In the winter of 1991/1992 I shared an office with 3 Evans & Sutherland high end graphics workstations. It was -5C outside with 50cm of snow and I had the window open. When I returned in the summer they thankfully gave me a different office.

recently, I'm having a really hard time distinguishing jokes from serious statements (and have been wrong more often than I'd like).

Dude, in every airport I've been to there are displays on the wall which show both the local time and the flight status. Your boarding pass shows the departure time and you should know what timezone you are in and what time it is. Don't blame the technology in your pocket :)

Are you one of these annoying people who stop on this narrow bridge to take a picture and basically block the path for folks who just want to get from A to C?

Two figures walk along a corridor lined with complex machinery. 

The worker says "Congratulations, sir! The most intelligent machine ever created is ready to change the world. Ten billion dollars well spent...  What shall we ask it to do? "

The billionaire replies "That's my business, not yours. Close the door on your way out."

Now alone with the machine, the billionaire asteps closer and asks quietly "Can you Make people like me?"
it says "No"
