1. David Hasselhoff is the only man to ever defeat a brick wall in a game of tennis.2. There is no theory of evolution, just a list of creatures David Hasselhoff allows to live.3. When David Hasselhoff drinks pee, his asparagus smells funny.4. When David Hasselhoff was born, the nurse said, "Holy Cow! That's David Hasselhoff!" Then she had sex with him. At that point, she was the third girl he

Can someone explain to me, exactly what the f**k is going on in the world today?. All over the UK for example, politically correct councils are shying away from the word "Christmas". Apparantly it offends non Christians (although I've never heard anyone actually be offended by it). Frankly, if anyone was offended, maybe they should volunteer to keep the supermarkets, banks, and businesses open

When I first set up this blog, I decided to add a site meter, out of interest. It gives me stats on how many people have stumbled upon my disorganised thoughts on a weekly basis. Interestingly, it also tells you how, if they've used a search engine, they arrive here as thier destination.I checked the past three weeks stats, and found some of the search results I was showing sufficiently high

Like a dog with a bone, the Government continues to try to convince everyone ID cards are a good idea. Recently, ex head of MI5 said she believed that ID cards would be virtually useless unless made 'unforgeable', and certainly will not make us any safer as a nation.This has been a long running debate, on which the government has taken more beatings than a the average alter boy (allegedly), in

A useful technology to prevent web programs/spammers/et al, automatically logging onto sites/creating accounts, and other generic web tasks for nefarious means, was the addition of random text.Random text was a way to authenticate the user was actually 'there', as the web server generates an image of 4-6 randomly chosen letters and numbers.

Wonderful product this, it's the coloured powder that goes in your laser printer/fax/copier. When heated by a laser, it adhears to the surface, combining to make a coloured or black dot, combine these dots, and you can make images, text ... anything.

An outbreak of a disease is defined as being epidemic, however, not by how many members or what proportion of the population it infects but by how fast it is growing.

A chinese man was recently stabbed to death, over a dispute regarding a online computer game, . This is a online role playing type game, where the stabber (I'm trying to get this into the Collins dictionary ... come with me!) lent a virtual sword to a friend, who then sold the item for £500!!.This initially begs the question, who on earth would pay that sort of money for a non existant item ..

Just had to drop this in, saw 'Sin City' last night with my housemate, and his Dad. One of the most violent films I've ever seen - more violent than both of the 'Kill Bill' films even!. But at the same time, really good, I'd highly recommend it provided you bear in mind my earlier warning.Oh and as my housemate discovered, not the sort of film you go to see with your Dad ;O)

I work on a helpdesk as well as performing customer site visits for Technical support, and general Network administration, and even though it's a totally bespoke piece of software, occasionally you can get a call that boggles the mind.Me: Hello Technical, how can I help?Caller: Hi, i've got this error whenever I run any reports, and I can't seem to access muchMe:

My philosophy on the whole 'blogging' thing, is that if you don't say anything that can be taken seriously, no one can ever critisise you for being wrong (for example, see my Perpetual Motion Device theory opener, (scroll to the bottom) or Theory on Horror Movies - still in production). So for all those who take themselves a little too seriously in their reporting, take a look at this cartoon!.

Some of the things you should have asked for, this Christmas time!. A DVD by indie warblers Oasis, called Definitely Maybe (the title of their best album). The DVD contains all the songs from the album, with videos, and commentary from people involved with breaking the band, and producing the album itself. Take it from me, if you like music, this DVD is excellent. Next is the 'Man Pillow'.

Playboy's latest venture is based around the new iPod photo (can you see where this is going already?). They're apparantly offering some 'free' pictures to owners of this particular technological masterpiece, to help wile away the hours on the tedious commute to work.

This has to be the most tastless premise for a TV show ever?. Fox network in America is filming a new show called "Who's Your Daddy", in which an adopted girl, tries to work out who her biological father is.

Completely forgot I haddn't signed off on this one. Suffice to say, I was assigned no court time, and as such, didn't get to find out if court battles in the UK, bear any resemblance to that depicted in books and films I'd seen: Angry General: "You want answers!?"

Prison though, can, it appears!. Sony recently traced a large quantity of chipped Playstation 2's to a prison in China. Supposedly, the inmates were taking payment in 'snouts' and exchanging those for the peace of mind they can pick up the soap in the shower, should they drop it.

Composed a new theorum last weekend, spurred on from the relative success of the cat/buttered toast based perpetual motion device (see archives from September ... I think), I developed a new theorum while watching the hugely poor film "House on a Haunted Hill", *starring* the gorgeous Famke Janssen of Zena Onnatopp fame (James Bond, 'GoldenEye') The theory is that, the bulk of horror film deaths

Day 4, another day, another book. Once again a day in the Big Jury results in no cases, no challenges, and dissapointingly, no decent meals. I decided on a 'safe' option of Ham Quiche and chips, not wanting a repeat of yesterdays sickening incident, and was far more enthusiastic about the whole lunch experience (apart from, once again, the over use of fungi in EVERYTHING on the menu, they must

Day 3, and the morning passes completely sans event. More stunted conversations with people I don't know, and the end of the Bill Bryson book I sarted on Day 2. Lunch provides a usually welcome break in the day, with food a major motivation in my life. Todays lunch however, shows that caterers can draw inspiration for their meals, from decidedly strange places. As I was one of the first in

After a week or so of inactivity, I'm back in the office as I've been let off Jury duty for today. Stumbled, figuratively, over this post, with a quote from Mark Bond, the director of enterprise marketing for Vodafone UK. He said: "There's a generation of people who have never had a fixed-line phone. When they see a desk phone, they say, 'What's that?'" Yes Mark, I'm sure there is .... idiot.

Day 2 on Big Jury, is an awful lot like day 1. Basically, reading 3 different newspapers, and some awkward conversations with random people. Awkward predominantly because as soon as you start talking to someone, they are usually called away to sit in a case. There's nothing to knock your self belief, like having someone disappear halfway through a conversation, convenient excuse or not. After

I was recently called up for Jury service, and thought it was as good a thing as any to record on here. Day 1 Day one in the Big Jury, and the candidates are watching a video about what happens in a court case. Apparantly, court cases are largely held for bad actors, who's only crimes are against the world of acting. In order to fairly judge how bad the actors are, they must be judged by an

Micro$oft have recently invited those who suspect being in posession of counterfeit XP software, to 'submit it for analysis'. And if the software is found to not be origonal, they will replace it for free ..... subject to Terms & Conditions naturally!.

Apart from the meagre benefits of hugely inflated pay, and flexible holidays, there's a new benefit to working as an IT contractor!. The British Software Alliance is paying out upto £20,000 to whistleblowers regarding pirated software, this is reflected as 20% of the total cost of the software for which no licences are owned.

Not normally one to discuss potentially politically thorny issues in such a public manner, I found this report difficult to resist. A newly specified NHS IT system has been specced, and costed at 2.3bn over three years.
