Sorry, you have been verizoned.

"Maybe it's time to turn "Verizon" into a verb. As in:

I can't get to this website, either it's down or the firewall admin's verizoned it.

Damn it, this music download shop is totally verizoned, I can't even burn these files to a CD!

If you're planning to get to West Palm Beach today you might want to take the turnpike, I hear they've verizoned half of I-95 due to construction."

Daemons and Pixies and Fairies, Oh My!

FreeBSD funnies such as "How many FreeBSD hackers does it take to change a lightbulb?" and "Where does data written to /dev/null go?":

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/funnies.html

...and then there recently was this new candidate:

Subject: Re: My freebsd dream
From: chris.trismegistus@gmail.com
To: freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org

I have a dream that one day this [OS] will rise up and live out the
true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident:
that all [code is] created equal." I have a dream that one day on the
red[mond] hills of [Washington] the [derived works] of former
[research projects] and the [derived works] of former [corporations]
will be able to [link] together [in] a table of [compatibility]. I
have a dream that one day even the [company of Microsoft], a desert
[company], sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will
be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream
that my four [computers] will one day [run] in a nation where they
will not be judged by the color of their [GUI] but by the content of
their [code base]. I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day the state of [IP], whose [lawyer's] lips
are presently dripping with the words of interposition and
nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little
[freebsd boxes] and [linux boxes] will be able to [share code] with
little [windows boxes] and [solaris boxes] and [run] together as
[clients] and [servers]. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one
day every [interface] shall be [defined], every [bug] and [error]
shall be [documented], the [compiler warnings] will be made
[understandable], and the [stack pages] will be made [no-exec], and
the glory of the [Code] shall be revealed, and all [users] shall see
it together. This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return
to the [buildworld]. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the
mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able
to transform the jangling discords of [operating systems] into a
beautiful [cluster] of [beowulf]. With this faith we will be able to
work together, to [code] together, to [debug] together, to [core dump]
together, to stand up for [standards] together, knowing that we will
be [compatible] one day.

Refactoring until nothing is left

Code is refactored sufficiently once every feature == a single line of code.

Brendan, never tired of providing Javascript support

From: Brendan Eich
To: mozilla-jseng
Subject: Re: does mozilla support javascript?

Of course Mozilla supports JavaScript.

Your report is pretty useless without a testcase, or the URL of a page that doesn't work as you expect. Perhaps the page expects some non-standard Internet Explorer feature exposed to JScript to be supported by other browsers.
