    My Hair grew back, Jennifer Aniston called and asked me over to her place for the weekend, I hit the lottery for 20 million and GW Bush resigned..
    Just a typical quiet week..

    OH, I am being given a $900.00 E5450 Harpertown from this very generous English gentleman.. That part is true!

    He isn't, he had just snoozed a load of url's, he delivered at the start of the day. He is now back to his normal output.

    My net has been giving me grief lately. Lots of 'upgrades' to the network during the night and I keep forgetting to reset my router in the morning, oops.

    Oh well, 12 hours of downtime for me today

    MJ-12 will be fired up tonight and the points should be rolling in soon, grabbing a 22GB file from limping peers had to take some time

    Don't worry guys the reason i'm not producing has nothing to do with me jumping on some turtle... more likely me jumping on some cute Taiwanese girl

    So gone for.....an hour? We need a turtle to keep the pace and do a little prodding around here(it's a little embarrassing when the team turtle is blowing past 3 hares sittin on their butts! )

    Btw how did the NB cooler end up at the bottom of his case?
