This is what husbands are for

Came home today to find a smear of, shall we say, "something that the cat didn't like sticking to her rear" on the carpet. As I had done something stupid, and it affected other folks, I not only felt stupid but also embarassed and guilty. So I figured that cleaning up cat shit was about my speed.

10 minutes later Jesse comes home and asks what I'm doing sitting on the floor. I explain. He kneels next to me, puts his arm around me lovingly, and whispered into my ear, "Even if you were the smartest woman on earth, cleaning up the cat shit would still be your job."

I really enjoyed that particular laugh....

1. Animated video: The Twelve STIs of Christmas. Not work-safe, but FUNNY.
2. A script to use when answering calls from telemarketers.
3. A judge finds a novel way to get potential jurors.
4. Chocolate for biology students.

Where do I find this stuff? Dave Barry's blog.

why is it...

That a programming book always introduces the topic you figured out for yourself in the chapter after you went searching for it?

Edit: Actually, it still hasn't covered exactly what I was looking for before, just that object class that has the solution.
