Does it work?

Today I received this weird email:

الســــلام عليكــــــم ورحمــة الله وبركاتــه ….
تحيــة طيبــة وبعــد:
أختي الكريمة ابعث إليك هده الرسالة المتواضعة راجيا من المولى أن تصلك وأنتي
في أحسن حال وتمنيت أن أتعرف عليك وان يكون بيننا كل ود ومحبه وأجمل ما في
الدنيا الصداقة الحقيقية النابعـة من القلــب تكون مليئة بالصــدق والإخلاص ومحبــة
الخير لكل الناس… أنا لا أريد أن أطيــل عليك بالكلام وإنشاء الله بكــون الكلام بعــد
ردك على هذه الرسالة المتواضعـة وأتمنـى أن تبعتي الرد قريبـا وأنا على استعــداد
للإجابة على أي أسئلة ترغبين بمعرفتها وأنا بانتظارك,,,,,
وأتمنى أن تردي على رسالتي المتواضعة بالموافقة أو الرفض دون أي إحراج وأنا
اقدر قرارك بدون أي نوع من الحساسية ولكن أتمنى بموافقتك على الصداقة الجميلة
التي تدوم للأبد إنشاء الله …وأحلى باقة ورد لأحلى عيون تقرأ هذه الرســـــــــــالــة
المتــواضعــة،،،،
وأخيرا تمنياتي لك بالتوفيق والحياة السعيدة……
ملاحــــظة : إذا فعلا وافقتي على الصداقة التي ستجمعنا أتمنى أن تضيفي
هذا الايمل عندك الايمل اللي بكون متواجد عليه دائما وهو:

xxxxx@hotmail.com
والياهو:
xxxxx@yahoo.com

مع خالـــــص احترامـــي
الصـــد يـــــــــــــــــــق

من المؤلم … أن تحب بصدق …وتخلص بصدق …وتغفر بصدق ثم تصدم بنهاية تخذل كل الصدق الذي قدمته ومن العذاب …أن تكتب لمن لا يقرا لك ..وأن تنتظر من لا يأتي لك … وأن تحب من لا يشعر بك …وأن تحتاج من لا يحتاج إليك ..
“ثم تكتشف أن أجمل العمر كان سرابا”

Ok, after you have read this stuff, I have a couple of questions, the first one, does it really work, like is there any girl that would reply to such email, from someone, this is the first time to send an email. Did anybody ever done that and got to meet the girl, or did any girl received such an email and replied, and they meet in the end?

I don’t know where did he get my email, and how did he get the idea that I’m a girl. but it it’s really weird, you know if it was some IM or something like it, well maybe, but through email ????!!!!!

Also, does usual guys do that, as sometimes I feel that I’m an alien from outer space, who came to earth, and he is trying to understand human nature.

What do you think?

I Love /* */ and I hate #

What is wrong with multi-line comments? this is the question I’m asking myself right now, since I started programming I loved multi-line comments, (actually the comments you have to specify where do they end).
My first programming language was Pascal, they had comments like { my comments are here }, then C which I only knew about /* my comments are here */ and I never knew about
// my comments are here till the end of the line
until I learned C++, then Java, and PHP. They all have multi-line comments.
I’ve done work with Perl, and Bash before, and one of the reasons I hate to write Perl scripts was the
# comments till the end of the line
thing, yes I know that you can write multi-line comments as
# comment line 1
# comment line 2

but I just can’t stand it
Today, after hearing a lot about Ruby, (specially after the on Rails thing), well I thought, I should give it a try (given that you should learn a new language every year, and I didn’t do that this year). So I googled it, and damn, those # again, I hate them I really do, I can’t cope with them, I guess I have a psychological thing regarding these comments.
What am I wondering right now, what is really wrong with the multi-line comments? why new languages (except those which are C based) are abandoning multi-line comments, aren’t they cool anymore, or maybe there is some software engineering thing related to this issue.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH MULTI-LINE COMMENTS

University of Virginia Student Graduates in One Ye…

18-year-old David Banh recently graduated from the University of Virginia with a double major in Physics and Mathematics, and an education paid for almost entirely by scholarships. What’s truly amazing is that he did it in one year, bringing in 72 Advanced Placement credits, then taking 23 credits his fall semester, 37 credits his spring semester and 3 credits in the summer. His brief undergraduate career didn’t leave him much time to explore college, so he’s now working on his master’s degree.

more on the story

It’s really something, but is it really worth it, for me, I don’t think so, I just hope to get back to my old days at the university

Birthday Meme

While wasting some time on the Internet, I found this here and here, It kind of excited me.

Go to Wikipedia. In the Search box, type your birth month and day (but not year). List three events that happened on your birthday. List two important birthdays and one interesting death. Post this in your journal.

Three events:
1492Christopher Columbus lands in Cuba.
1868Thomas Edison applied for his first patent, the electric vote recorder.
1981 – The heavy metal band Metallica is founded in San Francisco. (I used to listen to this band, when I enjoyed Heavy Metal, I still listen to some of there songs)

Two birthdays:
1955Bill Gates, American software pioneer. (It doesn’t mean anything, I’m still an open source guy).
1967Julia Roberts, American actress. (Don’t you just love her)

One death:
1973Taha Hussein, Egyptian writer (b. 1889)

Kubuntu.de Protestwoche

To calrify the seriosness of the situation, kubuntu.de will be offline for one week beginning as from Monday, 10.04.2006 …

Kubuntu.de Started a Protest Week

This website, including the forum, the mailing lists and the respective IRC channels (#kubuntu-de and #kubuntu-de-team) has one aim: to support the community, to offer a platform to the users of Kubuntu and, last but not least, to boost the Kubuntu-project so as to make it an outstanding distribution.

I just recieved this note from LinuxToday, well it so sad to see an opensource project reaches this point, but I’m speachless here.
