Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[RED-DOG]

I've been watching The Young Apprentice on BBC1.

I'm not really much into this type of cannon fodder TV, but a have to grudgingly admit, it is rather splendid viewing.

That girl who got sacked last night. She brought it on herself. Fancy taking two strong candidates like those back into the boardroom?



Also.....

Do you find this lad as irritating as I do?




And who do you think he looks like? Bridie says Beethoven, I say Gordon Brown.

Cyanide Bugs! (((( Shudder )))


Some millipedes are able to secrete cyanide

Laboratory study of these millipedes (which are slow moving and feed on plants) are able to release clouds of hydrogen cyanide gas through small vents in their body. This is most likely to occur when being handled, or attacked by other creatures such as ants. It is essential that one wash ones hands after touching one of these millipedes.

I'm only just now beginning to realise how bad I am at maths.

I always used to think I was good at it because I could reckon money up pretty quickly, but when I come to think about it for most of my life that has only meant handling sums totalling a few hundred.

All this malarkey might as well be written in Klingon for all the use it is to me.

What are pluggins?

Are they safe to download, are they power hungry, are they always running in the background when your not using them and are they easy to get rid of?

In what context? For your browser?

I just tried to look at an on line flight sim and it said "Click here to install plug-in"

Safe to download and definitely required for that type of thing.  Don't know the answers to the rest of your questions, but Bongo will look after you.

And for the record...your mind is a bit mental in the mornings.  Just sayin'.

You can't say someone's bulletproof except for their head, legs etc. Either they are or they're not. It's a bit like your roof being waterproof Sparta from a few bloody great holes

Love how they bounce around the place, stop and unravel, then just carry on as normal.  I'd be dizzy as all heck after that trip.

Speaking of domestication, it's thought that no new animals have been domesticated in the last 4000 years.
