True story:
My best friend was a computer programmer in the pre-Microsoft days. I was reviewing his code for a program he was writing for the local community college that would track student statistics.
He had a subroutine to count the chronically unemployed. The start of that subroutine was a REM statement "...I jus' want to bang on de drum all day."
