$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / There once was a man who went to a \ | computer trade show. Each day as he | | entered, the man told the guard at the | | door: | | | | "I am a great thief, renowned for my | | feats of shoplifting. Be forewarned, | | for this trade show shall not escape | | unplundered." | | | | This speech disturbed the guard | | greatly, because there were millions of | | dollars of computer equipment inside, | | so he watched the man carefully. But | | the man merely wandered from booth to | | booth, humming quietly to himself. | | | | When the man left, the guard took him | | aside and searched his clothes, but | | nothing was to be found. | | | | On the next day of the trade show, the | | man returned and chided the guard | | saying: "I escaped with a vast booty | | yesterday, but today will be even | | better." So the guard watched him ever | | more closely, but to no avail. | | | | On the final day of the trade show, the | | guard could restrain his curiosity no | | longer. "Sir Thief," he said, "I am so | | perplexed, I cannot live in peace. | | Please enlighten me. What is it that | | you are stealing?" | | | | The man smiled. "I am stealing ideas," | | he said. | | | | -- Geoffrey James, "The Tao of | \ Programming" / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
