But you don't mind plaguarising others' code? :-)
Hey, your "Village" audience won't know! I once went to a comedy club in the Village, I think, called the Boston Comedy Club (strangely I'd just come from Boston). This was just before hostilities in the first Gulf War.
My first visit to such and I was early, and didn't know better than to be seated right at the front.
The commedian came around to the front rowers - "Hi. Where you from?.." - the usual.

To me - "You're from England? Hey you guys are really helping us out in the Gulf there.... thanks for the tent!"

I thought "You cheeky git" but he'd whipped the mike away and gone to the next victim before I could respond with "Well you helped us out in the Falklands ... thanks for the Gattling Gun!"

Below is cool. I just try to avoid writing code as much as possible, myself.
