Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson went camping. They pitched their tent near a river and went to sleep, but in the middle of the night Holmes wakes Watson up and tells him, "Watson, look up at the stars and tell me what you deduce."

The sleepy Dr Watson is surprised and a bit annoyed that Holmes has woken him up in the middle of the night, but as he is familiar with his friends strange ways, he tries his hardest to give a proper answer to Holmes' question. "Well," he says, "I see millions of stars, and if there are millions of stars, and if even a few of those have planets, it is quite likely there are some planets like earth, and if there are a few planets like earth, there might be life on them."

Holmes glares at him and says, " And is that all you can deduce from what you see?!!"

Watson doesn't like his friend's sarcastic tone. He keeps on trying: "Well, we can also deduce that if there's life on other planets, they could be as advanced as we are. If so, they may be able to build rockets and spaceships. And if they are able to build spaceships, then all these stories about UFOs may be true."

Watson looks at Holmes proudly, hoping that his friend will praise his excellent deduction.

"Watson, you fool! Can't you see that somebody has stolen our tent?!" shouts Holmes angrily.

Форум  " borderline personality central sufferers talk":

Then they said they had to tow my dads car for 30 days and i had a panic attack. I started to get the important things I nedded out of my car before it was gone and then the officer descided that he wanted to feel like he was GOD and said " Sorry buddy' you're gonna have to get the rest of that at the tow yard;...he wouldn't even let me get the other shoe that for the one I was able to get out-- my only non-dress and also expensive shoes. Then he and a couple other cops thought it was kinda funny that i was so panicked, so angry and freaking out. (I was at work before this and wearing a shirt and tie), so they didn't think I was the type to flip out. When they laughed I lost it completly and I had never hit a lower time in my life. All that flooded my body and thought was despair and servere anxiety about how much my life just changed and "these guys think it is funny." I wanted to hit the bastard cop but I am ... ( дальше )

Форум  " Young Violists":

You shouldn't be terrified of college, although it can be intimidating. I just had my first audition ever (ever) at Indiana University and I choked so badly it wasn't funny. I played so poorly compared to how I regularly play (even in solos with crowds). But it's all a learning experience and I know I have many more auditions to go, and that now I will be ready. You shouldn't worry about your credentials, but finding the best way for you to go to become as best as you can ... ( дальше )

Форум  " Clicker Training for Horses":

soon as a foot moved forward or upward, the clicker work was on. She learned to load her front feet fairly easily -- but would not load the hind feet. I finally loaded them manually -- walked around the side of her and reached for one back foot and picked it up and put it inside the trailer. Once she got that concept, she went ahead and loaded herself up. I really do not think that she understood that all four feet had to be inside the trailer. I think she thought the job was done once her front end was in there. They're funny, aren't they? ... ( дальше )

Форум  " narcolepsy":

That is so funny, because I know I feel the same way. I can never tell the end of a movie to anyone, because I normally don't see the END of movies! If I have been on an airplane and someone asks me how the flight was, I can't tell them, because ... ( дальше )

Форум  " new-httpd":

Funny, I took the list of exceptions to be so large and hard to maintain that it made more sense to go with Jeff's original idea of just disabling sendfile by default unless a user specifically decided to enable it. I just had to debug a problem for a friend with sendfile on Linux. I don't know what caused the problem, but disabling sendfile solved it immediately. Seems to me that until our sendfile support is better, we should err on the side of always sending the data correctly instead of absolutely as fast as possible. ... ( дальше )
