I wanted a Picasso

We emptied the loft this weekend in preparation for the insulation and boarding work. As you might expect there was bits of carpet (Why do people insist on keeping useless scraps of carpet?), old curtains, a tyre, a couple of bits of furniture.... and this:




I would have preferred a Picasso.

"Red Tailed Shark
The red-tailed shark, Epalzeorhynchus (Labeo) bicoloris not a real shark - it is a type of minnow (a cyprinid) that superficially resembles a shark (and is often confused with the rainbow shark - another non-shark). The red-tailed shark can be an aggressive fish and will eat smaller or weaker fish (although it is mostly an algae eater). The red-tailed shark is a popular home aquarium fish. It grows up to about 5 inches (13 cm) and is native to Thailand."

The GF's favourite fish was sadly found dead in the tank over the weekend. It was a beautiful interesting fish that had grown to a good 3 inches long. This was the final straw on a hobby that she has enjoyed for some years and the remaining fish will be taken back to the store and the tank gotten rid of.

We had only returned from looking at new tanks earlier that day as well. Sucks.

Computers... I have decided that after umpteen years of owning one that I hate them.

More specifically I hate networking them.

More specifically I hate networking them under AOL and using Netgear pieces of crap.

I blame the GF for AOL (The contract runs out in Feb 08... I am counting the days). I blame AOL for Netgear.

After two days of brain melting tweak this/break that on the GF's pc I have (I hope) finally managed to get it stable.

Now my machine which has been stable since day one is disconnecting every 20 minutes or so.

Thats it I'm off to JD's to ninja-steal some of his happy pills.

Oh and as a long term EQ player before stupidly leaving it for Warcraft, me 'n 'er were stoked to see this... Ahhh Iksar how we loved thee.

Suppose I had better get those PC's fixed before it comes out then *mutters*.
