Google Android == Windows 7 ?

It’s essentially a typo in a brochure given out by a small computer retailer close to where I live. I doubt they’re intentionally trying to confuse customers, but I got a laugh out of it anyway.

My Music…. She Lives!

About two weeks ago I managed to bork my computer. It wasn’t anything too serious… I just had to reinstall Snow Leopard onto my mac. While this may sound like a horrible thing never to be repeated, I actually like doing it now and again. It helps get rid of the cruft that an OS [...]

I particularly liked the following: Despite your assumption, I have the highest amount of respect for authority. I actually wanted to become a police officer but failed the [...]

Heaven and Hell

Heaven is where the police are British, The chefs Italian, the mechanics German, the lovers French and it is all organised by the Swiss. Hell is where the polic are German, the chefs British, the mechanics French and the lovers Swiss, and it is all organised by the Italians (Via e-quillace)

In the closing paragraph of Robert Ludum’s The Bourne Supremacy there is a line that hit me. “What do you do when there’s a part of you that you hate?” And this got me thinking. Is there any real part of myself that I hate? Sure there are parts of myself that I dislike and [...]
