I'm currently reading The World According to Clarkson part 2 after an extensive session with finishing the first part of it. So far, it is pretty good but i have only just started it though.

In the mind, this is funny only as an idea in the mind. As it was bought out into the world this is now very cruel. How could you do that to him even though he could be what you say a "loser". Yes, it may have been funny and all that at the start but then it should have stopped before it got any worse.

I sometimes have socks that go missing, i do check the machine and there is never anything left in there after the wash, but then in the next wash they re-appear mysteriously usually in with the white load.

2 crisps were standing at a corner when a man pulled up in his car.
"Need a lift" said the man
The crisps replied "No thanks, we're Walkers"
Why are muslims no good at football?
Because everytime they get a corner, they build a shop.
A man went into a bar and asked the barman for a shot of 25 year old scotch. "I can tell the difference, so don't try and give me different stuff." said the man to the bartender. The bartender thought for a second and gave the man a shot of 5 year scotch. The man drank it and slammed the shot glass on the table. "This is 5 year scotch, i asked for 25 year scotch." the man said. The bartender was a little impressed so tried him with 15 year scotch. Same happened again, glass slammed on table and the man complained again. "Look, i want 25 year scotch, not this cruddy 15 year scotch.". This time, the barman gave him the 25 year scotch and the man was happy this time. Another man came up to the bar who was also impressed by what he just saw. "You can work out how old the whiskey is by only drinking it" "Yes i can" replied the first man. "Ok then try this" the second man said. So the first man drank it and replied "Yuk, this tastes of piss". The second man laughed and said "Precisly, now work out how old i am then"

On X-Box, Rare havn't been much good. Grabbed by the Goulies didn't grab me as such. Now on the 360, PDZ, Kameo and Viva are all great games. PDZ does have a few flaws, but Kameo and Viva make up for this game. I think this generation, we may see Rare flourish into something similar to what we saw on the N64.
If Rare had stayed with Ninty, and with the patience of Ninty as well, Rare may have made Goulies more fun and enjoyable and Kameo and DK racing would have been as we saw them back in 01/02. Maybe BK and PD would be readily available for the VC as we speak.

jimbob recommends double chocolate chip cookies as they are jimbob's favorite type of cookie.
jimbob likes these cookies with a glass of semi-skimmed milk.

I'm considering signing up, but as the government have plans to make everyone donors anyway i may wait until i am automatically placed on the list.

Beverly Hills Cop
Excellent first in the trilogy starring Eddie Murphy. Just finished on ITV2. 9.5/10

Alcohol is good, i do enjoy it quite a bit. Sociably of course and not over-indulgence as i hate getting bladdered.
I tend to drink Fosters and Stella Artois most of the time, but now and then Worthington, Carlsberg and Guinness. Spirit wise Vodka, Whiskey and Rum. I drink them either on their own with ice or with Coke.
And yes as i grew up i changed from drinking Bud and Carling to what i drink above over the course of 3 years.

Seems like a good idea, will have to see if i can make it due to work commitments and all that. Plus i have a holiday booked in July as well, unsure of dates as parents have booked it. I will keep all informed. Would be nice to meet as many of you in person as possible.

Looks good so far, after the cliffhanger style ending of the last i will be intrigued to see how they work from that.

I'm not racist, i just don't like Eastern Europeans i.e Polish people who come into this country and steal our jobs. I had polish people steal my job once about a year and a 1/2 ago and i hated them ever since, i got released because of "cuts" and then no sooner did i leave, the Polish turned up. Boss said they were cheaper to hire than me and 3 others.
But other cultures are cool, and i have no problems with other cultures and races, just have problems with East Europeans

Had a good day bar the weather, which was on and off rain and snow. One moment it was snowing, next rain and so forth all day long.
Work was good as usual did so much programming until a 3rd of the software i use decided to crash and not work properly again for the rest of the day.
Now come home and about to go out for the night, so i bid you all a fond farewell and catch ya tomorrow

I never got a PM, but after all the events of the last time it happened i don't really want to see another happening again ever. All that gtfo business and random avatars and names changing to suit was a little funny at first but then it went too far.

