Re: Strange Coding Tales

First off I have to say a quick thanks to my wife, for marrying me and the computer at the same time....

My favorite medium aside from keyboard is definately bar napkins and sharpies..

When I get stuck on a piece of code though I walk away, take a breather and try again later, or grab a nap. Kim tells me I talk perl to her in my sleep, and a thought has been voiced a couple of time to have a tape recorder by the bed to capture it... Apparently I correct m logic to boot, but anywho

The reason for this post is I've had some of my best breakthroughs, aside from sleeping, while making love to my wife. Its gotta be one of the best, most satisfying feelings post sex making a great breakthrough in your code and glowing with pride as it works...

I hope this doesn't offend, but I just had to share.

/* And the Creator, against his better judgement, wrote man.c */

I have to say, if I were thinking of coding in the midst of sex, it would only be in an effort to delay the inevitable (akin to reciting baseball statistics). :) Not to mention, what if in the heat of the moment you lose that valuable train of thought? There's nothing worse than codus interuptus... (dodging tomatoes) Matt	[reply]
