1> Code in an ancient language on an unsupported database.
2> Check out the wrong version of code, so that we always miss re-entering incremental bug fixes.
3> Write all code in a single event. Modular code is a waste of time.
4> Use an IDE that does not integrate with the source control tool.
5> Do not delete previously commented code. This increases the number of lines of code in any given module.
6> Resist any inclination to upgrade.
Most of them tend to be direction less zombies, looking downstream for ideas and upstream for appreciation.

Being single really isn't so bad, provided you're somewhat antisocial by nature and enjoy your own company. And if you have a few friends to satisfy the occasional companionship cravings, the single life is actually better than most relationships.
But, yeah, dating pretty much blows. Unless you're the sort of person who finds fun in even the most dreadfully dull, stupid, and psychotic company during the most miserable romantic misadventures, dating is only enjoyable when you find that instant spark of chemistry with each and every individual you date. Of course, if there's chemistry with the very first person, if you hit it off and feel an immediate attraction, why keep dating around, especially knowing how rare chemistry can be?
If this over-reaction to stuff continues, I might seek a lawyer first, a shrink later.
Throwing your used batteries in the woods is just plain stupid. You don't deserve a camera.
Definitely light weight, but not warm.
Pros: Durable, Good Value
Cons: Not very warm
Best Uses: Backpacking
I used this product on two backpacking / day hiking trips. I noticed the performance of this jacket is good as long as the weather stays in the lower 30s or the higher 20s. If the weather goes below 20F, I suggest using a heavier jacket. I had to use a down vest in addition to this jacket.
The best part of the jacket is that it is light and you should be able to stuff it in your backpack. I travel very light and in that aspect it is a good investment.

A beautiful waterfall at Ricketts Glen State Park. This park has 22 water falls, all of them worth seeing.
Everybody seems to be talking about the economy meltdown. I don't see a meltdown. There's so many sales happening every month, in the business I work for. Why would people be buying stuff if the economy is melting?
A few investment firms "Merill Lynch and Lehman Brothers" lost their shirts, because of gambling. Gambling with other people's money is what they know best. People ought to be careful when handing out their hard-earned gains to these firms.
These gulls are being fed the wildlife equivalent of junk food. Doesn't really matter, since they have grown used to it, in any case.
Noticed this scene whilst waiting for the ferry at Ocracoke.
is like a cancer that your body builds slowly over a period of time. It accumulates in your brain - drop by drop of negative thoughts till you start to feel life become unbearable. Most people will not be able to notice its coming. They will attribute it to other things and one day - wham you feel like you don't want to live anymore.
There are a lot of weirdos on the internet. I think the girl who broke my heart was one of them.
The end.
there was this tree that was cut before it could reach its potential. i feel like that tree right now.
My emotional pain seems to have manifested into physical pain. Now I have an aching shoulder and a broken ankle.
I wonder if I will be fit enough for Katahdin.
It is the curse of humans to pursue things that they do not need and they do not have. They usually spend a life time doing that. Then they wonder how life passed them by.
i had met this ultimate fantasy of mine. we had sex and now she left me. i am in so much pain. it hurts when i think about it.
The Young British SoldierWhen the 'arf-made recruity goes out to the East
'E acts like a babe an' 'e drinks like a beast,
An' 'e wonders because 'e is frequent deceased
Ere 'e's fit for to serve as a soldier.
Serve, serve, serve as a soldier,
Serve, serve, serve as a soldier,
Serve, serve, serve as a soldier,
So-oldier _of_ the Queen!
Now all you recruities what's drafted to-day,
You shut up your rag-box an' 'ark to my lay,
An' I'll sing you a soldier as far as I may:
A soldier what's fit for a soldier.
Fit, fit, fit for a soldier . . .
First mind you steer clear o' the grog-sellers' huts,
For they sell you Fixed Bay'nets that rots out your guts --
Ay, drink that 'ud eat the live steel from your butts --
An' it's bad for the young British soldier.
Bad, bad, bad for the soldier . . .
When the cholera comes -- as it will past a doubt --
Keep out of the wet and don't go on the shout,
For the sickness gets in as the liquor dies out,
A' it crumples the young British soldier.
Crum-, crum-, crumples the soldier . . .
But the worst o' your foes is the sun over'ead:
You must wear your 'elmet for all that is said:
If 'e finds you uncovered 'e'll knock you down dead,
An' you'll die like a fool of a soldier.
Fool, fool, fool of a soldier . . .
If you're cast for fatigue by a sergeant unkind,
Don't grouse like a woman nor crack on nor blind;
Be handy and civil, and then you will find
That it's beer for the young British soldier.
Beer, beer, beer for the soldier . . .
Now, if you must marry, take care she is old --
A troop-sergeant's widow's the nicest I'm told,
For beauty won't help if your rations is cold,
Nor love ain't enough for a soldier.
'Nough, 'nough, 'nough for a soldier . . .
If the wife should go wrong with a comrade, be loath
To shoot when you catch 'em -- you'll swing, on my oath! --
Make 'im take 'er and keep 'er: that's Hell for them both,
An' you're shut o' the curse of a soldier.
Curse, curse, curse of a soldier . . .
When first under fire an' you're wishful to duck,
Don't look nor take 'eed at the man that is struck,
Be thankful you're livin', and trust to your luck
And march to your front like a soldier.
Front, front, front like a soldier . . .
When 'arf of your bullets fly wide in the ditch,
Don't call your Martini a cross-eyed old bitch;
She's human as you are -- you treat her as sich,
An' she'll fight for the young British soldier.
Fight, fight, fight for the soldier . . .
When shakin' their bustles like ladies so fine,
The guns o' the enemy wheel into line,
Shoot low at the limbers an' don't mind the shine,
For noise never startles the soldier.
Start-, start-, startles the soldier . . .
If your officer's dead and the sergeants look white,
Remember it's ruin to run from a fight:
So take open order, lie down, and sit tight,
And wait for supports like a soldier.
Wait, wait, wait like a soldier . . .
When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
An' go to your Gawd like a soldier.
Go, go, go like a soldier,
Go, go, go like a soldier,
Go, go, go like a soldier,
So-oldier _of_ the Queen!
-- Rudyard Kipling

I fail to understand why this makes perfect sense to some people. For me it is not making any sense at all.
