Freebsd Fortunes 4

I've been on a diet for two weeks and all I've lost is two weeks.

I've been on this lonely road so long,
Does anybody know where it goes,
I remember last time the signs pointed home,
A month ago.
                -- Carpenters, "Road Ode"

I've been there.

I've built a better model than the one at Data General
For data bases vegetable, animal, and mineral
My OS handles CPUs with multiplexed duality;
My PL/1 compiler shows impressive functionality.
My storage system's better than magnetic core polarity,
You never have to bother checking out a bit for parity;
There isn't any reason to install non-static floor matting;
My disk drive has capacity for variable formatting.

I feel compelled to mention what I know to be a gloating point:
There's lots of room in memory for variables floating-point,
Which shows for input vegetable, animal, and mineral
I've built a better model than the one at Data General.

                   "Modern Major General")

I've finally learned what "upward compatible" means.
It means we get to keep all our old mistakes.
                -- Dennie van Tassel

I've given up reading books; I find it takes my mind off myself.

I've got a very bad feeling about this.
                -- Han Solo

I've got all the money I'll ever need if I die by 4 o'clock.
                -- Henny Youngman

I've got some powdered water, but I don't know what to add.
                -- Stephen Wright

I've had a perfectly wonderful evening.  But this wasn't it.
