    I'm not sure this would be a good thing for me to keep in my car, though I do want one. I just fear I'd take joy in making it frown. God help me and it if it has a "scared" emote. I have to commute about 60 miles a day through/around (w/e works that day) DC to Virginia (from MD) and it can be a pretty harrowing experience when it isn't moving 5mph...

    And for the past week we've had rain... if there is one thing MD drivers can not handle, it's weather.

    The money you spent on tuition was to prevent sentences like that first one. Where's the independent clause? #opentechnologycourses

    Unfortunately, that little piece of paper known as a degree is far more valuable than the knowledge you gained while obtaining it. #opentechnologycourses

    @PurpleMonkeyDishwasher: You forgot cout and cin operators, and I don't see the point to it considering it's answered in the article. #opentechnologycourses

    @spannu: For some reason, the operators do not show up. I'm guessing because of the HTML embedding capability of the comments.

    And I was just making a joke, I realize they are free courses and that's pretty sweet. #opentechnologycourses

    Besides, the cin and cout classes always work with standard member functions if you want to make your reference even more obscure. #opentechnologycourses
