Texas CS Dept., Austin, Texas Lines: 64 Ahem. Young man, I don't know what you are alluding to with all these Austin and Texas references, but allow me to make known to you the dangers of Paisley magic. . . What I want to know is, what's in it for us gals? (Or "nubile females," as I think the recipe called for.) I think all prospective interviewers should answer this quiz themselves: POOH'S EQUAL OPPORTUNITY OFFENDER QUIZ FOR MEN OF THE OPPOSITE GENDER 1) If a warm-blooded, enthusiastic woman were to breathe down my neck and nuzzle my earlobe while I was sitting at the terminal, I would: a) say, "Darling, couldn't you wait until the next compile?" b) lose control and attack the CRT c) logout so fast it would make your head spin and proceed with a different type of interfacing 2) The weather outside a) makes no difference to me; I haven't seen the light of day since I began this program and two new rogue games four weeks ago b) is perfect for taking my printouts outside so I can do a little debugging and maybe get a tan c) is so nice I'm going to find a girl to go skinny-dipping with 3) My favorite magazines are: a) I don't have time to read b) US NEWS & DUNGEON REPORT; Byte; Playboy c) True Confessions; National Lampoon; Vibrations 4) I plan to go to this party a) so I can talk to fellow hackers and learn the latest developments in rogue 5.2 b) so I can meet a couple of girls/attractive sheep and relieve my baser urges so I can go back to undistracted hacking c) to meet a wonderful girl with whom I can share all my interests besides hacking: wine-tasting, back-rubbing, philosophical speculation on the origins of the universe and of the two sexes, walking in the rain, and proper spelling and grammatical usage (which I haven't been able to try out until now because of the prosaic limitations of Fortran) If you answered one question with a or b, there's hope for you. If you answered more than one with a or b, you need serious help. If you answered two or more with c, send photograph and serious inquiries to Campaign to Make the World Go Out with a Bang, Not a Whimper c/o {ihnp4!} ut-sally!pooh And who says women can't be sexist too!
