iwmPOP - Parlons-en,Talk about it!

FAITES POUR LES GENS D'AUJOURD'HUI! SPECIALLY FOR TODAY'S PEOPLE. iwmPOP - Parlons-en,Talk about it! VOICI DE L'AIDE POUR VOUS! EFFECTUER LA CONVERSATION EN PLUSIEURS LANGUES! (après tout - il n'a pas beaucoup des gens capable de communiquer du tout ces jours-ci!) HERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF HELP TO HOLD CONVERSATIONS IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES! (After all - most of you are incapable of communicating at all nowadays!)

Update - for those interested!

Just an update of the situation and a history of " The things that can happen, and have!" You come out of the first Doctor's surgery in a longish list of "control" appointments, and you don't really know what to think! On the one hand, the guy's just told you that your Blood Analysis couldn't be more perfect!  Sugar count perfect, urine count perfect, cholesterol count perfect, white and red corps count perfect, weight perfect, lungs perfect, everything perfect - You're obviously on the right way to becoming a centurian!  BUT............: On the other hand, that little thing on the foot you thought just to be a corn, is actually now seen to be a complication of "calcium rejection" and  the bone is doing its best to get out of your body, changing permanently (just like the mouth problem) This necessitates a visit to yet another specialist, who informs you that you will need to go back to the hospital and have "shoe i...

Fwd: By Jove....!

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: ianfrompc1 < iwmpop@gmail.com > Date: 9 Feb 2008 18:08 Subject: By Jove....!        By Jove, that sent the ball a rolling! I would have answered earlier, but it took me an hour or so to read your last missive! I understand your sentiments, and my modest offering of this article on the Blogsite at least achieved, partly, its goal - You read it! That makes one more click, and another 0.00023centimes to my name! If it goes on like that, I should be able to offer you those famous Black Puddings (Boudin noir), together  with some Tripes de Caen (for everyone present, of course), preceeded by some lecker Squid in batter on our next meeting! I must be honest and say that even although I did go to a "semi public school" (that's what they called it) I never developed a taste for this strange "sport"of bickering!         ...

Healthy, no longer wealthy, but wiser-all in blue jeans!

I occasionally have a peek into CNN, that news channel from over there! Today I watched the most powerful Nation on earth try to explain the "misere" in their health system. Now - if this report had been on a Russian or Cuban TV station, I may have been sceptical, but it wasn't, it was on CNN.........! Seems that 62% of Americans (the rest are probably made up of Politicians, members of the Pharma Industry or illegal immigrants) have enormous problems with their Health Insurance, or paying for it.Half of them are not just grossly UNDER-insured, they are not insured at all! Medicare, the almost National Health System, appears to be the best available, but to be accepted by them is not at all a simple matter. You have to be a receiver of welfare checks (I suppose our form of Social Benefit) at which time you're OK. If you work, particularly self employed, you've had it! Assurance upwards of $20,000 a year, and if you've already suffered from some kind of serio...

On this day ............50 years ago.....

Image
A slightly "down memory lane" article. This is Matt Busby, known later as "Sir" Matt Busby, and known eternally as the maker of "Busby Babes" the name given to the Football (Soccer) team he put together in the '50s. Made up of mainly young and relatively unexperienced players, whose transfer price and wages, annually, would not nowadays equal the price of the transfer fee demanded and paid for one player by many Clubs! Do you remember 50 years ago this week? What were YOU doing? It's similar to assassination of President Kennedy, everybody recalls, even if vaguely, where and how they received the news of the "Munich Disaster" in that dreary, rainy day in February 1958. The "babes" had been off to play in Europe, and on their return flight crashed at Munich. I recall that I had never heard of Munich at the time (something I made up for in later life), and I recall that We heard the news, partly, on one of those popular Radios of ...

Gmail - skypeout_history_2008-01-ILLEGAL CALLS FROM MY ACCOUNT SKYPE I know that quite a few of you use the system "Skype" to telephone, particularly abroad. Well - so did I! Click on the link and see what happened to me and my 10euros - paid to Skype, and seemingly used by someone else to call mobiles in France and Morocco! Incidentally, there IS another system called "Voipbuster" (Google it!) even cheaper than Skype, so I guess I'll be going over!

China.........

Image
Mao is dead, a longish time ago, the XXX,000,000,000 Chinese have put his little red book into the family heirlooms. Tourists now wander around the forbidden city, spending their Euros and Dollars, looking at past glories. But.....Welcome to the real world! 18 million immigrant (from poorer regions of China) workers are queuing up to join a queue to get onto a train, which isn't there, to go off and pass their Chinese New Year with family they haven't seen, in some cases, for years! Great, but due to catastrophic weather, the worst for 50 years, nothing is working! Mao was alive 50 years ago, the weather wasn't always kind when he was alive, but the people didn't start revolting, as now! How come? Well, this is the welcome to the real world, more money in the pocket, and it must be spent. In China, you can't spend it on your kids, you're only allowed ONE per couple, you can't spend it on travelling, because it isn't there! You can't even spend it on ...

War-krieg-guerre!

I knew things weren't very friendly between Microsoft and Google, but I didn't know (until yesterday) that the users had to suffer! It seems that if youare a renegade/traitor/spy or whatever (in other words, a simple, normal user) who goes off to another Internet Browser (like myself - I use only Mozilla Firefox, simply because it's the best!) then you will be "punished" by Microsoft! This very site will not be displayed in the same manner if you use Internet Explorer as it is using Firefox! I understand that business is business, but frankly, I would be lost without all the Google programmes I use, all FREE, all great, and Microsoft (with the greater majority of programmes requiring purchase) can go and get st****d! EVERYTHING I want to do I can do with FREE Google programmes, and very often very much better than the Microsoft equivalent. The day, if it ever comes, that Google decide to make things payable will be the day I even remotely will think of changing! T...

Business figures!

At the moment, with all the poor little rich people getting hammered, comes the news that someone, somewhere (they say in a French Bank) has done a fraud to the amount of 7.2 milliarde euros! This set me to thinking "find out finally just how many zero's there are in a milliarde". Not as easy as you may think - it seems that the business world, International as it is supposed to be, has it's problems with the question. Seems that occasionally there are problems from one country to another when using "milliarde"- "billion" - and such words. Some countries insist that a milliarde be called something different, and have 12 zero's behind the qualifying number (after all, 0,000,000,000,000,000:00 still equals 0! The problems, or happiness, start when you put a POSITIVE number at the beginning!) Seems that, in general, a milliarde (in civilised countries) takes 9 zeros, so our little laddy in France has magically "made disappear" the sum of...
