    My cats hate books

    Nah, she is 13 this year we think. She was a rescue cat, although how anyone could give away such a sweet little cat as that I will never know. She is very gentle; never having even scratched either of us since she has lived with us; although she did pee on the floor once and only once when my...

    My cats hate books

    I have proof that they are anti-intellectual. Exhibit A: Get away from the computer and look at me!! Exhibit B: Well, now I have his attention, what shall I do?? Exhibit C: I know! I'll have a bit of a wash...... Sorry about the size of the piccies. If they are too much, I will take...

    Iraqi crisis explained...

    From the Giver, or Flagreen as he is more commonly known, that is very amusing. So Bill, do you actually have any opinions about Iraq that you would care to post under your name? It is nice and easy to file all of your 'Giver' opinions under the 'highly amusing and oh-so very clever windup'...

    Most evil software company

    I dunno. I started on the Net on 1994. I found the experience a little difficult to get into at first. There was a certain 'lack of a point' back then. Despite moronic spammers, which can actually have quite a charm of their own under some circumstances, I prefer the Net (or information...

    Space Shuttle Columbia Lost During Reentry

    I just found this release of the mission control data. At 0853, there is a loss of temperature sensors in hydraulics systems in the trailing edge of the left wing. At 0856, sensors in the left main gear tyre-wheel well report a temperature increase. At 0858, three temperature sensors on the...

    Space Shuttle Columbia Lost During Reentry

    I don't think these guys were alive for very long after the problems started. I have just seen the crash footage all of the way through. The first thing that you notice is two small white specks that fly off of the main vapour trail. I reckon that was a structural failure. Either one of the...

    Re:Intel Builds In More Built In Obsolescence

    This statement is incorrect. Intel designed socket 370 for PPGA Celerons. The Intel i810DC100 as it first came out did not support the Coppermine core. That was left to the i810e which also did 133FSB as well. As time went on, Intel introduced later steppings of the i810 which introduced...

    A revelation!

    Well, I finally dumped my 'experimental' IDE RAID0 C drive. It was a pair of 30Gb GXP 75s. Yeah, I know I know! I just could not be arsed to muck around with it, but I have been living on borrowed time for too long now. I finally got round to 'home testing' a new Fujitsu MAP series 36GB 10K...

    This is incorrect. There are two armed response units for the whole of my area. They are both cars, and have two officers in each. No vans, no SWAT teams. They are never 'just minutes away'. Have you seen the traffic in my part of the world???

    Erm, very nicely thanks for asking. I have never actually looked at or held a real working (i.e. one that can fire live rounds) gun before in my life. I don't know many people here that have. No one I know is unhappy about that either. I don't recall ever hearing anyone complain about their...

    article by Woody Harrelson; his take on Iraq & war.

    Well. The last three three were a bit obvious, but The Giver is nearly flawless. It is only recently that his statements have been getting a bit suspicious (not to mention insulting! :( ) I am both impressed and scared at the same time!!

    How many computers do you have? and Why?

    I have a P4 2.4B at home. I also have a Tyan dual PIII 1ghz mobo with 1GB ECC SDRAM knocking around. I am toying with the idea of building a sytem, but I have a definite dose of can't-be-arseditis. I may sell it.

    I cannot beat Dell in the budget segment.

    I've been up against Dell for years. In the server and workstation segment they are useless. I only occasionly lose a deal and that is normally because of an incompentent or fat and lazy civil servant who would far rather pay an American company more money for their PC than buy from a local...

    Anti SUV site

    Speaking as someone who does pay $5 a gallon for petrol and some I think that is the only way to stop the gas-guzzlers. I hate paying it, but it sure as hell makes you think about what car to buy. We also pay a graduated car tax on new cars depending on their emissions. Another cool idea...
