Silly non technical people

USB portI did not know what to post this morning until I got an email regarding a lost USB port. Like they just fall right out of the computer all the time? I think she meant USB thumb drive.

Someone at work told me that the source code to the program I was working on, had to run from Visual Source Safe. Had I not been feed up with him, I would have politely corrected him, but I think i bit my tongue instead.

Source Safe is like a safe. You put things in; you take things out. If you find a way to run source code from it, I'd like to know.

A year ago or so, I was conducting interviews for a web developer. I think i blogged this once. Anyway, the lady said she was great with PHP on the client side. That was amazing, seeing how PHP is a server side scripting technology.

One of my favorite tech commercials was a CDW one where the viewer is in the head of the network admin... all these people come to you with their problems. One guy thinks he fried the Mother board and the Father board.

I could go on with all the tech support jokes i have heard... but I'm sure there is a web site out there already.