The following really make me angry
The Elderly - They jump the queue, hog all the seats on the bus without moving over for you then expect you to vacate the seat on the bus for them to sit down.
Chavs - Need i say more, they really wind me up completely and they make me want to smack some sense into them. They are all "innit" and stuff like that.
My Parents - Soft buggers they are. When i was younger, they wanted the best from me so punished me whenever i went wrong with groundings and no tv, games or internet for a period of time, they even took all my stuff from my room to make me study of which i am thankful for. Now with my younger sister who always is in trouble they leave her, may ground her from time to time but don't follow the punishment through and before it is up, she is back out with her mates and the parents don't care. My sister got put on report, and my folk rewarded her with a grounding but no removal of stuff. She could still browse the net and watch DVD's to her hearts content. Same can be said about housework, she does bugger all and no-one makes her do anything.
Well, enough of my gripe. I have more to add to the list, will post them all tomorrow sometime.

Red Dwarf Series 2
Second season of the populat Sci-Fi sitcom set 3 million years in the future. First episode is a classic when the crew meet Kryten for the first time and he turns on Rimmer thanks to Lister. I'll give this 10/10 because it is better than the first series by a bit
Red Dwarf Series 3
Yes, as you can guess i am on a Red Dwarf marathon for the whole of January. Finished watching series 2 last week, and series 3 this week. New sets have been used to give the series a more colourful image compared to the previous series sets. First episode is great as we see the crew return to Earth but not all is how it seems. Later on in the series, Rimmer and Lister swap bodies and Lister finds a way to change his life for the better. 10/10

The Myth
Surprisingly good movie starring Jackie Chan and Kim Hee Seon. What i expected was a weak, yet slightly entertaining 2 hour time wasting session and what i got was a strong, entertaining movie well worth 2 hours viewing. It has great stunts, acting and is complete with typical Jackie Chan humour. As this was the Chinese/Mandarin/Cantonese version of the movie, it is more bloody and gory than the American rated version. I will give this 9.5/10.

American Pie: The Wedding
Put it on last night, still as good as i remember it. Great laughs throughout but not as good as American Pie 2 though this still gets a comfortable 8/10
Rush Hour 3
Surprisingly good 3rd part in the Rush Hour series, better than i thought it would be anyway. Good laughs and all that as well 9/10

I just cut the crap out of my diet and do more physical exercise and only eat 3 meals a day
So that is no chocolate, sweets or any other cruddy foods. As for beer, it doesn;t put weight on me so that can stay i think.

I would do something that no-one normal would do, plenty of hit and runs. As for what happens if they get back up again, i will think of that later.

Make me laugh, then makes me angry at the same time. Someone receives an I-pod as a gift then has a note that states how to claim it inside. Something is wrong with that, i guess someone got fired from Apple and thought to do this before they left, looks bad for the company i guess.

I've had an alright weekend. Started out cool after work on Friday, had a few of the lads over for a few beers after work then went to the pub later that evening. Saturday i went out for a meal with my family as it was my Dad's birthday then played some Pool later that night. Then today i re-newed my membership at my local club and helped with the removal of the decorations, then came home to a Lamb dinner and have been online all night, and have only just put on American Pie: The Wedding.

Damn right its worth some compensation. You pay for the service, and if it doesnt work then compensation needs to be given. If it was a few hours then I would agree, but its not. I hardly get any free time to myself nowadays, and when I do get free time I want to play online, and at the moment it is very tricky and time consuming to do so.I feel sorry for the guys working there. About a week ago they said no-ones going home till its fixed....
I have to agree, if a service you pay for does not work or is not up to standard then compensation or anything to give to customers as an apology is good. If you payed for a connection to the Internet, and the connection didn't work then you would expect something good to come from it.
Who are Beavis and Butthead?

Beavis and Butthead. Don't get me started on how cruddy the TV series was, no laughs what-so-ever for me. Movies had one or two giggles but that was it really.
