Well, as you may have guessed, I/we didn’t win.. otherwise, I wouldn’t be here in Taiwan.. still.. anyhow, two people won, one down south and someone in Taipei.. a co-worker hit 4 out of 6 numbers (they play California ol’ skoo Lotto 6/49, pick 6, 1-49).. on our way to work this morning, the driver was talking about the lottery.. and he hit the nail on the head when he said “you buy a lottery ticket so you can dream”.. I had my car all picked out already too.. Mercedes Benz E55 (although I just read that when the new M5 comes out, MB is going to “surprise” BMW with their new E65)..

Funny thing today.. well, I’m working on setting up a way to establish pricing by tester models.. testers, as in, a machine designed and manufactured for the sole purpose of testing. So we’ve been floating around some emails when all of a sudden.. today, I receive an email related to this topic from a “new comer” to this project..

Subject: RE: PCR T & R and Testes Model

Testes.. as in plural of testis (testis?? hmm).. reminds me of my days when I used to do a lot of system testing.. I’d create a bunch of junk in the system and try to destroy the system.. anytime there was an opportunity to enter some free text (like a purchase order field or a description field), I’d enter “testes 1 2 3.. testes 1 2 3.. test tickle test tickle test tickle”.. most people never got it though :lol::cool:..
