Scam City version 10 Not Using A Fancy “X” Like Others

Posts from February 2004

High-ish Drama

We’re nosey neighbours… We see things going on through the office window and make up stories about what’s going on. Don’t get me wrong, it’s just between us, we don’t spread idle gossip to other neighbours.


PhotoChopped!

It finally happened… The version of Adobe Photoshop CS I was using had the old “serial-expires-on-February-1st” trick happen to me… So after a month of using a trial version and the older “changing-the-clock-back-to-January” trick I thought “it’s been a month, more or less, I’m pretty sure the mad genius’ out there have cracked this problem by now…”


The Fallout and the Snowfall

Thankfully Michael Hanscom was pretty understanding about yesterday’s incident, so I’m back to this old look while I figure things out…


Guilty as Charged

I’m a hypocrite… Last month I had a post called “All Rights Reserved” about me jumping on the Tequilamockingbird vs. Bryan Lamb righteous cause of copyright infringement… Only for me to do something far more heinous than copying someone’s words.


When Linus Met Sally… Part II

We finally managed a bit of a family reunion without the hissing and growling from Linus. Thought it took some real persuasion…


When Linus Met Sally…

We got a new member of our motley crew of the damned extended family today in the shape of Linus’ real, real brother… Which we’ve christened “Sally” just to confuse the two of them, seeing as Linus is a girl and Sally a boy. And he’s just an adorable little kitten, the runt of the litter no less. Linus is a little ball of fluff, and Sally is like half her size.


Fun With Aggregators

As you know, I recently upgraded to Mozilla Firefox 0.8 and today I finally got round to going to the extensions page after it was down for the best part of 10 days and installed the RSS Reader Panel. This is a handy tool as it (in theory) prevents me going to all the blogs I read to see if their updated…


Shake it Like a Polaroid Picture™

Ever since the song “Hey Ya” by Andre 3000 of Outkast came out, everyone is shaking their Polaroid pictures. I have always been told that you should not shake a Polaroid picture, but I’m having a hard time convincing those around me that this is true. What is the answer?


Sweet Child O’ Mine…

Now…. You thought this was gonna be a post about that infamously lazy ass band who call themselves Guns N’ Roses and their lawsuit didn’t you?

Jesus readers, give me a bit more credit than that…


iTunes Giveaway

“Hi, I’m Greg, and I currently reside in Atlanta, Georgia and in my spare time I like to defraud leading cola retailers.”


Same Old, Same Old Again…

Another dismal performance by Scotland, after the “dizzy” heights of beating Holland 1-0 in November, it’s back to the same miserable performances. I listened to the first 20 or so minutes of today’s game before turning off in relative disgust. They’ve now conceded 10 goals in 2 games without reply.


More On the BBC and THE Batman!

For 116 quid a year you get eight TV channels, five national radio networks, separate networks for Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, with their own language services. Local radio. The world’s best web site. Your taxes buy the world’s most listened to radio station. I know who I trust, and I’m proud to work for them.


BBC Under Threat?

The UK Government may want to dismantle the BBC after the fallout from The Hutton Report about the death of Dr. David Kelly. This can only end in tears before bedtime for everyone concerned…


#FFFFFF power!

A new scholarship created for whitey only.


How I Got Here…

So many are still wondering why I chose to live in Atlanta, so seeing as I’ve got time on my hands (and really nothing better to do) I’ll tell you a little story.
