The Things I Can Remember

Sheesh.

How many years has it been?

While taking Toni back to work after lunch today, I mentioned that I had another mail account at IUPUI on the CS department server I'll be using for my C class projects, and I should create a .forward file for that account.

!!

It just came out of my mouth without hesitation. How the hell did I remember that?

And then a few minutes ago, while logged into said CS server, I perused my home directory with ls -la, looked at my .profile with a cat .profile | more command, and then used vi to make my .forward file. I did need my vi reference card a couple of times, but still...

I haven't touched Unix in at least six years.

I'm not trying to brag - these are all simple task, anyway. I'm astounded more than anything. I hope concepts related to my coursework all continue to come back so easily.

As a good friend likes to say, "It's as easy as falling off a bicycle."

(-:

But I actually have trouble with that one - the only two times (since learning how to ride one) I've fallen off a bicycle were while not moving. I couldn't get out of the pedal clips. ;-)
