Subject: The Frog Princess (no attribution)
A computer programmer happens across a frog in the road. The frog pipes
up, "I'm really a beautiful princess and if you kiss me, I'll stay with you
for a week". The programmer smiles and puts the frog in his pocket. A few
minutes later, the frog says, "OK, OK, if you kiss me, I'll give you great sex
for a week". The programmer nods and puts the frog back in his pocket. A few
minuets later, "Turn me back into a princess and I'll give you great sex for a
whole year!" The programmer smiles and walks on. Finally, the frog says,
"What's wrong with you? I've promised you great sex for a year from a
beautiful princess and you won't even kiss a frog?" "I'm a programmer," he
replies. "I don't have time for sex.... But a talking frog is pretty
neat."

them to write a preemptive multitasking OS?!
