The newest thing I heard, its not good...

That does put a damper on our relationship.

You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die.

Ray: We still have each other.
Claire: It's really that bad, isn't it?

You 'found' a pie?

Corn Nuts!

You've been mostly-dead all day.

True. But that's hardly common knowledge, is it?

Please consider me as an alternative to suicide.

Won't that be nice. She kissed me!

This is true love - you think this happens every day?

Sonny, true love is the greatest thing, in the world-except for a nice MLT - mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe... they're so perky. I like that.

Look, I don't mean to be rude, but this is not as easy as it looks. So I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't distract me.

Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up. Buttercup is marry Humperdink in little less then half an hour so all we have to do is get in, break up the wedding, steal the princess, make our escape, after I kill count Rugen.

We've got to have rules and obey them. After all, we're not savages. We're English, and the English are best at everything.

Every man dies, not every man really lives.

There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.

Finally I got to the very last office, the very last desk, after that
whole big thing there, and I walk over and say "what do you want?" and
the man says "Kid, we only got one question: have you ever been
dewheeled?"

So I proceeded to tell him the story of the 10600 page five pack PS:
with full orchestration and five part harmony and other phenomena and
he stopped me right there and said "Kid, did you ever get hauled on
the carpet for it?"

So I proceeded to tell him about the 27000 page RP06 pack with the
comments and the -READ-.-THIS- files and he stopped me right there and
said "Kid, I want you to go sit over there on that bench marked Large
Systems SIG. NOW, KID!"

I, I walked over to the bench there... See, the Large Computer Group
is where they put you if they think you may not be compatible with the
rest of DEC's product line.

There was all kinds of mean nasty ugly people there on the bench...
Chaosnet designers... Lisp hackers... TECO hackers. TECO hackers
right there on the bench with me! And the meanest one of them, the
hairiest TECO hacker of them all was coming over to me. And he was
mean and nasty and horrible and undocumented and all kinds of stuff.
And he sat down next to me and said:

[1:i*^Yu14< q1&377.f"nir'q1/400.u1>^[[8
.-z(1702117120m81869946983m8w660873337m8w1466458484m8
)+z,.f^@fx*[0:ft^]0^[w^\

And I said "I didn't get nothing, I had to rebuild the bittable in
queue six" and he said:

[1:i*^Yu16< q1&77.+32iq1f"l#-1/100.#-1&7777777777.'"#/100.'u1r>6c^[[6
.(675041640067.m6w416300715765.m6w004445675045.m6
455445440046.m6w576200535144.m6w370000000000.m6),.fx*[0:ft^]0^[w^\

And I said "Littering". And they all moved away from me on the bench
there, with the hairy eyeball and all kinds of mean nasty ugly stuff
until I said "and making undocumented gratuitous changes to the
default EMACS key bindings". And they all came back, shook my hand,
and we had a great time on the bench talking about Chaosnet hacking
and Lisp interpreters written in TECO, and everything was fine.

I have no idea what you just said right there.

I understood most of it, except for the "meanest hacker" speak.

That's TECO. The editor for REAL PROGRAMMERS. I don't know what those TECO macros do, probably calculate PI to 1000 digits or something, but it sure explains why Emacs is so weird... the first version of Emacs was implemented in TECO Macros.

You're a smart man, Jack. But I don't entirely trust you.

Never used TECO. Never actually heard of it until today.

Lord... this makes me feel dumb..but I still don't get it. What's Emacs and Teco? It's ok... I'll go check in with Uncle Google and come back...

You haven't lived until you've patched a running kernel with TECO (yes, you could use TECO on binary files and on memory maps) five minutes before a live demo.

Actually, I used adb, not TECO, because I hated TECO back then.

Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs...
