Sometimes I fear my C[++] bashing is grossly insufficient. I feel I'm 
crying wolf all over town, when I should cry crocodile.


(I'm not scared of wolves. We actually have wolves around here. But in 
1973 I was in Konstanz, Germany, studying the language, and somebody had 
an 18 inch baby crocodile on the campus lawn, tethered to a tree. You'd 
never guess what scare and panic the reptile caused. It could run as 
fast as a human, and its jaws were half its length. And it sure wasn't 
waiting for people to come and cuddle it.)
