shell

A shell is the command processor interface. The command processor is the program that executes operating system commands. The shell, therefore, is the part of the command processor that accepts commands. After verifying that the commands are valid, the shell sends them to another part of the command processor to be executed.

When Windows failed to boot, I needed to use a DOS shell.

2004

Hopefully the year Van Halen will finally release some new material.

It would be kick ass if Van Halen released a new album in 2004.

wildflowers

One of Tom Petty's best album to date. "Wildflowers" was released in late 1994, and became an instant hit album. The album contained the songs "You Don't Know How It Feels", "Honey Bee", "You Wreck Me", "It's Good to be King", "Wildflowers", "House in the Woods", and many other great songs.

Some Tom Petty fans feel "Wildflowers" was Tom Pety's last great album.

Discover

A credit card which most stores do NOT accept. Discover usually has a high credit limit.

I went to the audio/video store to buy a plasma tv, and the store wouldn't take my Discover card.

GetMem

GetMem() is the Turbo Pascal/Delphi equivalent to C/C++'s malloc() function; which is used for dynamic memory allocation in computer programming.

When the C programmer whipped out malloc(), the Pascal programmer whipped out GetMem() in defense.
