Level twenty two was when I kicked the cat and swore at the neighbours.

[BrigitDoon]

Which means you got further than I did. So please, pretty please Mr Doorstop, with brass embellishments, how did you get past the see-saw?

[Doorstop]

No way .. I had to do it the hard way, so will you!

What level is the see saw level and I might tell you?

[BrigitDoon]

Stage 19, but you were right. Did it by the Mongolian hordes technique...

[BrigitDoon]

OK, this time I give in. Stage twenty one. I can get the little smiley guy half way up the ramp but the four-be-two doesn't whack him hard enough.

[Doorstop]

*sigh*



As the pendulum starts to swing cut the rope closest to the left hand side, this increases the pendulums velocity.

[BrigitDoon]

Thanks Doorstop. I'll psych myself up to have another go. I was trying a lot of similar things, but couldn't get it right.

Did you win in the end?

[Doorstop]

Yeah, finished it last night.

Business Meeting Bingo.

1. Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar, or conference call, prepare yourself by drawing a square. I find that 5″x5″ is a good size. Divide the card into columns-five across and five down. That will give you 25 one-inch blocks.

2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:

synergy
strategic fit
core competencies
best practice
bottom line
revisit
take that off-line
24/7
out of the loop
benchmark
value-added
proactive
win-win
think outside the box
fast track
result-driven
empower
knowledge base
solution
touch base
mindset
client focus
paradigm
game plan
leverage

3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases.

4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout “BULLSHIT!”

Sigh this is all too familiar. We now have a "leadership team" instead of managers.

[Doorstop]

I've said it before John .. the whole world is turning to the 'form over function' mentality and going down the gurgler in the process.

made my internet a bit faster, and was a piece of piss to set up.
you can make shortcuts too, for example type 'hg' in to the address bar and it'll bring you here.
if you want content control you can set that up as well.
its free, only trade off i can see is that if you misspell a url you'll go to an open dns suggestion page.

give it a bash, you can always revert to your default settings

I wasn't keen on the way opendns works as there are privacy issues with the service.

I have my own DNS server instead.

Anybody think this looks like the seat of a motorbike stuck on to part of a toilet?
