[Jesus Antonio Santos Giraldo]

Vu Pham escribi?:
>>Twas the Night Before Implementation
>>
>>Twas the Night Before Implementation, and all through the 
>>house not a program was working, not even a browse.
>>The programmers hung by their tubes in despair, with hopes 
>>that a miracle soon would be there.
>>
>>The users were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions 
>>of enhancements danced in their heads.
>>When out of the elevator arose such a clatter, I sprang from 
>>my desk to see what was the matter.
>>
>>And what to my wandering eyes should appear but a super 
>>programmer (with a six pack of beer).
>>His resume glowed with experience so rare, he turned out 
>>great code with a bit pushers flair.
>>
>>More rapid than engines, his programs they came, and he 
>>whistled and shouted and called them by name:
>>"On Update! On Add! On Inquiry! On Delete!
>>On Batch Job! On Closing! On Functions Complete!"
>>
>>His eyes were glazed over, fingers nimble and lean, from 
>>weekends and nights spent in front of a screen.
>>A wink of his eye and a twist of his head soon gave me to 
>>know that I had nothing to dread.
>>
>>He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, turning 
>>specs into code, then turned with a jerk, and laying his 
>>finger upon the "enter" key, the system came up and worked perfectly.
>>
>>The updates updated, the deletes they deleted, the inquires 
>>inquired and the closings completed.
>>He tested each program and tested each call, with nary an 
>>UAE, all had gone well.
>>
>>The system was finished, the tests were concluded, the users 
>>last changes were even included.
>>And the user exclaimed with a snarl and a taunt, "Its just 
>>what I asked for, BUT ITS NOT WHAT I WANT!"
