Look who i met on my car door frame this afternoon.

"Jumping spider" is right - little rascal was smaller than my thumbnail and it jumped four inches or more from the rear-view mirror to the door frame.

The Minister of the Exchequer said to the King, one winter's eve, "Majesty, I do not understand. Last year the harvests were poor, and the people face famine. Last fall, there was flooding in the south that destroyed roads and bridges and devastated cities and towns.

"In the north there has been plague.

"For the new year, you have ordered taxes doubled, and you plan to spend everything on new forts and weapons and soldiers, but not one penny to help the people>"

"Yes," said the King. "When the revolution comes, I'm going to be ready."

Twenty years ago when i was working phone support for NEC, the state-of-the-art computers they were shipping with W95 had problems running it.

Now there's this kid here in Atlanta who wasn't even born yet then, who has it running on a wristwatch.

W95
