Yep, I learned that one too.

I've not really played the game for a few years, I was never great at
it but did win now and again.
I've been trying to teach the wife how to play it(she's become a bit
obsessed with it) and as I'm not a good teacher I thought it might
help her learn the game quicker.

We always sang in Fortran.

I had to make a bad pun because I have lost too much Latin to understand
the quotes :-)

Well, I've got to admit that's on my level, and it gave me a chuckle.

I have suspected for some time that Hearts on Windows 7 cheats. Yesterday, I proved it. I was well on my way to shooting the moon, having garnered all by the J of Hearts. On the last hand, I played Queen of Spades, but North took me with the jack! Huh!!!!!

Awhile back, someone asked why anyone would want to open all hands to play and was incredulous at why anyone would want to do that. Answer: to check when the game cheats!
