  1. Been off all day, contemplating skiving for the weekend, off out for drinks and gambling later tonight once the lad's plane lands.

    Tough Times

    Aye it seems like life's been rough lately but thankfully my own has settled on a pretty even keel now. Alot of things have gone into perspective when I look at others and what they're going thru. A good friend of mine just fell apart at work last night- we knew she'd told her husband to leave and that she wanted a separation. What we didn't know until last night is that he'd taken their young children to New Hampshire and hidden them with family (his) and won't tell her where they are.
  3. Looks like lumpy matzo balls in a weak marinara... nice Cath LOL.
  4. nah all quiet and boring here tonight, roll on the weekend I prefer sunday night Tv to saturday though. And im off work untill weds night ED: I recon I ramble more when ive not had a drink So much easier to understand tho LOL. Pissing down rain here at the moment- quiet night and the sky's gone that odd yellowy grey green... in for a serious storm I reckon. Red Bull and Zyr.... it'll be a nice night.
  5. This. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xerqg_amazing-guitarist
  6. Over run sporadically with nomadic grockles....
  7. Bless her heart- how did I know this thread was started by the lovely Lins just from the title?
  8. You can still have a valid view though. Unless you reckon people can only comment on things they have direct experience of, which is patently untrue. In any case, there are people on here who have kids who don't agree with smacking. A valid opinion maybe, but not a view. Having the view requires experience.... I have to agree in a manner with the dwarf.

    *bumped for Gol, Craig, PP, Hugh and any other IT sort* If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort, And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort, Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report! If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash, And the double-clicking icons put your window in the trash, And your data is corrupted 'cause the index doesn't hash, Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash! If the label on your cable on the gable at your house, Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse, But your packets want to tunnel to another protocol, That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall. And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss, So your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse, Then you may as well reboot and go out with a bang, 'Cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang! When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk, And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary RISC, Then you have to flash your memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM, Quickly turn off your computer and be sure to tell your mom! (I wish I came up with this.)
  10. If I can't have water then I'd like this please.
  11. I'll give a quick slap upside the head when my lads act up, but it's always after a verbal warning. Each has been raised to respect others and to mind themselves in an appropriate manner. If they choose to go against what they've been taught then they'll get a reminder.Simple as. Sometimes it's necessary, and it's a definite shite part of being a parent but I'd rather you think less of me for giving my son a brainduster when he acts up as a child than to have him be an american equivalent of a chav/hooligan.
  12. Funny thing is my neighbor's 15 y/o daughter thinks he's 'HOT!'... we've had some fun watching the vids LOL.
  13. What's white and goes streaking across the sky? The coming of the Lord.
  14. Hating someone is just a waste of time IMO. Seriously. When you hate them you spend all that energy venting and ranting about them... so what? Move on.
  15. I can see mine but everyone else's are question marks too ??? Snap. Same here... oddness.
  16. No, I believe you're bang on, mainly close to New York, and Hartford. I didn't mean that Connecticut was exceptional to most of New England in that regard, but that in the US generally it would be a high percentage. I'm not particularly interested, but it's hard not to notice the Jewish population with an interest in US politics. [/CanOWorms] In isolated areas then maybe the Jewish population would hold a sway on politics, but for the country in general you have to look to the religious right and catholicism.... isn't that right Mr. President. Oh now wait just a second... schools are teaching a glossed over history that excludes an event that the Catholic church was notoriously ambivalent on...
  17. Just the high concentration (Jesus Wept) of Jewish people in Connecticut. I don't know where you got your statistics for the Jewish percentile in CT vs other states but I would (somewhat)safely assume that other than maybe the western area of CT closest to NY would have a higher concentration, but not the state in general. I could very easily be wrong admittedly, but I don't think so. Not that it matters really...a person's religious preference isn't something that has a huge impact on me.
  18. Why more so in Connecticut? I just found it shocking in general how much is lacking in his education now. For all that I do believe americans are ignorant of the world around them in general I really couldn't believe the curriculum he was being taught. It was so glossed over! War is a harsh thing no matter what but you'd have thought from what he had been taught that the Holocaust was nothing more than a playground spat between on kid who celebrates Christmas vs Hannuka. Even speaking with his teacher, the sheer scope of the purge wasn't even broached.
  19. Educate them. Incidentally my eldest studied 20th century european history last year and not one thing was said about the Holocaust.
  20. Div or numpty for joking about.... the word fucktard has been added to my vocabulary lately for a few individuals.

    JJ is back!

    The man of your dreams. So what have I missed then? Not much, tbh. Jesus wept. TBH.
  22. Woo hooo!!!!! Woo hoo hoo! Welcome back JJ!
  23. I like it personally but it's not something I'd be bothered about whether it's there or not.
