  • Pens Update

    by

    in

    A lot of people have been asking about the pens situation. It was resolved quickly and peacefully, without injury to any hostages (froggy, purr purr and oink) or damage to property. All pens were found concealed behind the living room door as part of an amnesty agreement.

  • Concealed Weapons

    in

    Kim’s interrogating Jack as to the whereabouts of 2 coloured pens. They’ve been counted out, and they need to be counted back in again. It’s like a handgun has gone missing, concealed somewhere for use in a future premeditated crime. “Where are those pens? What have you done with them? Are they upstairs? You’re not…

  • Meat & Cancer Risks

    by

    in

    The results of a new, very large sample (300,000 people, of which 1,330 developed bowel cancer) studying dietary habits and cancer again suggests we should eat a balanced diet. But the generalised nuances of the stats are interesting: – increase your bowel cancer risk by eating red meat too regularly – increase your bowel cancer…

  • So close

    by

    in

    Ooooh – so close. We’ve had our house in Cardiff on the market since November or December, and we’ve had viewings but no offers. Our estate agents inform us that our most recent viewer (Monday), was about to put an offer in to buy, but the buyer for his property pulled out the next day.…

  • Second Office

    by

    in

    This is my office this morning. It’s about 400m from my normal office and has sand, an ocean and no roof. Much nicer. I have a laptop, a GPRS data connection and lots of sun. I might go for a paddle later.

  • Obese Homer

    by

    in

    LOL! After my earlier post SkyOne played the Simpsons episode where Homer gorges himself to reach the weight of 300lbs so he can work from home with a disability benefit. That’s what I’m talking ’bout. You can’t write this stuff. Oh, and if you need to spend the evening swapping out the hard disk in…

  • It’s Salmon-time

    by

    in

    I’m feeling the risk of becoming like the salmon again. Breathe and count to ten. Not helping. OK, you’ve probably not noticed the seamless move of this website off-site to a new server. Good eh? I was getting a bit panicky about the age of my hard disks and the weakness of my backup solution,…

  • Aura

    by

    in

    Jo says my aura has altered so as to affect the computers around me. Evidence for this? – My iBook died last night. – My spare PC (which I’m now lowered to using as my main work station) was monkeying around today. – Jo’s PC (same office) was playing up today. (But hey, it usually…

  • Dead iBook

    by

    in

    I spoke too soon. My iBook just died. This is because of the crash on Wednesday. (I hadn’t used it all weekend). Shit. I’m really pissed off now.

  • ROTS

    in

    I really, really enjoyed Revenge of the Sith last night. Some people like it, some people don’t (Kim fell asleep – well, they *were* comfy chairs). I for one was very nervous before the start, and was never able to relax back into my chair. I don’t understand why so many people go to see…
