Dear Taichung Happiers:

Cooking his passion with great enjoyment, and perfectly aligning it with his job, Kevin is a role model who will lead us flying on the “cloud” again (The previous one is 20121229 article). It is hoped that Taichung Happiers can systematically learn something about computing from the articles Kevin offered. Also, our passion is the fuel for flying around, so you are forever welcome to forward our weekly article as far and wide as possible.

Enjoy the following computer joke as a warm-up for tomorrow’s meeting:

While Jack waited at the airport to board his plane, he noticed a computer scale that would give your weight and a fortune. He dropped a quarter in the slot, and the computer screen displayed: “You weigh 195 pounds, you are married and you’re on your way to San Diego.” Jack stood there dumbfounded.

Another man put in a quarter and the computer read: “You weigh 184 pounds, you’re divorced, and you’re on your way to Chicago.” Jack said to the man, “Are you divorced and on our way to Chicago?” “Yes.”, replied the man.

Jack was amazed. Then he rushed to the men’s room, changed his clothes and put on dark glasses. He went to the machine again. The computer read: “You still weigh 195 pounds, you’re still married, and you just missed your plane to San Diego.”
