    No.
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

The PM intervenes asking me which ticket im working on. I completely ignored that question, and got stuck into the BA. "Have you done my test cases?". BA shakes head, still shoe gazing. I call "right, meeting over" and everyone slopes off. The PM is stumped.
        Why was he on the ceiling?
        Were you laying on the floor?
        Are you a dingo?

        He probably had difficulty looking you in the eye because yours are crossed in a kind of 'Hills have eyes' way?

          He hasn't come back. I think he posted just when the coke rush started abating.

            What a little joker he is, no-one could be that much of a prize tit in real life.
            I don't know, I've met a (mercifully small number) of people in real life that actually were that arrogant and deluded about their own self-importance. You must have encountered some too: you've banned several of them.

              I always thought AussieLong was some sort of data type, like an int, varchar or long

              maybe he sees himself as a bigInt, whereas we see a big cnt

                His threads are a floating point operation.

                    Oh that does make me chuckle. I am sure I don't need to point something out here....

                    Floater, that brings back memories of staggering through Woolloomooloo at god knows half past stupid in the morning and stopping by Harry's Cafe de wheels and ordering one. Surprisingly nice, and much better than a kebab for full drunken goodness.

                      I do love the Aussie place names.

                      I got particularly excited when we drove through Wollongong - I remember my first installation of Wollongong TCP/IP on my windoze 3.1 machine back in 1992...
