last word...famous...?

Maybe this will make you feel better, and I ain't going to say "nuffink else"! The Truth about Conficker I woke up yesterday morning, like I do most mornings, to my annoying clock radio. Well, that day was just a little more annoying than most, just because of what I heard when I woke up. To my surprise, I heard the "morning personalities" blabbing on about this terrible worm called " Conficker ". They were saying that the worm could possibly strike on April 1st and cause "all kinds of damage". Let me start by saying that I cannot stand non-technical people trying to tell the world about the computers. Most of the time this is just a ploy for ratings. It seems that Conficker is the new hot topic for those that want to boost ratings, so I thought I would straighten things out. The Worm that everyone seems to be talking about is technically called Win32/Conficker.B. It is a variant of the Win32/Conficker.A Worm that came out sev

A confused nine year old boy goes up to his mother and asks, "Is God male or female?" After thinking for a moment, his mother responds, "Well, God is both male and female." This confuses the little boy so he asks, "Is God black or white?" "Well, God is both black and white." This further confuses the boy so he asks, "Is God gay or straight?" At this the mother is getting concerned, but answers none the less, "Honey, God is both gay and straight." At this, the boy's face lights up with understanding and he triumphantly asks, "Is God Michael Jackson?"

Virus scare: Is the Conficker worm going to unleash an apocalyptic cyber-event on April 1? ***************************************************************************** I`m not a rumour spreader, and in this case, it may only be scaremongering, but although in the case of the famous millenium bug - we couldn't have done anything anyway (because we had no idea of what COULD have happened), in THIS case we can do something. CONFICKER - in various forms, is an impressive PC Bug. Click on the title to read all about it (the link goes to a Microsoft page dealing with the problem) or you can go to "SNOPES.com" to check up the rumour that this Bug plans to explode, in a big way, on April 1st (great date for hoaxes - but is it...?).

Have a nice Weekend with some photos....

Sometimes you find photos that are exceptional, sometimes photos that are amusing. Here are a few I've found in the last few days. This one I find human, touching and reassuring - there ARE beautiful Nuns who don't waste "God's gift"- and there are smooth shaven young priests who DO like girls! Anyone who thinks otherwise GETS UP MY NOSE.........! This one shows that fairies exist (or tries to...) AND that they seem to drink tankards of beer! Finally, this photo shows the integral cunning of insects. Where could a fly be safer than here - always assuming the toad doesn't have a bendy tongue......! >>>>>>>>>>>>> Have a nice weekend! - Bonne Weekend! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

March 2009 - Everything about the time change Sunday 29 March at 2 am it will be 3 h. It is the transition to summer time. Better adaptation to the rhythm of the sun or unnecessary disruption of biological rhythms? The debate has lasted a long time. Why change the time? Energy saving, environmental impact, impact on road safety ... The arguments for or against the time change abound. Each year you must delay your watches in the winter and for summer advance them. Real source of economy or disruption of natural biological rhythm: what do you think of the time change? The shift to daylight saving time does not pose any problems " NOT what Eléonore Gabarain, president of the Association Against Double Summer Time who has been fighting for over 20 years for its removal, thinks! The double French DST : France and other Central European countries will actually be 2 hours ahead of the sun. When spring arrives, it is necessary to advance your watch an hour, France is actually 2 hours ah

Next Festival period....

I wanted to do a thing on Spring, but looking back, I saw that I have already "didded" one last week or so. I haven't, however, done a real one on Easter, so hard luck, folks! Spring is Easter, and Easter is Spring, everyone knows that! I think one could safely call them Spring Eggs, or Easter Lamb, but I still am trying to figure out where the hell the bunny rabbit or the hare came from, and when. Apart from the religious connotations you have all given to Easter, I associate it with buying half carcases of lamb, or even whole carcases. I had a tendance to glutton myself on Roast lamb, boiled lamb, lamb stews and all the other lovelies! Now, as a poor pensioner, this is beyond me, and having no teeth any more anyway, I couldn't bite lustily into the lovely rose/pink meat . They say that a good memory makes up for certain things, I've got a lousy memory, but - I can still recall the cracking of the skin on the outside of a nicely done leg of lamb,

True or not.....?

For quite some time now, I've been a little bit embarrassed at the situation in UK. Although I have very little - or rather - nothing to do with the place, I would have to be blind and deaf not to notice the influence of certain people in all aspects of daily life in that "green and pleasant land" - England. Seems that the English have now finally woken up to the fact that they are a part of the UK, and not vice-versa! And....... It seems they don't like it! Lots of mutterings are going on about another one of the United Kingdoms'. A little place, that up till recently had to be content with being a sort of Englishman's Castle, a place where the Englishman could drain of

All you have to do is refuse! I doubt that you will! Unfortunately, the same thing applies in other aspects of “Surfing”. I watched a report about “the dangers of the Internet”, and although a lot of what was said was acceptable, it was also very easily avoidable! One of the heated topics was the inevitable “sex” sites and the dangers for our poor children! Well, just the other day I watched one of these “poor children”, sitting all on his own, in front of his big brother’s PC, all alone with the world o

from the series: Europeans >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Europe-"The Scotsman" The above photo shows a few things about the Scotsman. The National sport is, of course, Golf - a sport invented by bored Highland shepherds, who hit lumps of sheep excrement from one point to another with their crooks, little suspecting that not even a Century later, all the other Nations would be paying dizzy sums of money to do almost the same thing! As the photo shows, the Scotsman is a naturally outgoing person, doesn't like hiding things, and another of his favourite pastimes is being chased by predominantly English policemen. It's the bain of a Scotsman's life - being often accused of "stinginess". In fact, it is, more often than not, simply the lack of funds, because he has already given more than he should have - to others. He is ac

EUROPE..COINCIDENCES...

Once I got onto the subject of coincidences, I had trouble sleeping at night! There were too many things that raced through the head, so that in the end I thought to myself, the first thing I'll write on the blog is something entitled - "When I woke up dead!" I didn't, because I finally fell asleep and forgot all my ideas! But coincidences - they just keep on coming back! As a young lad, like most young lads,  I had access to a map of the world, but not having figured out that it was square, I concentrated myself onto the part I came from, Europe, which was round!!  I discovered that this part of the world was full of and and , , and even together with all living in one area known as:   EUROPE      -    EUROPA    -    EUROPIUM     I recall looking at the map of Europe, and thinking to myself how it must be nice to live in certain parts of the area, for different reasons. I recall, for example, thinking that the bottom "left-hand" corner o
