    AS> Can you please review my translation into English of the   
    AS> following little joke:   
      
    AS> A programmer's mother asks her son: "Will you please go to   
    AS> the drugstore and buy us some buns? And if they happen to   
    AS> have eggs, then take ten." The programmer enters the   
    AS> drugstore and says to the clerk:   
      
    AS> -- Have you eggs?   
    AS> -- We sure do, sir.   
    AS> -- Ten buns, please.   
      
   I think that almost perfectly says what the author is trying to convey.
