Road Pricing Petition - THIS LOOKS REAL
I've checked this out on the net and it appears to be the real deal. Tell you what screw that for a barrell of Monkeys. So we get taxed to drive everywhere, fined for speeding and I bet Petrol will still be taxed and we'll have to get road tax as well!! I'll let you decide if you forward this to anyone (I have signed). >Subject: Petition Against Government Road Pricing > >You have until the 20th February to petition against this ... it is real. > >DEMOCRACY IN ACTION > >The government's proposal to introduce road pricing will mean you having >to purchase a tracking device for your car and paying a monthly bill to >use it. > >The tracking device will cost about £200 and in a recent study by the BBC, >the lowest monthly bill was £28 for a rural florist and £194 for a >delivery driver. A non-working Mum who used the car to take the kids to >school paid > >£86 in one month. > >On top of this massive increase in tax, you will be tracked. Somebody will >know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast you have >been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit in time >you can probably expect a Notice of Intended Prosecution with your monthly >bill. > >If you care about our freedom and stopping the constant bashing of the car >driver, please sign the petition on No 10's new website (link below) and >pass this on to as many people as possible. > > http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/ Current Mood:  angry | | Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007 | | 11:39 am |

AMAZING!! well it is for me =) This is actually me by the way I'm not kidding, if you check the credits for Serious Sam you see that another guy I worked with in Creative Labs (Daniel Peacock) is also listed!!

insulting the spanish
I Swear this is true: So I am off work tomorrow and I asked one of my Spanish collegues in Germany, to send any emails to my home address which you all know "pajaco". Only to be told the following: "By the way, you should think of changing your email address, as it does not sound very well in Spanish...It could read as Paja-Co, which is something not really nice...;)" So naturally I asked what it meant and: "Co = company in spanish/english "Paja" is slang for something male teenagers do quite frequently typically with adult magazines ;)" So basically my university login and username for just about everything I use is actually Spanish for wanking company or to put it another way a BIG WANKER.... WTF christ I don't think I've bought anything from anyone Spanish on ebay but my god my hole online life reduced essentially to being that. Damn life can be cruel =) Current Mood:  pleased | | Tuesday, September 19th, 2006 | | 9:28 am |
A Poem For Commuters
So Yet again the trains were cocked up today, and i could have stayed in bed another 25 minutes. bogus!! so whilst SW Trains were busy giving out appologies for the various reasons the trains were runnning late I wrote a little ditty in my head... We're sorry to announce your train is cancelled We're sorry to cause you a delay. But we don't really give a toss about you Because we have your money anyway! There are no seats left, so you'll have to sit on the floor. When it's standing room only, can you please hang out of the door? We pay our managers thousands for cocking things up and the drivers won't drive until there's no tea in their cup We're sorry we're not moving, the signal box has broken again But refreshments are available from the back of the train. And please take you items with you, when you finally alight And please remember you'll have go through this again tonight! Ok so now I feel better =) Current Mood: annoyed | | Friday, August 4th, 2006 | | 2:40 pm |
How To Spot an Ebay Scam
Browsing ebay and I saw this: NEW Dell XPS M1710 2.16GHz Dual Core/100 GB/2GB http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-Dell-XPS-M1710-2-16GHz-Dual-Core-100-GB-2GB_W0QQitemZ250014929444QQihZ015QQcategoryZ171QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemWOW what great offer, but something is smelling might off in the land if bid check out the feedback and this guy has bought 10 separate "MP3" and nothing else and further more he's done them all about 1-2 minutes of each other. Now I'm no mathematician but I'm sure you can't login to paypal and pay for the item that quickly can you? Note how all of the sellers of the mysterious "MP3" all have no feedback Me thinks this dude is in fact all of the sellers of "MP3" and that he has just created all these feedback to scam some poor sod out of a load of cash =) Remember think once, think twice think don't drive on the pavement.

