3 - In this morning's news, one Mr. Bill Buchan was found to be "chirpy" on the morning train. Some passengers wondered if next, Mr. Buchan would begin to "tweet" as well.

6 - In the circle of adults I know, outside the trade, I usually have to explain what Lotus Notes is until I notice the eyes glaze over. So these days I just say I'm a programmer.

At least SWMBO can remember what it is, sometimes, after all it's been paying the bills for over 13 years. Ho hum.
