Some of us just groan and move on, like a bad joke.


But, let's turn the tables and look at some names of proprietary 
software....

"Microsoft Visual Studio".  This is a software package for producing 
home movies.

"Lotus 123".  It looks like a pre-school educational program.  
Something to do with counting.

oh...  but "Lotus" is a car!  It must be a game, something to do with 
auto racing.

And then there is "Outlook".  Is that a fortune telling program?


But, the real reason I came here is that I was looking for a program 
to manage recipes, that would help me spice-up my lousy cooking.  
"Spice" is a program for the kitchen, isn't it????


(sorry .... I couldn't resist.)
