Computers have a secret life that you should know about. How do I know? I am a computer science teacher in a small midwestern college. Before I began teaching, I was a practitioner (programmer, analyst, etc.) from my very early years. Computers are fun, but sneaky. This blog may also get comments about religion, politics, and other subjects, as I feel the urge.

Best screenplay: Her, about a man who falls in love with his operating system.
What did I tell you?
One of my high school girlfriends had a deep and meaningful relationship with ELIZA, a BASIC program that ran on my 16K TRS-80. She said it understood her a lot better than I did. On the other hand, Siri can never quite figure out what I'm talking about.
