like this guy: "Kandis Teilhet, my wife, was there every step of the way to give me the strength to persevere and finish this work. Words cannot express my love for you.

Patrick and Nicholas Teilhet, my two sons, made the rough patches smooth. I couldn't wish for two better sons.

Jim Barton, a longtime friend, provided solid feedback, great ideas, and pointed out errors that I would have otherwise missed."



i guess it was bad that the 'rough draft' of the book came, for some reason i thought i didn't have to keep reading.....

"Occurin the Filesystem"

this is what i thought programming looked like when i was little:
