The reason I dont blog much in the evenings is....

by Old-Nick @ 2008-02-26 - 22:17:31

THIS F**KING COMPUTER! its is an electronic slug of a thing, low on virtual memory (as it keeps telling me) and my "broad band" connection tricles through like golden syrup through a fine wire mesh.

I cant look at any posts that don't appear on the first page as it times out when I try, I have to make two or three attempts at commenting on friends posts for the same reason, and I cannot even edit my profile to correct the spelling of "Amicable"
(would you believe I am getting my spelling checked by people from miles and miles away, although she must be blind as she said she thought I was cute as well)

Watching any you tube vid put up by anyone is a total waste of time unless you want to hear the song in loads of 1.5 second snatches every 3 seconds, and frankly I am VERY ANGRY!

If I had not had to replace my digital camera I would have spent that xmas money on a new pc with out monitor and such, just to have something a bit more speedy to blog on. But no, I had to go loose my camera. Daft daft bugger.

And I am damn sure that this post will not go up as it will time out as I am doing it. LLWNT!

(and those of you of a technical inclination regarding computers - please dont bother with the advice and the glavin, I wont understand and I dont care. As soon as some money comes up, I am taking a stroll throuhg the inards of this pc with a huge lump hammer and starting my trip on the outside.)

At least I have some red wine!

And rest.

:)

Oh Phoenix!!!!!!!

Wanna buy some in ear headphones? Specialy designed for you?

Yes folks, much to my annoyance the left earpiece in my MP3 players earphones has died! Bugger, another bloody bit of shopping to do!

The placing of the lunch hour.

What do you do?

Do you put it in the middle of your day so that morning and afternoon are about the same length, or do you have it a bit later so the post lunch working day is shorter than the pre lunch span?

Me, since moving back here I tend to hang on till 13.00 before going, which makes the afternoon fly by seeing as I leave at 16.00.

:wave:

Early night rubbish.

by Old-Nick @ 2008-02-26 - 11:41:18

I did you know, I got an early night last night. Well early for me, I was in bed before midnight and sober to boot.

So why do I feel so shite this morning? Why have the faeries of sleep taken the bags from under my eyes and polished my brain to a sparkling crystal razor of wit? Why is the fact that the IT guy is yakking away in the server room next to me with the door open making me want to go ram his head into a bank of electrical stuff (that’s a technical term for whatever all the spaghetti and flashing light stuff in there is)

I think I may have to stay up late tonight just to reset myself to normal.

:zz:

Time to change your slogan guys.

by Old-Nick @ 2008-02-26 - 10:56:49

As some of you will no I am not a big fan of sport. Except F1 of course – yes, I do get up in the middle of the bloody night to watch the qualifying even!

Looking at the times displayed in the last full on testing session, it is obvious (or appears to be, as you never know what these sneaky F1 teams are doing) that McLaren and Ferrari are going to be the fastest two teams again.

But down the slow end things look like they are going to change. Because the slowest two cars were the Hondas. OK there was one car slower than them, but it was a bit sick on the day and not really giving it’s best.

Honda’s slogan is at the moment “The Power of Dreams” or some such rubbish. I think in Jenson Buttons case it should be changed to “The Power to rob you of your dreams”

Oh well.

:roll:
