If I get a NeXt machine, (i.e. if 1: $6500 dollars appears in my pocket
out of nowhere or 2: NeXt gives me one {I'll trade work for machine, need a
ray tracer, NeXt?} ) one of the first things I'll do is wire the book of
quotations and the works of shakespeare to the thesaurus in such a way that
you can give it any subject and it will give you an appropriate quote. I.e
give it "Dog" and you get a quote about dogs. After that, who needs fortune?
NeXt Box% "What do you wish to work on today, oh master?"
Me% "Women"
NeXt Box% "Women are Evil, that's why they're so much fun. -PTW"
