Freebsd Fortunes 6

There be sober men a'plenty, and drunkards barely twenty; there are men
of over ninety who have never yet kissed a girl.  But give me the rambling
rover, from Orkney down to Dover, we will roam the whole world over, and
together we'll face the world.
                -- Andy Stewart, "After the Hush"

There but for the grace of God, goes God.
                -- Winston Churchill, speaking of Sir Stafford Cripps.

There can be no daily democracy without daily citizenship.
                -- Ralph Nader

There cannot be a crisis next week.  My schedule is already full.
                -- Henry Kissinger

There comes a time in the affairs of a man when he
has to take the bull by the tail and face the situation.
                -- W.C. Fields

There comes a time to stop being angry.
                -- A Small Circle of Friends

There exist tasks which cannot be done
by more than 10 men or fewer than 100.
                -- Steele's Law

There goes the good time that was had by all.
                -- Bette Davis, remarking on a passing starlet

There has also been some work to allow the interesting use of macro names.
For example, if you wanted all of your "creat()" calls to include read
permissions for everyone, you could say

        #define creat(file, mode)      creat(file, mode | 0444)

        I would recommend against this kind of thing in general, since it
hides the changed semantics of "creat()" in a macro, potentially far away
from its uses.
        To allow this use of macros, the preprocessor uses a process that
is worth describing, if for no other reason than that we get to use one of
the more amusing terms introduced into the C lexicon.  While a macro is
being expanded, it is temporarily undefined, and any recurrence of the macro
name is "painted blue" -- I kid you not, this is the official terminology
-- so that in future scans of the text the macro will not be expanded
recursively.  (I do not know why the color blue was chosen; I'm sure it
was the result of a long debate, spread over several meetings.)

There has been a little distress selling on the stock exchange.
