Liquid Egg Reassembler

(The post name was 100% inspired by the Reassembler post on this, Cross-blog pollination.)
We did a programmer’s pre-nup, an idea of Reassembler spawn to be something like his brillant* chessplayer’s pre-nup.
So how did this come about?
1. Derek had to bug me to check my e-mail.
2. Agreed a programmer’s pre-nup would be a keen idea.
3. Two or three weeks later, I finally sent some decent ideas.
4. Derek had to bug me to check my e-mail.
5. Looked at his BASIC code; looked fine. Sent my assembly code.
6. Derek had to bug me to check my e-mail.
7. Told Derek whatever he put for my bio should be fine.
8. Still have to check my e-mail.


I nearly missed the illustration. Hardee har.

Weird. I know this Derek is a chess expert, but you don’t have to put your man-crush out there for everyone to see.

Donnie, as in the Paula Bean?
Is this any indication on the code samples you saw?
Comment by Allen | 6 February 2008
@Derek: The goatee came out too thick.
@Mascot: Um…OK.
@Allen: Yes, THE Paula Bean! Too bad the joke’s been beaten to death so it’s not that funny now. I was more curious if anyone else would recognize it.

I think Mascot should bag the goatee and go straight for the “soul patch”… although back in a day when Zappa sported one, it was called a zappa.
Time to go jam in Joe’s garage.

The first time I saw the term “soul patch” was in NBA 2000, when you could customize your player’s looks. It seems like it’s for people who can’t decide whether they want facial hair or not.
Forgive me; I have no clue who this Zappa is.
Time to go hit up Wikipedia.

Let’s just say that Zappa is not a tazor made for Mainers

I saw Zappa live–as the concert went on the bass player gradually removed clothing items, and at the end was wearing only a diaper. While this didn’t impress me much, the musicianship was awesome.

No idea about Zappa? Ouch. That sound you just heard was me falling into later middle age.
Comment by Derek Slater | 7 February 2008
@Blunderprone: Thanks; I figured that much out.
@Wahrheit: I’m glad you went to the concert instead of me.
@Derek: Well, I’m fairly ignorant of music and such, so that’s part of it too.

Is Mascot related to John McCain? They both have grins that look like a mule eating briars.

They’re both bald, too, so you might be on something there.

Damn I needed the chessplayers prenup 25 years ago.
