Actual IM conversation with an actual friend of mine:
me: coding is kinda cool in a way
him: yes
him: it’s fun
me: i wrote a program once
me: it was a ping-pong game
me: but while i could hear the ping-pong…i couldn’t see it. weird.
him: lol
him: with skills like that you could work for microsoft
Did I mention it was DOS?
Or was it?
I think I was 18 years old . . . or something like that.

DOS…
That’s too funny.
I was at my mom’s office the other day, and had the pleasure of tossing out manuals that were the size of phone books on DOS, ASCII, and the earliest manifestations of WORD.
and to think that we had to do prompts for every command..

ahh, those were the good old days
Yeah…and anymore it’s hard to remember how to type a prompt even. :)
Thinking of you kiddo….sending you lots of warm thoughts.
