One of my personal favorites is The Story of Mel: http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/mel.html http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/mel.html

  Am I missing something, or is that a story that glorifies a programmer who refused to listen to customer requirements and wrote obfuscated, unmaintainable code?

    Well I suppose there's more than one way to read it. You could try reading it again with your irony button switched on.

      I suppose. I guess I just didn't find it funny, ironic or serious.

    "with your irony button switched on" Or your romance button. Ranching is all about moving cows from pasture A to pasture B; looking out for disease; and making sure animals have enough to eat. Wild west stories are still fun.
