Cup Of Coffee

I’m not one to criticise other sites. In fact, I like to see how the competition is “doing” at times. However, I’m a bit narked at the plagiarism at a certain “other” website. Now, I’ve noticed that a lot of my images are being copied across to this site directly, complete with their blue background-colour [...]

Email of the week below. Kinda sums up anyone below management level – not just IT Support.. Feel free to copy and add in your own line of work! ————————– A woman in a hot air balloon realised she was lost. She reduced altitude and spotted a man below. She descended a bit more and [...]

There’s a Green Day song out at the moment called “American Idiot”. The lyrics go like this… “Don’t want to be an American idiot One nation controlled by the media Information age of hysteria It’s going out to idiot America” However, I feel that it’s happening more and more here in the UK too.

What a day.. in fact, what a couple of days I’m having. I took yesterday off (Tuesday) to get lots of reviews done – I’m in the middle of an o2 XDA Exec, Orange SPV M5000, o2 XDA SP and Orange SPV C600 reviews – so getting some time to do these is critical. Yesterday [...]

Looks like Engadget have bagged themselves one of the first X-box 360′s. They say.. “Um, we, uh, might not be blogging for a few days. Something really important has, um, come up. Super important stuff. Family stuff, you know? Thanks for understanding.” We’re guessing that they’ve got themselves a freebie like Chris Moyles this morning. [...]

I had this email today. Many emails which warn you of “scams” are usually rubbish themselves, however this is real and has happened to many people. Although Chip-and-Pin has stopped copied cards being used on the high street it doesn’t mean that thieves can’t withdraw money from your account or shop online. Don’t be fooled [...]

Houston, we have a problem. I’ve misplaced my microphone so I’m unable to do Podcasts at the moment. I’ll have another look tonight – it should be in the car however with it becoming dark quite early I’ve been fumbling around like a first sexual experience. Anyhow, there’s an interesting news item today detailing the [...]

One thing you really must not do is miss Top Gear on BBC2 every Sunday at 8pm. Actually.. two things you must not do. One is to miss Top Gear, the other is to poo in a public toilets … it’s just not done. Hmm .. perhaps that should be three things, because you shouldn’t [...]
