This is far better than the manwash. Hours of fun.
life is fragile
Another reminder on the fragility of life and a brutal jolt to help put things into perspective. My brother came home this week after being involved in a serious car accident near Manchester where he lives three weeks ago. Having seen the state of his car and also the extent of his injuries it's amazingContinue reading "life is fragile"
a blatant plug
My good friend Steve has undertaken an arduous cycle with 2 colleagues in France: 500 miles in 3 days. Phew! Not only was he forced to wear lycra for the duration but they'll be updating their sponsors with video footage from the event and in the evenings. I thought it was the end of OctoberContinue reading "a blatant plug"

Do it today and maybe you can help save a life. Better still, diarise it and do it regularly. Although activity has dwindledContinue reading "do something good today"
email hell
I still remember the days of fax and acetates in the working environment and email was just coming to the fore. In 10 years its use has rocketed to make communication faster and easier on the one hand but overwhelming and pointless on the other. New research from Glasgow & Paisley universities suggest that BritishContinue reading "email hell"

Here's a map of he DNS root servers globally. I didn't realise that in 2002, an attack disabled 9 of the then 13 root name servers. And then in February 2007, 30,000 zombie PCs, traced to South Korea, battered the servers: affecting six, two badly.

stuff and things 19.09.07
A third of American men don't wash their hands & 12% of women don't either. Ewww. That's disgusting. And that's how germs are spread. Just ask the NHS! Quote from the Guardian: Guys need to step up to the sink It's not that hard is it? I found the image on Flickr and the photographer'sContinue reading "stuff and things 19.09.07"
