I used a workstation for the first time today. It was great being
the only person logged into a machine. As I typed on emacs, each
character appeared as I typed it.
I'm behind in physics and chemistry, the usual paper is due
Thursday, and there's a race all day Sunday.
[Back then I had an account on prill, a time-sharing machine. A load of
20 was not uncommon. When using emacs on prill, I would type a
sentence, and then wait for the characters to echo before continuing.
Some people would type in whole paragraphs without seeing them. When I
first ran xload on a workstation, I thought it was broken because there
weren't any lines.]

On a trip from Fort Collins-Loveland to Centennial last weekend we
hear the following:
Denver Approach: Cessna 5DD? turn heading ???
Cessna 5DD?: Roger turning ???
about 5 minutes later
Cessna 5DD?: Denver Approach we would like to
change destination from Greely
to Boulder
Denver Approach: Say Request Again 5DD?
Cessna 5DD: We would like to proceed direct
to Boulder through the TCA
instead of Greely.
Denver Approach: You can't do that. YOU requested
Greely, YOU are just going to have
to go to Greely first!!!!
Cessna 5DD? BIG TIME SILENCE FOR ABOUT 30-40 seconds
Denver Approach: 5DD? Just kidding, turn heading ???.
Cessna 5DD? r-o-g-e-r. [Oviously very relieved.]
The knack of flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss
