celine (Robert Fullmer):
Like my parents, I have never been a regular church member or churchgoer.
It doesn't seem plausible to me that there is the kind of God who
watches over human affairs, listens to prayers, and tries to guide
people to follow His precepts -- there is just too much misery and
cruelty for that. On the other hand, I respect and envy the people
who get inspiration from their religions.
- Benjamin Spock

"I don't mind if you forget me.
I've learned my lesson--I never left
An impression on anyone."
-- Morrissey

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can't change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.

therese (Suntioinen Therese M.):
DESIDERATA
Go placidly among the noise and haste, remember what peace there may be
in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with
all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,
even the dull and ignorant, they too have their story - Avoid loud and
aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare
yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there
will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements
as well as your plans - Keep interested in your own career, however
humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of
trickery. But let this not bind you to what virtue there is; many
persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism
- Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical
about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as
perennial as the grass - take kindly to the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the the things of youth. Nurture strength of
spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself
with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond
a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself - You are a child of the
universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be
here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is
unfolding as it should - Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you
conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the
noisy confusion of life, keep peace with your soul - With all its sham,
drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be careful, strive to be happy.
- Max Ehrman

==========
May your signals all trap use -> for a pointer
May your references be bounded a dot if its not
All memory aligned ? : is confusing
Floats to ints rounded use them a lot
Remember ... a.out is your program
there's no U in foobar
Non-zero is true and, char (*(*x())[])() is
++ adds one a function returning a pointer
Arrays start with zero to an array of pointers to
and, NULL is for none functions returning char
For octal, use zero
0x means hex - Seen in rec.humor.funny
= will set
== means test
