Ahh.. cron jobs .... they always remind me of the tales of the Arabian Nights .....
The Sultan's court also relied heavily on the work of eunuchs .....

Those who would rely on Google, an admirable product in all other respects, as the definitive arbiter of the English language, are asking for trouble ....
A eunuch (YOONIK) is a male who has been castrated, Google could not possibly have made such a howling mistake, surely!
More than one, and you have what sounds very much like an Operating System!
I had no problems with cron jobs at all, the world needs scheduling, in fact I had quite a gay time with them on my last contract
I mean quite a merry time ... God Save The King!

Well...a man who is gay, is in essentially castrated ...since he can not have children...
So in a way google was right.
There was no definition....only search results that talked alot about gay men....

Eunuch and Gay are two very different words, Eunuchs were originally a sect from some religon in Africa, as I remember, and they Castrated themselves as an extreme method for garenteeing celebacy.
Gay means your a fag. and technicly, gay people could have children, they just choose not to...
