Procrastinating with pointless polls

Okay, let's try this poll thing again, hopefully with less Broken this time. Radio buttons because what fun is a religious war if you aren't forced to pick a specific side?

[Poll #1346515]

I am embracing the power of “and”, at least to the limits of freedom.

Duran Duran, geez.

I think DD probably predates the notion of a "boy band" by a few years, but you could apply the label. In fact, I could give you a good argument that the prototypical boy band was The Beatles....

no... they actually played instruments

NOT a 'boy band'!! Totally different league!

Perhaps, but then Herman's Hermits applies, I think.

Tee hee!

They are not a "boy band." They played their own instruments, for one thing.

Although they were damned young when they started.

Editors... I'm loving Pico. =)

I use notepad ++ on my computer at work, and haven't found a good text editor for the mac yet.

I still use TCL as a scripting language. But then again, I'm not normal. Neither are you.

You heathen, you left out OpenBSD as a desktop option! Heck, you left out all the BSDs.

Just for that, I am forging a slightly critical email from you to Theo De Raadt.

Textpad, bash & does Queen count as a boy band?

Oh, and Access vs. SQL Server.

I should clarify that in comparing TV shows to movie trilogies, and then listing Star Wars as a movie trilogy, I of course meant Episodes IV, V, and VI. Episodes I, II, and III are a completely separate Star Wars trilogy that should arguably never have been made.

I was so tempted by the magnetized needle and a steady hand, and you entirely stumped me with the boy bands question.

As for scripts....well, I hear Ruby is awfully nice, but haven't had a chance to pick it up yet. I use both PHP and Perl without a real preference.
