Now I'm no programer but one thing that interested me was that at Birmingham Uni. on their MSc in Computer Science, including a fair bit of programing all the students were given PCs whilst all the lecturers used Macs.  I know this because a mate of mine did the course with his G4 and he said h...

Yeah Darkshine you the Camera Daddy no doubt.  What cam do you use?  That Piccadilly one is great you need to submit that via an agency or such.  I've got my Digi but I was thinking of getting one of the nice old SLRs that you can get cheap nowadays to replace my Zenit 12XP which died...

No I'll grant you neither side played sparklingly well but it was still a tense game which made it exciting.  As for England's tries, well you're right they were correctly disallowed but they did also have one try that they got away with where there was more than a hint of offside from the scru...

Well, we gave England plenty of credit for winning the World Cup and the English basked in the glory until...well now actually.  HURRAH!  England 13, Ireland 19 at fortress Twickenham.  It was a cracking game and we deserved the victory and we will proably now go on to lose to the blo...

Good beer...Australia...you're shitting me right?

Ah the Steve Wozniak years...happy days.

Flahavan's porridge oats and honey nut shredded wheat (I know call me a fibre devient, but I got to about 28 and for some reason I got this voice that said "Mmmm eat shredded wheat.")

Why does it not surprise me that Jackmn is a coffee man?!

Tea is best, coffee is the devil's work!

An interesting list stews, glad to see that there's thought gone into it and I think you'd have some good scientific discussions going on.  

I find such a list often quite revealing about the interests of a person.  I hope you enjoyed thinking about yours as I did.

Quote: from The cat on 12:24 pm on Feb. 29, 2004[br]Who loves idiots except the idiots themselves? You're right, Yeltsin was far AWAY from communism. That's true Yeltsin was a free marketeer at heart and as long as the price of booze came down he was happy. My grandmothers remeber the communism as ...

Quote: from Darkshine on 10:57 pm on Mar. 1, 2004[br]My car carries hundreds of people, and travels underground, its big, and red, blue and white.

It's the Northern line.

So in the spirit of questioning topics I thought I'd rehash one that has doubtless been done before but not that I remember.  Which 10 people would you choose to spend eternity with.  They can be alive or dead and in whatever format you please. Mine would be the following: John Pilger -A v...

Quote: from Icepick on 3:27 pm on Feb. 27, 2004[br]I'm a student for another year and a half until I finish my degree, then I plan on sleeping even more than I do now and finding some way of getting paid for it. I think I just found the next best thing.  Get a job in the University's Computing...

The Cat...interested observer or Grand Inquisitor?!!

Now he knows what country we all live in and what cars we drive it can only be a matter of time before the men in sunglasses arrive to pick us up!

This seems an appropriate moment to wade in and declare that I have a Skoda.  It's an Octavia Estate 1.9 TDi SLX and I think it's quite snazzy (It's a rebadged Audi actually)  I bought it off my Mother who now lives in London so doesn't drive so much.  I had a Renault Megane turbo die...

Quote: from Adriac on 4:29 am on Feb. 26, 2004[br] Not that I wouldn't rather a G5 and a coupla huge cinema displays, but I'm not gonna pass up Splinter Cell just because I feel Macs are better. You could always cut off your right hand to the dark-side and buy VPC rather than become the Emperor's s...
