    This is my computer. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My computer is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life. Without me, my computer is useless. Without my computer, I am useless. I must use my computer true. I true. I must compute faster than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must outcompute him before he outcomputes me. I will. Before God, I swear this creed. My computer and myself are defenders of this country. We are masters of our enemy. We are the saviours of my life. So be it until there is no enemy, but peace. Amen.
Visio Rant: The new AutoConnect feature in Microsoft Visio 2007 Professional doesn't do exactly what you'd like.  Firstly, its unintuitive to turn on - requires a Tools | Options type of enabling, and it also requires a toolbar selection to enable it per-drawing.  Secondly, in UML drawings such as an Activity diagram, you want to modify which connector is being used.  E.g. use Control Flow between States or Action States, whereas the autoconnect puts a two sided generic 'connector' between the states.  This doesn't help because in the Activity diagram, you need to represent which direction the flow is proceeding in with the Control Flow or Object Flow connectors.  Feature request for Microsoft? Automatic connections are so much easier in Rational's eclipse based modelling tool (RSM/RSA).  In RSM the connectors change based on the objects you are connecting.  Seems obvious enough.
