AXIAR LARRISON LSTOCKY ZYRIL1 ZYRIL111 Weekly Folly
Right what the hell am I supposed to do? The only two centers of conversation for the week is Mr. G being cranky, and replacing the Delphi bit. Mr. G is of course completely hopeless, so he can be good for a larfe. But this Forum business has got two things going against it. 1. It's so hopelessly boring it could bore the tits of a dust mite, and 2. It's basically us talking about us. Even had a bloody newbie come in and think we talked about computers and crap. That has got to stop! So how do I summarize us talking about moving, and all the boring SQL, Indian, and PHP crap?

Taxes "must rise" for NHS National healthcare aint working? That's a surprise I must say. Mr. G started it late last week complaining about something. I know there's a reason we love him, I just can't remember what it is. I know I talked about this thread last week, so lets' get to the update. Oh right, Kenny said I was fat.

Bunch of arguing from the lefty side and the Dr. Spinola Talisker party. Degenerated into a drug discussion, which as usual meanders with no solid form for a bit. The Irish Dinosaur said something about the Aphid twig gang or something that I didn't get at all.

Mikey popped in with a little grammatical question, which we actually spent a fair amount of time on. Right around this time it all sort of fell apart. Cupid didn't want to let go of the drug conversation. Us Nashuaites blathered on about local things for a bit. The British quarter were trying to figure out if Wales and Scotland could pull off their own country or not. The ladies got into the lineage of the boomers vis a vis the American soldiers, which got rather serious for a day or so. I'd say it fell apart at this point, but it happened much earlier.

Shrub Why you English are so fascinated with our politics I'll never know. With that lot you have, you would think you have plenty to keep you busy. Anyways, the drunken Dinosaur posted some link about a TV producer not liking Bush. Like anyone gives a Badgers arse. Anyways 45 posts of Bush bashing.

PING : Frnht451 But honestly folks, how long before Frnht starts signing checks with an IP address. The Striped arsed Badger had some questions for the Ghost in the shell we like to call Book Boy. If you want to know about database krap (not to be confused with KrAP), this is the place to be. I mention the thread only because it shows off Frnht's scary abilities. A man among machines.

IDE/ATA RAID controllers Mr. G once again was looking for a little technical advice. Now we all know he makes more than enough money to afford 70 Quid for a controller, apparently he strives to be mini Spinola. Dinq mentioned something about soldering a resistor into a standard controller and making a RAID one. Uh, yeah right, I'm from Missouri on that one.

Somewhere along the line we got onto foxes. Apparently ole Blighty is overrun with em the way the British contingent talks. Foxes around every corner. Look up foxes, look down foxes, every where you turn foxes. If I were you I would avoid posts 21 through 27 at all costs, as there is a rather poor running Black adder imitation. Not a pretty sight. Near the end we determined that Talisker makes an excellent cold remedy, if it doesn't cure it, at least you wont give a damn.

Flashy's Big Arseventure Well old Flashy was planning on hooking up the old horse and buggy, and heading off to the big city. Talk about a hard thread to summarize. Started of with a little impromptu OOFG planning. We should have an idea Sunday how that may have turned out. Right quickly turned into a discussion of SF books. Frnht has a tendency to do that. Flashy had a little difficulty locating some parking for his buggy, and feed for the horses.

A little talk about something called "6 Nations." Around post 19 is where the actual start of our own forum started. Fairly light on the geek talk thank Jeff. Then there was a little foxhunt for Roto. He and others had been missing. Roto turned up, and I can confirm MyHieney is alive, but not much more than that. Oh and someplace else the Flounders turned up, though with less than a complete accounting of the Brownies.

Bloody newbies Basically just a bunch of abuse here. Good for a giggle.

Wanted: Delphi Archive Spider... & Forum hosting Well here is where it gets out of control. Bloody hell, sounds like the love life of a mac user or something. I mean sure, make the bloody decision to do something, but on and on with the database crap and bleedin sql this and PHP that. 350 fecking posts, on and on. About as intriguing as a restaurant selling haggis and Spam. I dare any of you to read through that whole thread top to bottom without nipping off for a nap or three. Here's a quote "expected OBJ G_ADOR.ASP at line 580 of message.asp to fit in with their current setup..." what kind of damn twatspeak is that. Does that ACTUALLY mean anything? I'm thinking of inviting G*meche in so I can have some interesting conversation, or at least more interesting. And just when it would taper off bleedin Mr. G would rile it up again.

Stupid Gits, I'm heading over to Word Bloody Association.

Hermie's Quotable Quotes
To: ROTOPLOOKER 6-Aug 01:27

Think there was one in Washington that was attacked. Been a while back. Generally they don't bother people. People irritate them though. They can be in an area and the only way you know is to find spoor or track. But when people start leaving kat food, garbage, etc out it starts drawing all kinds and all sizes of varmits. They get used to people and hook the smell of people and food. Last cat I saw was in 68 or so. We jerked our jackets open so that we looked about twice as big a we were and he went back into the brush real quick. We'd caught him eating a snack at the edge of a meadow in rather tall grass. Talk about a rush! We wandered back the way we'd come. Messing with big Kitties food ain't cool. Actually we've seen a couple since then in other areas, it's just that 68 was the last time it was so "Personal".... Looking attem through a pair glasses is one thing, twenty feet away is nnnnnnnnnnngsh1t!!!

If we ever get the chance to meet, don't be upset. I've "always" had a halo.

Thought that one was kind of touching to be honest.
