What a cracking story…
A friend of mine (well I use the term cuz it suits conversational writing) sent me some interesting stuff today… so I make that Aquila o’clock!
(more…)
what am I like as a person?
How would someone recognise me if they bumped into me in the street?
Well, I don’t do walking the street, and you really don’t want a visit from me…
I have also been asked for a picture of me “Commando” - I don’t like to disappoint…
Electric cars are the answer?
This is a group of my favourite questions.
- Why aren’t more people moving to electric cars?
- Are electric cars cheaper than regular ones?

Oh that’s right, because electricity is free! muppets!

Politically correct language?
Whatever the hell next! While I agree that a lot of so called ‘British born and bred’ types need help with their mother tongue, I cannot believe this news item made the BBC!!!
Back from holiday and I’m already becoming agitated! I want fewer of these crap damit!
Will code for energy.
In an amusing article regarding a part of the hell facing Britian this winter fuel poverty and oil companies are an interesting topic.
Cloudy motive?
In an interesting article I just read, some idiot CTO suggests we stay out of the computer cloud for a while, and suggests that Amazon’s elastic computing cloud may be inadequate for mission critical stuff… Well mr CTO numpty, with all due respect stuff off.
Here is the article:
The ROYAL Swazi spa hotel
A not bad for a three star… problem is it is listed as a FIVE star. Now over here to get the “Royal” attribute you have to have permission from the ruling monarch, and either he is easily pleased or hasn’t been to visit in a while. (more…)
