Please take it easy hey
the firmy won't born in May
Rome not built in one day
lil needle not found in hay!
Hope that Monday or tomorrow
we may avoid past sorrow
little patience we must borrow
like a gal out picking yarrow
yet a suspect creep in
too pure and clear to be seen
on a blind broken screen
of the dev called bookeen

No offense meant. Really. Just trying to install a new joke.
Zero. If you have any french programmers, it never gets finished.

One. If you're Bookeen, you can't afford more then one.

Two. One to program and one to figure out how long it'll take.

Three. One to program and two to go on holidays.

Four. One to program, one to find excuses why it's not finished yet and two to play chess (over the internet).

Five. One to program, one to pacify the suits and three to play Unreal Tournament.

Six. Oh, come on... There ain't no such thing as six french programmers...

(Sorry, I couldn't resist... Nothing particularly against french programmers! Just change "french" to any nationality you want...)

If Napoleon Bonaparte ever needed a reason to invade Austria ...

Oh, and you forgot

Seven. Three to found a new labour union and the other four going into strike immediately afterwards.

Ten.
One to hold the mouse firmly and the others to move the table.

@ EowynCarter: if the scheduled German reader "txtr" ever should suffer from some taunting or sarcasm, I'll be the first to laugh at jokes about German programmers.

Enjoy the savoir vivre of La Grande Nation, open a bottle of Bordeaux wine and relax, chère liseuse.

Hi EowynCarter,

let me first tell you, that absolutely nobody here wanted to make fun of you and/or the French; let alone tried to insult you. Come on, you must've that kind of jokes in your country as well - making fun of Belgians or Basques or the Dutch or... (e.g. inhabitants of some part of your country or a neighbouring one)?!

OK, maybe you think that this is not funny... But I'm sure you are generous enough, to let the others have their fun. And partly this funmaking is also showing some kind of special affection for the ones we're making fun of (it's not "we h*te you, you st*pid j*rks". it's "look how different they are from us, they even do this...").

BTW: Who can honestly say, he's not just loving the french cuisine, wine, literature, music, cities, landscape, language, history, girls/men etc.?!

I hope that a firmware upgrade to humor sense and levity too will be released.

We need also cheap frivolity sometimes or - better - bagatelles...

I am french canadian and I find them funny!!!!

I always thought that "teasing" was the ultimate Honor!!!

A little sense of humor goes a long way... I bet that the people at Bookeen read those jokes and laugh... Maybe they laugh so much that they do not have time to work at the firmware update...

Regards,

Georges

I think I've finally figured out Bookeen's calendar....they are on the same calendar as the Lord Almighty!

Quote:
"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day." (2 Peter 3:8 (niv))
So the question is not next Monday of which week/month/year, but next Monday of which millennium?
