    A noble cause, I wish thee luck !

    PS: Arrrgh, the batteries inside my favourite flashlight have leaked ! Any thought on how I can clean that mess and salvage it ? I like because it's a frontal one, I've both hand free when I'm using it.

    Close, but this would have been playable as a standalone game, as we kids were not allowed anywhere near the computer with the (then) screaming fast 1600 baud modem.

    On wednesday night, my car broke down. Just heard back from the garage. I wont go into the details, but it's £350 to fix.

    Given that i've had no work and i've got no money, this is not good.

    The protest got hijacked by the antifa-movements (I'm anti-fascist, but these fruitcakes label you as a fascist if you dare to vote.) Teargas, mounted police did some charges, etc. fun fun :D

    @Stef. NetHack is a standalone game. The net in the title refers to the way it was developed: through USENET.

    I love chinatown ! I bought 125gr of Fujian oolong tea! It's good, and I mean goooood . You can't beat China when it comes to tea. At least now I can drink proper tea not the crap they sell at my university.

    Home sick today. Strep-throat. And I pulled a nice rack of beef ribs out of my freezer last night too. Just my luck. Stuck with Chicken Noodle soup instead. When you don't eat alot of salt, your reallize just how bad canned soup really is.

    [​IMG] Well the wibbleage was certainly popular :lol:

    I shall have to post scientific fact more often!

    Also in reference to the dictionary entries that disagreed with my information, wibbleage is a little understood concept that is often taken out of context - such as the colloquial use of 'Random' which is often misplaced in the teenage vocabulary to replace an unusual occurance rather than an impartial selection from a predetermined range :p

    In related news my friend is worried as she had a biology exam and one of the questions she simply put "HOW DO I SCIENCE?" after crossing out several answers she presumed incorrect :lol:

    She also drew pictures for her tutor including a robotic unicorn. Wish I had exams :(

    Ashley demanded 'Empire Strikes Back' on this morning because he has a toy Snow Speeder and an AT-AT.

    The wind here has been crazy for the past 3 or 4 days in a row... everything that isn't nailed down is swirling up in the air. Very abnormal.

    Are there a lot of short people running round and singing a 'Ding-Dong' song?

    The greatest invention of mankind is toilet paper.

    :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

    How can somebody bury themselves so deep in **** that they're never going to get themselves out again but STILL keep digging without the slightest clue that they've ruined their reputation as a sensible person forever? Dear God... :doh::doh::doh:

    (I'm sure if Kitrax's watching, he's getting a kick out of what it took for me to make a Picard smiley.)

    [​IMG] I find the most useful method of dealing with those with hyperactice shovels is an improptu drinking game. It is generally a more anjoyable and productive method of reaching the state of bleary eyed confusion and screaming pain within the cranium.

    That or tranquiliser darts via html would be good.
