So said the news item yesterday...... Maybe it's because we're so easily amused.... Surely can't be because Gina is Numero Uno Rich-Bitch on the planet..... It would take the average Australian 465 THOUSAND YEARS to match her PERSONAL income for this one year. NINETEEN BILLION and counting. Come on, people....now you really know the reason for the Carbon Tax. She ain't gonna give it up willingly....even wanted to hold off on giving it to ...
This one ain't mine....it's my mate Dave's. He's always wanted one...so now he has one. Apparently it's the earliest example in Australia. It's LHD and complete...the 'ends' are off as they were repainted.....and he's nutting out some wiring [he should know what he's doing.....if you note what's in the background]. The bit I like is that in Back to the Future you had to get to 88mph....... That's probably somewhat meani...

Some said it wouldn't happen.....that'll be because 'one or two' attempts went a bit wobbly with site updates, etc...Many "appy polly loggies" [as Alex would say - ACO]...

It's been too many years.....should'a got 'em probably 5 years ago....but you know....you get slack/diverted/etc.... I've had them since I was about 15 .... I blame school/study for now having crap eyesight....used to be able to spot a Wedgie 2 miles up in the air currents [Aussies will know what that is]....but not anymore. Needless to say things went downhill....getting the script.... First....the original optometrist has long-since moved on...so it's a new one.......
Melbourne, Tuesday night....Rod Laver Arena..... Whole bunch of 50-somethings in the audience....packed house..... Roger Waters at his brilliant best. The 'light show' alone was worth it. Stick it on your 'bucket list'....
Bewdy, cobber.... [actually no-one ever says that - at least not these days]. There's a few of 'us' out there..... .....just remember to always wear your magnetic boots...

Stardock is more than 'just' Gaming, or for that matter 'just' GUI skinning. Stardock's sites [Interests/Community] are about BOTH. Connectivity between Stardock's Communities is fundamental to the success/continuity of their Sites/Forums. "Everything Else" is just one of the Forum Intersections - and it's for, as it's title suggests - Everything Else. For those who prefer NOT to partake with such 'off-topic' subjects their ONLY potential for i...
OK....getting frustrated with frame rates in FSX [am still skinning planes] ...and the 'old' XFX GTX285 isn't the biggest kid on the block anymore. Either way it'll cost a few bob...but the 'boss' says I'm flying around enough to warrant it.... and F1 2010 will look pretty bloody spiffy too..... The MoBo is an ASUS [P6T se] ... the Monitor's ASUS too...so am leaning to ASUS vers of the cards....[devil you know] PSU won't be taxed....it was 'future...

Seems all new uploads there are being 'gift wrapped' with a proprietary installer...complete with toolbars etc that one 'must' opt out of if all you want is the proggy you were hoping to get. Time perhaps to find a new source of your proggy downloads.... I'd checked out that flash cookie proggy and it had been wrapped....pain and a half.

On July 24th, 2001 I received an email from Johanne Chaine [Alexandrie] informing me I'd been accepted as Wincustomize.com's newest Wizop. The only reason I 'remember' the date is that somehow I managed NOT to lose the email after a decade of new systems/computers/whatever. The list of CC's is a veritable who's who of the world of Skinning way back then. iMike, Shoggot, Renato C. Veras Jr, Patrick Ford, Migellito, David Knott, Brad Wardell, Kris Kwilas, Sn...
I am lousy with dates and such.....but as long as I remember my Wedding Anniversary and Terry's birthday all is well.... One date that Hankers reminded me of [dunno how he does it] is June 24 [and it is that already now, here in Australia, so....] Happy Birthday, Frogboy. Wincustomize.com's [and all of Stardock's] members are all "numbered" [eg, I'm '23'] and so it goes that Brad is Number '1'. But he's more than '...
