I went to a friend's house the other day and we played a game where we
had to go round making up fantastical stories about our imaginary
uncles. I thought I would see if people liked it here - the uncle thing
takes a bit of the competitive sting out of it. But then I get carried
away by it all anyway. Sorry. :( I guess 'real programmers' are a bit
like imaginary uncles.

I never used to like marketing. Now I'm working for a small company
doing electronics and computer stuff where the boss (who I like in other
ways) keeps selling things that don't exist yet and may not even be
physically possible to construct. This bugs me and I'm not sure what to
do about it.
