Why did you feel compelled to tell us? You couldn't get a Twitter account?

I'm going to download some incompatible data to the ol' porcelain server later...

I figured there will be some sucker here who will get upset about me downloading cd iso files.

you obviously aren't that sucker. :)
[ you most likely correctly figured it would be some linux distro ]

Well, it is more of a question than a statement. But the question does concern CD images and the downloading thereof. I am sure a question is just as much something to say than a statement per say. But not as strong. Unless, I ask it loudly and then it will be quite strong. Ether that or obnoxious. Almost as obnoxious as one of those people who ramble on for hours and hours and hours and hours and hours without saying much of anything. Yeah, I hate those people too. Ooo, you know who else I hate. Are those people who post on message boards and do not use paragraphs. Their posts are just one long string of runon sentences in one block of text Yep, drives me nuts Yes sirree I hate
those people. Then there are those people who post to a topic of conversation and never really address the topic at hand. Their posts have nothing even remotely to do with the topic the original poster started. Why do they do that? I have no Idea. They just ramble on and on and on and on about absolutely nothing. It is like a Seinfeld episode only not funny. Not funny at all. After all, don't those people have a life.

Anyways, what was I saying. Oh well, I don't remember so I guess have a nice day. :)

Do you know what I hate? I hate it when people keep rambling on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and not really getting to anythign at all. OOOh, that just pisses me off. I mean to spend the time to post something, at least have something to post. Instead it just keeps going and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and it just bugs the cr@p outta me. Geez people, instead of rambling on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, without anything to contribute why not just forego the posting overall.
Now, I can continue to go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, but I feel it unneccesary to do that much typing myself. Theer seems to be no valid reason to continue on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, without even a point to add. Geez,

[b]Chairman:[/b] Well to discuss the implications of that sketch and to consider the moral problems raised by the law-enforcement methods involved we have a duck, a cat and a lizard. Now first of all I'd like to put this question to you please, lizard. How effective do you consider the legal weapons employed by legal customs officers, nowadays?
(shot of lizard; silence)
Well while you're thinking about that, I'd like to bring the duck in here, and ask her, if possible, to clarify the whole question of currency restrictions, and customs regulations in the world today.
(shot of duck; silence)
Perhaps the cat would rather answer that? (shot of cat; silence)
No? Lizard?
(shot of lizard again and then back) No. Well, er, let's ask the man in the street what he thinks.

(Cut to film: vox pops.)

[b]French Au Pair:[/b] I am not a man you silly billy.

[b]Man on Roof:[/b] I'm not in the street you fairy.

[b]Man in Street:[/b] Well, er, speaking as a man in the street... (a car runs him over) Wagh!

[b]Man:[/b] What was the question again?

Voice Over: Just how relevant are contemporary customs regulations and currency restrictions in a modern expanding industrial economy? (no answer) Oh never mind.

[b]Pepperpot:[/b] Well I think customs men should be armed, so they can kill people carrying more than two hundred cigarettes.

[b]Man:[/b] (getting up from a deck chair and screaming with indignation and rage: he has a knotted handkerchief on his head and his trousers are rolled up to the knees) Well I, I think that, er, nobody who has gone abroad should be allowed back in the country. I mean, er, blimey, blimey if they're not keen enough to stay here when they're 'ere, why should we allow them back, er, at the tax-payers' expense? I mean, be fair, I mean, I don't eat squirrels do I? I mean well perhaps I do one or two but there's no law against that, is there? It's a free country. (enter a knight in amour) I mean if I want to eat a squirrel now and again, that's me own business, innit? I mean, I'm no racialist. I, oh, oh...

( The knight is carrying a raw chicken. The man apprehensively covers his head and the knight slams him in the stomach with the chicken.)

[b]Woman:[/b] I think it's silly to ask a lizard what it thinks, anyway.

[b]Chairman:[/b] Why?

[b]Woman:[/b] I mean they should have asked Margaret Drabble.

[b]Young Man:[/b] (very reasonably) Well I think, er, customs people are quite necessary, and I think they're doing quite a good job really

(Wow, all those [b's], most code I've written in ages!) :D

Is there an icon for pi$$ing yourself? Thanks Faradhi, needed that one, geat timing!

by tig2

Will you burn me a set too?
:D

I finally found the OSS for Mac sites. Yippee!

by oz_media

What files (assuming nix ISO's)and do you have fast seeds? :p

I have a few running in the background still,I think, unless they're done.

Pi%% on them, the world has become a better place due to the ability to rapidly exchange and share information and ideas.

As good old Billy Shakespeare said: If music be the food of love, play on.

Now I know what you're getting at: The new "TR Torrents" forum is coming soon to a PC near you, LOL. Don't think C-Net would go for it . Would be funny though.

by charliespencer

You know, that's an interesting thought. I don't do anything with torrents and I'm usually the behind the curve on tech adoption, so I wonder if anyone is already doing it. It could be the Next Big Thing to get traffic to corporate sites. The technophobic music industry ought to do it themselves for fifty cents a song.

Also, nice holiday avatar. I wish I had even the most basic graphic skills.

by oz_media

Corporate torrents, not yet that I know of. Corporations don't want to face the legal repercussions that would come from many countries.

As for the avatar, thanks but it's a pretty simple one. I have a whole bunch now on my picture trail account, I just swap them out as the season changes. :)
