Mightybec Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Why didn't Asian bird markets clean up thier act after the SARS epidemic? These outbreaks can cripple an ecomony in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 It's snowing in Central London and laying. And it ain't done that in a while I can tell you. Also got me a new PC at work. But it has taken me about three days to transfer all my files from the old PC to the new one. Nice 18" Flat screen. Not that size matters you understand. And 512 Mb memory when most people have 256 Mb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 My 17" monitor blew yesterday. Loud pop and a rather nasty smell. I'd like to get a flat screen for replacement, but they're still a bit too spendy for the size I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 A week and a half is too #$#$ing long for something to mail from NC to TN. No wonder they call it snail mail. Man this is annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 That lunch thread now has me thinking about food. My stomach on the other hand is reminding me of yesterday and why I stayed home.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterdeath Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 sometimes mice are so darn cute. Had to go buy catfood, and while I was in the store, I stopped to watch the white mice. Three of them were running on the wheel as fast as they could. Then when the thing was cranking along, one of them would stop running and hold on, getting twirled along until he fell off. Then they'd do it again, with a different mouse each time. It put me in a good mood. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Worldmaker Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 I've always considered it strange that Lou Bega, he of "Mambo #5", is usually included as part of the so-called "Latin Explosion" (in which white people suddenly became aware of how fantastic the hispanic music scene is) that occurred a couple of years back. The reason I consider it strange is because Lou Bega is from Germany, and he doesn't have an hispanic bone in his body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybertooth Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 Today (or technically, yesterday since it's morning now) was the 10th month anniversary of Virginia's (my wife) death. I've been thinking. Has it been 10 months since I last saw her, or is it 10 months closer until I see her again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 Getting home last night was fun. Had to walk from the station (the Tube) home. And the walking was treacherous due to the melting snow icing up on the pavement. Almost home and two buses broken down making passing on the road almost impossible. (difficult to imagine if you are used to American roads but ours are not as wide) Immersed myself in mindless entertainment. Wrestlemania 19. Before I left work yesterday I downloaded some more Digital Hero. Except Issue 9 which did not want to come for some reason. Come in No 9 your time is up !

Vondy Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 I really don't think my plots are that difficult: Player: what’s in his pocket? Dave: thirty-seven cents, a matchbook from a club called the blue parrot, some lint, and a pack of gum. Player: what kind of gum? Dave: um… Big Red? Player: Big Red? Who chews Big Red? I know how you think Dave, it’s a clue. Dave: Yeah, sure Mark, okay. What do you do with the matchbook? Player: That? I don’t smoke. I throw it out. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!

BlackSword Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 I think weather.com is broken. It lists the current temp as 8 degrees farenheit. As I am preparing to leave work for the weekend soon, that doesn't seem like it should be right. It should be closer to say, 60, and sunny. Of course part of the problem with leaving is trying to find my car, with all the salt on the roads all cars are the same color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermit Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 I hate being sick. I don't like coughing, I don't care for fevers that at best bring rather boring dreams, and I don't like the combo of weakness and pounding headaches. No sir, I don't like it at all.

Guest Worldmaker Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Speaking of being sick, I think I'd rather catch ebola than have a sinus infection, and ear infection, strep throat, and conjunctivitis all at the same time. Unfortunately, I was unlucky and didn't catch ebola... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
