A blonde, wanting to earn some money, decided to hire herself out as a handyman-type and started canvassing a wealthy neighborhood. She went to the front door of the first house and asked the owner if he had any jobs for her to do.

"Well, you can paint my porch. How much will you charge?"
The blonde said, "How about 50 dollars?" The man agreed and told her that the paint and ladders that she might need were in the garage. The man's wife, inside the house, heard the conversation and said to her husband, "Does she realize that the porch goes all the way around the house?"
The man replied, "She should. She was standing on the porch."

A short time later, the blonde came to the door to collect her money.
"You're finished already?" he asked. "Yes," the blonde answered, "and I had paint left over, so I gave it two coats. "Impressed, the man reached in his pocket for the $50. "And by the way," the blonde added, "that's not a Porch, it's a Ferrari."

Quote from the_angry_angel :Damn, I would've offered you my US 1.5 PSP - which is flashable to 2.0 firmware incidentally. I'm looking to get rid of it, but I just dont have the time to ebay it properly yet.

How come you want to get rid of your PSP ? I think they are nice little gadgets.

good to hear your brining your PC, if you need any software tell me and i'll try and get my hands on it for you.

So i went to every game shop in town, like Gamestation, Game etc went to every electronics store went to argos even tried Virgin Megastores, no luck. So feeling down I went into HMV to buy a PS2 game, went to the counter looked behind the man, ooo PSP box but they had loads in gamestation without actually having it. 'I'm guessing you havn't got any PSP's in?' 'Ye they're just there' wohooo.

strange place to find a psp but hey!

its a nice little console, world soccer tour is quite good, and tony hawks underground 2 ain't bad. Underworld looks crisp on it so I am pleased.

Just looking foward to this event now, which reminds me I need to book some train tickets.

Quote from the_angry_angel :2 years, or so, ago when I originally did my A levels, soton were my first choice and when I visited I was also impressed by the facilities - unfortunately they require ABB (iirc)

I didn't go to Uni because I wanted to get out in the real work and earn some cash instead of getting into debt, but most of my mates went to uni.

The Uni says the want ABB but most of the time they will let you in with lesser grades if your enthusiastic enough. You just got to be lucky but if you ring up you never know, the worse that can happen is they will say no, you havn't lost anything.

One of my mates wasn't going to go to Uni, he got his results and got average grades, rung up a local uni and went can i come and he's there now! He didn't even go through all the system that you do during your a-levels. So its basically luck sometimes.

Like I said what's the worse that can happen, it might just be your day.

Getting close now. Hopefully its going to be an intresting event and i'm curious to see how its going to pan out. Its a strange system they've got like the sprint race finishing positions are the main events starting places but it could just work!

Also intrested to see if the 'Push To Pass' button is going to be used to good affect, I'm sure with an extra 30bhp or so they'll be able to do something special.

Nice track to start the season off aswell, plenty of overtaking at the hairpin hopefully and various other places.

Quote from Zoli81 :?
I don't know anything about these thing, but I feel the hackers don't really want to cause big damage, they just do it for "fun". Yet at the same time I think if they really wanted to, they could destroy a lot of things no matter what software you use.

Quite true, most hackers just do things because they are curious like haking into Nasa, they hardly ever get sent to jail because they say they were just curious to see if they could do it. But there are hackers that are out to create scirpts and otherthings to affect your computers behaviour.

So like so many people say its better to be safe than sorry and since its been reported many many times that IE is not as safe as other browers its worth the little download

andy.

p.s i havn't actually read why its safer (i'll have a look later if nobody relpies

Quote from thisnameistaken :
For a couple of years Opera was the only browser available that you had to pay for. According to their CEO, this meant that they had to make their browser the best browser on the market. They've worked hard to implement support for web standards in recent years. Their big thing though was always the UI - they were the first to introduce tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, etc. Their browser also appears to have a smaller memory footprint than its rivals.


Ye the whole website and package just seems to be more complete and more professional looking than its competitors. I'll try opera for a couple of days then Firefox and see which comes out top trumps.

Thank For the Help.

I'm really intreged by the opera explorer its seems the most advanced and accesable with G-mail, voice, custom skins etc. If anyone has any information about opera like is it nice and easy to use, safe etc. it would be much appreciated.

Just looked at both of them and they seem like nice packages. Quite inrested in the Voice Command for opera (does it understand scouse? :splando: ) even though i'm not actually that lazy it's a nice idea.

I'll testdrive both of them when i get home later.

I'll have a little look at both now in work (so not installing them) and then i'll try one when i get back, but which one ?? Is the suspense too much for you ??

thought not.

i remember using Firefox a while ago and it wasn't bad but I just ended up using IE again after I formatted my computer.

Maybe its time to go back it tho or even to Opera. Andy advice ?
