To All You Girls Out There

Question

Would any of you girls (if your name were Carlene) be impressed by this program? Compile and run it. You'll have to make the window larger when it first starts up, though. (BTW, I am Jared.)
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Carlene implements ActionListener
  JLabel label = new JLabel();
  int numClicks = 0;
  public Component createComponents()
    JPanel panel = new JPanel();
    JButton button = new JButton("Find out who Jared likes!");
    button.addActionListener(this);
    panel.add(button);
    panel.add(label);
    return panel;
  public static void createAndShowGUI()
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Jared's Crush");
    Carlene carlene = new Carlene();
    Component components = carlene.createComponents();
    frame.getContentPane().add(components, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    frame.pack();
    frame.setVisible(true);
  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
    numClicks++;
    switch(numClicks)
      case 1: label.setText("C------"); break;
      case 2: label.setText("Ca-----"); break;
      case 3: label.setText("Car----"); break;
      case 4: label.setText("Carl---"); break;
      case 5: label.setText("Carle--"); break;
      case 6: label.setText("Carlen-"); break;
      case 7: label.setText("Carlene"); break;
  public static void main(String[] args)
    javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()
      public void run()
        createAndShowGUI();
}

Answer 1

I was impressed by a program that split and load-balanced a povray rendering job across 60 Sparc machines once to cut a 6-7 hour job down to less than 20 minutes. I was also impressed by another program that monitored sub-atomic particles emitted during chemical reactions.
Neither was Java, and neither of these impressive programs helped the guy get me in the end, mind you
(I somehow ended up with a VB programmer?!?)
