Software developers are stumpy fat guys

Shirt

Well, that’s what you’d have to believe judging by the shirts that were handed out today at the Microsoft launch. I mean, just look at this thing on me, it’s freakin huge! There is easily enough room for one-and-a-half of me in there. And that was the smallest size that they made them (XL); I’m not sure exactly how big they went to.

The saddest part is that it’s one of the better shirts that I’ve got from an event; the design on the front is palatable and on the back it looks like a concert tour shirt (which was kind-of the theme for the whole event).

Does anyone want it?

In happier news though, I found a gift voucher for Amazon in my pile of unprocessed mail today – a birthday present from my only nephew Owen! What a legend, not even 6 months old and already he has my tastes down pat. And in other happy news, soon I’ll be the proud owner of another new toy
