With that 1000 symbol library you could make anything look impressive (or so the blurb seems to indicate). Ah well, we knew we were becomming commodity items anyway. [flush]

You might need to get an instant degree

to fully utilize this product.

GeneratorGrrl:

We have to change one of your requirements. The site Rich2001 referenced us to allows 18 year olds to qualify for degrees. The last thing we want to do here is discriminate because of age!!!!!!!!

Are people really that out of touch with what we do?


YIKES.........

The H.R. people don't know the difference, that's for sure. Where DO their degrees come from?

Just add alcohol!

That makes me think of using that really special fancy gold-plated wrapping paper to wrap a nice warm steaming box of poo, or instant doctor on a box of band-aids.

"I use my Degree ( a Doctorate) as a dating ploy. I had good quality calling cards professionally printed and I always present them on being introduced to anyone. Often, I simply introduce myself to a lady I find attractive and offer the card saying that I would like to meet her for dinner at some future date, if she is amenable. More often than not, I receive a call."

That pretty much says it ALL.

I have a vision of Gene Wilder as Dr. Frankenstein (pronounced Fraawnkensteen) standing over his creation...a potential engineer laying on a stainless steel table, lightning flashing overhead above his laboratory and Egor (pronounced eye-gore) briskly runnning around spinning dials and looking worried.

The engineer-to-be (ETB?) is twitching slightly and the good doctor screams, "LIVE, LIVE, CALCULATE!!!" while pounding on his chest. The pounding dislodges the calculator strapped to the ETB's waist. It falls to the floor and shatters. Dr. Frankenstein drops his head on the ETB's chest and weeps.

Can anyone explain "Double-Precision Accuracy"? I think I need this.

[SnTMan]

You know, thats where you carry TWICE as many significant figures as your DATA had!

 

[HgTX]

Why would one need to buy the fake degree as a dating ploy? Why not just skip right ahead to the fake business cards?

Well a guy has to have SOME ethics!
