about the size of the city, I reply "five Walmarts, five
Home Despots, and four Lowes". There are two, two, and zero in the
whole state of VT. ;-)


Always on the look-out for business-friendly places and where they don't
tax grandparents out of their homes :)

Well, we made it 2/3rds of the way to KY. There is a *lot* more
work here too. ;-)


I beat you to kentucky. I arrived there in the later half of in
1952, at a hospital in Menifee County.! ;-)


Yeah, but you were dumb enough to leave. ...for Florida, of all

Only after 30+ years in Ohio. At that time there was no electronics
work in the area. Months between job postings. A freind who was an EE
ended up serviceing lotto machines for the state of Ohio. i was hired
as a broadcast engineer as soon as I hit Florida. It was my first, and
only application after moving south. I was hired before I had time to
apply anywhere else.


Things seem to have changed, big time. Of course everything is
electronics today. I've been getting calls from a company that
makes *big* welders. Of course I made an ass out of myself by
asking why they were looking for me (FPGA, embedded controller
hardware type). Well, I have been asked to look at some *strange*
openings.

I doubt that we'll stay long though, although SWMBO is going house
shopping this week. It seems the housing "bubble" has hit here
hard.

Hey Keith, do you have much experience with Gb ethernet stuff? can you

Big?

Many years ago (60s), a friend worked for GE making SCRs.

I've got one here where the anode connection had a "litz wire" the size
of a finger.

Big.

Many years ago (60s), a friend worked for GE making SCRs.

Their biggest customer was another division of GE, the one
that made railroad locomotives.

In the '60s my father consulted part time (he was a prof,
specializing in motors and transformers) for Caterpillar designing
DE earth-movers used for dam building. They were pretty big too.

No sense of humor. I bet she thinks your parents never "did the

yep, and as seen above, I also know how to copy and paste. Have you
figured out how to use scroll bars yet, or that little wheel thingy in
your mouse? Ask a 10-year-old child, they'll be able to help you
understand this new-fangled technology

PS Im not a bastard, although mum was pregnant with my older brother
when my folks married, so does that make him conceptually a bastard?

Sure explains why NOT to volunteer ;-)


If your wife wasn't busy with her volunteer work she might decide to
spend more time keeping you in line! :(


Tell me about it. My wife isn't working since we moved and doesn't
want to look because we're not planning on staying here for more
than another six months or so. Who knows though, if there's work
to be done we may stay for a long time (since we finally made it
out of weenie-land).


So, where are you guys now?


NE OH. It's a lot cheaper than VT, though a lot more "big-city".
When asked about the size of the city, I reply "five Walmarts, five
Home Despots, and four Lowes". There are two, two, and zero in the
whole state of VT. ;-)



Always on the look-out for business-friendly places and where they don't
tax grandparents out of their homes :)


Well, we made it 2/3rds of the way to KY. There is a *lot* more
work here too. ;-)



I beat you to kentucky. I arrived there in the later half of in
1952, at a hospital in Menifee County.! ;-)


Yeah, but you were dumb enough to leave. ...for Florida, of all
places! <ack!>



Only after 30+ years in Ohio. At that time there was no electronics
work in the area. Months between job postings. A freind who was an EE
ended up serviceing lotto machines for the state of Ohio. i was hired
as a broadcast engineer as soon as I hit Florida. It was my first, and
only application after moving south. I was hired before I had time to
apply anywhere else.



Things seem to have changed, big time. Of course everything is
electronics today. I've been getting calls from a company that makes
*big* welders. Of course I made an ass out of myself by asking why they
were looking for me (FPGA, embedded controller hardware type). Well, I
have been asked to look at some *strange* openings.
you email me off-line?



No, I haven't. The closest I've come is GB Rocket-I/O we're working
on now and that hardware isn't back yet (and the ****** "forgot" to
order parts, so it looks like the boards will be delayed two months).
we are looking for someone to help with some FPGA stuff. we are using Gb
ethernet physical layer, so have phy chips connected to our fpga, but
dont want to use the ethernet protocol itself. we have a couple of FPGA
guys, but they have no experience in this area, and its one of our risk
items (it has to work, or back to the drawing board). email me,
[email protected] if you are at all interested. we have people working
in: hong kong, SF, bvelgium & NZ...

Do any of you stupid fucking bastards understand what it means to SNIP?????

yep, and as seen above, I also know how to copy and paste. Have you
figured out how to use scroll bars yet, or that little wheel thingy in
your mouse? Ask a 10-year-old child, they'll be able to help you
understand this new-fangled technology

Cheers

PS Im not a bastard, although mum was pregnant with my older brother
when my folks married, so does that make him conceptually a bastard?

Only conceptually. Once he was born he was OK.

I look at it as being polite, just like saying please and thank you.


If you think scroll bars are the solution to all the world's
problems lets look at a few numbers. Let's normalize things
to a standard keysroke.

Suppose it take me (and most other readers) 1 (magic) keystroke
to get to the right place to read whatever you said.

Suppose it takes you 100 keystrokes to trim out the gerbage
and tell us what you are really responding to.

That's a 100 to 1 ratio.

So if you expect 101 people to read your comments it would
be a net win if you trimmed the junk.

flip it around: I still have to do the 100 keystrokes, yet you only have
to do one, and are complaining ?!

nobody forced you to read the post. And lets be honest, if your time was
that valuable you wouldnt be wasting it on usenet.....
