OK: I picked other.

When I am at work I carry a cell phone and a palm pilot + a host of other electronic gadgets. My desk has two computers on it; when I am not at my desk I carry a laptop (at least most of the time)

When I am not at work I am on call.

My idea of a superb vacation is to say goodby to all things electric.

To achieve this ideal state of affairs I usually spend a fair amount of time at the local marina. This year I don't have a boat, but I will be sure to find a clunky old wooden day sailer, or something similar during the next few weeks.

Then you just have to go. The ideal destination (for me) is no destination. I usually sail around the US and Canadian Gulf Islands.

Have a great holiday.

PS: I might take a Perl book; but I will try to avoid the temptation.

The dogs bark; but the caravan rolls on.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
