summer vacation

We had a very long weekend in Florida. Summer did really well on the plane sleeping both to and fro. She was quite the trooper because everytime she woke up she was someplace new. Amanda was the Matron of Honor in a college friend's wedding that was on the beach in Daytona. Needless to say the weather didn't cooperate so the wedding was on the top floor of the resort overlooking the ocean. It was quite a view to be sitting there being able to watch the waves roll in while listening to the vows.

Summer got to meet her great grandparents and many aunts, unlces, and cousins. She really enjoyed meeting the twins shee cooed as they sang her songs. After 5 long days it's nice to be back home in Texas.

hello world

Why is that every sample program shows you how to build a hello world application? Can't we come up with something new and refreshing already or are all the guys writing the books a bunch of lemmings that say to themselves "I know let's show people how to make a message box say 'hello world'". I just wish people could use a bit more humor especialy when it comes to techincal writing, but i guess tha'ts why they're technical writers because let's face it if they wanted to write with humor they'd have a better job.
