Mark’s posted some excellent photos of a council tax protest in the UK. Love the “GO” one!
What are the neighbours up to?
I gave my neighbour a lift into town this morning and found out that his son is an aeronautical engineer in Germany working for Airbus! I knew he was in Germany but not what he was doing but it seems that he’s working on the Airbus A380!
Looks like that particular plane won’t be flying into Ireland any time soon however, it’s a monster of a machine!
Pic of the Day
Isn’t this photo one of the cutest kitten pictures ever? Either that, or he’s preparing to jump and snatch at the hand of the photographer.. Yes, I know cats, they’re evil sometimes! *grin*
The Grey Album.. What would Tubridy think?
I wonder what Ryan Tubridy, a self proclaimed Beatles fan, will think of the Grey Album?
It’s a remix of the Beatles White Album and Jay-Z’s Black Album.
Somehow I think he’d be rolling in his proverbial grave if he heard about it! Personally, it’s not to my taste but I did find “99 Problems” entertaining! 🙂
Irish Blogs
Hmm, here’s a slightly outdated list of Irish blogs. It’s missing all but one of the blogs hosted here, and my own blog is listed at the old site. Still, found an interesting blog by an American in Cork!
And here’s a blog that syndicates lots of Irish blogs, including this one!
Wow! Hailstone shower outside.. I am not going out to Blarney to put up that damn boundary fence tonight.
It's snowing!
Yay! It’s snowing outside! Woo! It snowed this morning too, and it was beautiful to look out onto the garden and see the flakes drop slowly to the grass.
Ireland’s weird that way. We go through a mostly mild and wet winter and snow falls in Spring!
Now I’m at work, despite the fact that I sit right next to a window, I found out from the Internet that it’s snowing right outside.. Thanks Christian for the heads up! *grin*
:)
That’s all Owen!
Resurrecting Dead Harddrives?
Ah yes, the old “freeze the drive” trick.. never tried that, but it’s one of the suggestions in this Slashdot discussion. May try to shake my dead disk later. *shrug*
CSS Debugger
This css debugger looks very useful to try and figure out what the hell’s happening on certain sites. Works fine in Moz FF, thanks to Scripty Goddess for the link.
Edit in 2024: updated links to archive.org links.
Pinguin, revised!
Ok, if you’re at all squemish this version of the Pinguin game may not be for you! It’s err, slightly cruel and horrific, but funny in a strange way..
