And now, the obligatory programming jokes. After all, I'm a programmer. Also, I
work as a lab assistant. Helping people. With their programs. Shall I draw you a
picture? Oh, -wait-, I -already did-...

Needless to say, MFC is hellspawn, although I -love- CSockets. Mmmm... CSockets.
Blech, MFC. In short, it's a love/hate relationship.

Some students wanted to program their assignments in Java. My attitude towards
that is, "Fine, just don't expect any help. SUCKAH!" Well, maybe not in so many
words.
