El Pibe

Maybe he had a working demo device or something. I find it a bit depressing that all he can be charged with is fraud when clearly he has effectively murdered thousands of people.

No way, cool. Loved the accent.

I always figured they all disliked the English regardless ;-)

At one point they say "Is she so English she's refusing to give up" I'm curious, from the context it sounds like to be English means to be stubborn or is it a synonym for stupid or is it just a generic insult?

worst parallel parking ever 14 minutes...14 minutes!!!!!!!

Is it just me that keeps reading this as 'Dropped Kebab Application'? mmmmmmm

exactly, the little things like copious bird shit on your table, nowhere actually really catching the sun, ten minutes to get your drink despite staff to customer ratio of 1:1 etc etc etc Lovely spot in theory though

Toungue in cheek, but kind of elaborates on the conclusion of my stream of conciousness ramble about the existential threat to the US coming from within. This chap suggesting that maybe the Union should finally let the Confederacy secede. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/04/30/memo-to-the-south-go-ahead-secede-already.html

You can do worse than the Prince Regent. Does a pretty good lamb roast on a sunday too (a rare beast indeed in these parts)

Oh you scotch folk. My Aberdonian mate wears shorts and a t-shirt when the weather barely creeps above freezing. Definitely a thermostat thing!!!

'quote this messge' can be useful when there are about 5 overlapping strands on a thread.

If you're going down the text editor route, sublime 2 is pretty marvellous.

I've got annoyed at myself if I've missed a flight, this chap missed two in a row and to put it mildly, got a bit batey. http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/02/25/watch-chinese-officials-airport-rampage-caught-on-video/

hmm, garmin have my road (a through road) as two cul-de-sacs that don't meet. most annoying as they keep telling me to do a u-turn. Of course once I've hit the A3/4/40/41 etc I really should just turn the damn thing off.

"whether it's a scientifically proven diet is beside the point - it does work" This is the sort of thing that will soon use terms such as 'allopathic'. Run for covveerrrrrrr!! In fairness edcam has a point that if there has been no study at all then that doesn't disprove anything. Of course if there have been studies that say no, that's another matter. I generally would say all diets that vary from 'eat less, eat healthily and do exercise' are probably on dubious territory.

I reckon it was Betsy the cow, taking revenge for last week's mutilations. Corblimeycharlie, tough viewing for a sunday night!

Oh yeah, hadn't thought of that, bugger. Anyway, highly entertaining tale of nuclear research and stratospheric manhole covers http://professionalparanoid.wordpress.com/the-fastest-man-made-object-ever-a-nuclear-powered-manhole-cover-true/

Quick set up before the linky pay off. What's the fastest mankind has made something go?