swap two variables without using a third... BORING ALERT
Ok so in my quest to alleviate the boredom of waiting for the games repository to respond to my every whim I came up with a way of swapping two variables with out using a 3rd... I think. Normally to swap the values in A & B you need C e.g. A = 5; B = 3; C = A; // A = 5, B = 3, C = 5 A = B; // A = 3, B = 3, C = 5 B = C; // A = 3, B = 5; C = 5 But I in my genius or total boredom came up with. A = 5; B = 3; A += B; // A = 8, B = 3 B = (A-B); // A = 8, B = 5 A = (A-B); // A = 3, B = 5 Assuming of course that the brackets get evaluated first... And that ladies and Gentleman is.... FOR GODSAKE GET ME OUT OF HERE I AM GOING MAD..... =P Current Mood:  bored | | Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006 | | 10:32 am |

Vampires and how to beat them
OK so it occurred to me the other day that you can beat a vampire very easily, should you ever be unfortunate enough to encounter one: 1) Stand Straight with your legs together 2) put your arms out wide Essentially making a cross shape (or in the fashion of somone being crucified) and then you make one giant cross and the blood sucking SOB won't be able to touch you =) keep this up till sunlight and bingo your saved....

You ever considered quitting your job and getting a job at a charity store to get first pick of the games. 03. You paid more for a video game than you did for the car you are driving. 04. You can name more game programmers than Prime ministers. 05. You ever had to justify why you have 5 versions of the same game. 06.

You know the Pacman Fever album by heart. | | Tuesday, January 17th, 2006 | | 5:24 pm |
Video Games and Society
So it looks like the control freaks now have another reason to complain about video games. Not only do video games: 1) Teach you to pop a cap in someone's backside 2) Teach you how to have fully clothed sex 3) Teach you violence in general But now it seems that the upcoming game Mark Eckos Getting up, which uses Graffiti and the implementation thereof as part of the game mechanic, has got DA MAN up in arms because it may cause those people who have problems differentiating fantasy from reality; you know weirdos, shut ins, generally people who share a common fear of sunlight with vampires... oh personal hygiene normally. So as a respectable adult I am jumping on the bandwagon and I want to Ban the following video games: 1) Tetris This game caused me to throw a brick at someone in 1986 and I got into a lot of trouble because of this, Screw you Tetris 2) Ghosts and Goblins Was the reason I was caught running round the forest in my pants in 1988 and was arrested for decent exposure, when I tried to explain that my armour had been smacked off by a zombie they just didn't believe me. And that was my lance hanging out thank you very much. 3) Track and Field Turned me into a professional athlete in 1987, but I had to give it up as people kept laughing at my porno tache and tight shorts, (IT STILL HURTS DAMMIT) 4) Frogger, In 1989 caused a 52 car pileup killing 12 people and seriously injuring 5 normally I'd have expected the car to just hit me like it does in the game. Id get another life and the game would go on. But NO, apparently running across the M25 at rush hour causes drivers to swerve in attempt to miss you and they drive into each other, THIS IS CLEARLY NOT MY FAULT, but I did get told off by coincidentally the same police man who arrested me in the woods in 1988 I mean jeez what are the odds of that? 5)Ms Pac-Man in 1983 I became and compulsive eating transvestite of lemon tic-tacs and ballooned to 27 stone, I then needed serious therapy and a lot of plastic surgery to get rid of the excess skin. and because of the yellow food coloring in the tic tacs I did stop being yellow until 6 months later. And how was I to know that some religions force their women to dress from head to foot in a sheet with holes for eyes. I thought she was ghost and tried to eat her!! fortunately I was so fat I only managed to run 2 meters before I fell over in a heaving lump on the floor. 6)Any Pokemon game The Games "gotta catch em all" has turned me into a kleptomaniac to the degree that I'm even stealing stuff from myself You see video games are evil, they teach you to do stuff you wouldn't normally do, ban them! ban them all hey that would make a great idea for a game. Right I'm off to steal someone's car just to listen to their radio. Current Mood: amused | | Thursday, July 7th, 2005 | | 11:39 am |
