What? Surely she has a 'honeydo' list! And if you weren't trying to get
that 286 to do what you wanted...

Mrs. Worm writes me a fresh list a few times a week. I'm not a fan of them.

I was away this week and thought I'd have a look at the code again while on the plane. Thankfully I had left the tab open with the list of int 21h operations. Sadly the top level page doesn't tell you what the parameters or the return values are... so I could have done with a one-pager!

My wife would be very surprised!

Heh... well... don't expect us to cherry her for free :)

You what?

Oh.. don't be upset.. all I meant is that it is your job to surprise her :)
but that should not be based on your coding skills.. this is where you should keep surprising us.

rest is teasing... apparently without right sense of humor.

Sorry, couldn't resist!

Hi, hollowone.

No offence taken at all, no need to apologise. I'm just not familiar with what it means to "cherry" someone's wife... possibly it's a regional thing? You seem to be a friendly guy, though, so I assumed it wasn't rude.

Possibly my response of "you what?" didn't translate, either. Was meant to be a jovial response to a double entendre but probably came off aggressive :\ Apologies if so.

Hi, Cougar428.

Soon... right after those two youtube videos I've been promising to do for the last year and once all the stuff on my wife's list has been done!

Hi Mary! I have a 386SX/16 that I use for business apps, but I never
got a network card for it, so I don't use it to connect.

Kudos to you! I skipped the 286, went from an 8088 directly to a 386.

Have a great day!

All good, my "cherry" was a typo, should be cheer :) either way.. I did not want to annoy.. just being little ironic which is my sense of humor that puts me into troubles from time to time.

Honestly not a problem. I'm a guy who expresses friendship by poking fun at my friends and expecting the same in return - more than a few times I've made the mistake of being "friendly" to someone in this way before they appreciate that I'm joking.
