Some things I agree with
(or not as the case may be)

Sunday, November 24 Christmas is rolling ever-nearer... And I don't really look forward to it that much. I think that some (hell, most of the) enjoyment of Christmas and the season in general has been removed from us by the sheer, unbridled materialism that companies are toting to us via adverts for "buy this buy that for Christmas". They make the whole thing seem like just another big shopping season. And the weather sucks. I hate that too. And it gets dark at 3:45pm. That REALLY sucks... I think I might have SAD... (that's Seasonal Affective Disorder for those not in the know) or "Winterblues" as it's sometimes called. For more info: click here for Google's results of "SAD symptoms" (GOD I love Google. How did I search before it... Ugh... Memories of Yahoo (ooer)). Now for some light non-seasonal humour. From //www.communiquetranslation.co.uk/news.php... "This month's Miss Translation is found on a website which has been translated by machine from French. It renders the word 'avocat' as The Lawyer. It then treats us to a range of mouth-watering quick and easy recipes (translated as receipts express train!) which include such delicacies as 'cold soup with lawyer' and 'lawyers stuffed with prawns'. Here is a taster: • to divide lawyers in two in the direction height... • to take the flesh • to be useful immediately because the lawyer tends to blacken - if you must wait a little, sprinkle lawyer with lemon juice? For more, visit the site using this link" Hehehe. I always hated lawyers. =D Sorry about not being online and blogging to the two people that read this... A dodgy network card took down all the PCI slots in my machine bar one. So at the moment I'm using onboard sound (eeeewwwww) and fortunately my graphics card works so I'm playing Mafia a lot. =D Oh, and my modem card works (how else would I be online. :rolleyes: ) Now that I've shared that little gem with you, bye for now.
