analog versus digital time
"Don Y" wrote in message
After a few mornings of burying our heads in pillows while he chuckled his way across the room to shut off the alarm, the next morning, I just opened the window and, with the alarm clock still plugged in, threw it out the window! My, how time flies! -- Bobby G. |

Hi Bobby,

My, how time flies! grin He was NOT happy! We didn't "gently" place it outside our 4th floor window. Instead, it was: open window, *toss* it out! I.e., the fact that we didn't first unplug it was an oversight; we expected it to crash to the ground -- not "dangle" from the cord! [C'mon, you're a *guest* in our place! *You* aren't paying rent. Shouldn't you be a bit more CONSIDERATE??] |

A friend, here, some years ago, called us with a dilemma. Someone (I can't recall if it was UPS, USPS, DHL, etc.) delivered a *box* full of *CASH* to her house (no signature required -- obviously, the delivery firm had no idea of the box's contents. Equally obvious was the fact that the shipper hadn't wanted to *indicate* its contents on the packing list!) I don't remember if it was a novel or a movie, but I remember a plot line like that. Maybe a Sue Grafton mystery. |

Maybe a Sue Grafton mystery. It's actually a scary proposition! Finding it ON THE STREET (or in a parking lot) would be a lead pipe cinch -- no real ties back to *you*. But, given our proximity to the border, it's awfully likely that it was associated with something considerably less than legal. |

When you've woken up I'll lend you my HP 16C calculator. I liked to leave it laying around set to hexadecimal to confuse the unwary. It also uses Reverse Polish Notation so if anyone ever did manage to add 5 and 5 they gave up when the answer was A. |

Coming from someone who once was fairly proficient at FORTH, that's something. It's a different programming paradigm. Everything is a *list*. car/cdr (and variants) let you select portions of a given list; cons lets you modify/make new lists. It's a delightfully expressive way of doing things. But, incredibly inefficient because lists aren't forced to be well-behaved -- like arrays, etc. |

Reminds me when I visit my cardiologist. The place is packed with all kinds of people. One side of the waiting room is for patients being tested and are partly radioactive from the medicine for heart imaging. People sleeping, etc.. It is a sight to behold. A recent visit, the paramedics showed up. As long you aren't the one they are there for... I could have been. That young gal put me through the paces on the treadmill. Then a male nurse injected me with nuclear medicine -- but luckily they allowed me to bring a samich for food. The young gal denied she was trying to kill me. I'm not eighteen anymore. |

You've undoubtedly never been told to "turn your head and cough"! : haha! Well, I've had other nightmares to endure worse than that "hello?!?? Do *I* know you?!??" moment. "Aren't you at least going to buy me DINNER, first??" : It's not cheating if your spouse gets to watch. No way I can think of a speculum as a sex toy! Nor me, but I have witnessed digital intrusions with a finger by medical staff to find secreted drugs hidden in cavities. |
