At a meeting the other day someone used the (unfamiliar) term “script gorilla”, as well as the more common “code monkey“.
Got me wondering: what other variations could there be?
Any thoughts?

DRM … bah!
Not very impressed with Digital Rights Management (DRM) this evening. I wanted to open a PDF that I purchased last year.
The file told me that I needed to activate Adobe Acrobat in order to view it.
So I did.
The file told me that I needed to activate Adobe Acrobat in order to view it.
So I did. Again.
The Adobe site then told me that before I could view it I had to activate Adobe Acrobat or Reader on the computer that I originally downloaded the file to.
I already have. It was this one.
This one … before I reinstalled Windows XP on it.
I can’t see any way around this, without having to repurchase the title. Bah!
Horses covered in yoghurt
Did you know, there is not one single image available on Google Images for the very specific search phrase: “horses covered in yoghurt”.
However, horses and marmite serves up a peculiar WWI image of “horses killed by German marmite”.
Astonishing!
My prosaic Jesus
Fantastic short story on Ginkworld: “my prosaic jesus” … or “Brown like Shit” by David Sherwood.
Inspiring! took me back to Primary one!
Not that I’m saying that Primary 1 was the most inspiring time of my life, you understand!
Branston
I wonder how much Branston Pickle I’ve ever eaten.
Not as many as 28 million jars a year.
