Lots of docs here on GNU and Unix development tools. I found this site while searching for docs on make.

Vim Cookbook

This Iptables firewall script looks promising. I haven’t had time to get my head around Iptables yet so this script may get me started!

Zimran picks up on Joel’s article <a href="http://www.winterspeak.com/2002_06_01_archive.html#

Another search engine claims to index more pages than Google. I tried it, it hasn’t indexed this site yet, Google has (can’t remember if I submitted it to Google though!) and it does seem to have a wide range of pages indexed.

Daniel pointed me at this Joel article on Open Source. Slashdot has picked up on it and you can read the comments there. Whatever about the comments, the article makes good reading!

Just downloaded a few MP3s off RKO and here’s three that I’ll recommend: (these are only extracts, visit the site to download the full tunes!)

1. Firelord – Symphonic
2. Great Giana Sisters, tune 3 (Acoustic Style)
3. Treasure Island Dizzy

Irma discovered another 9/11 conspiracy.

Our local supermarket, Super Valu, went up in flames this morning. I passed it in the car half an hour ago, smoke was blowing over the road and all I could see was black burnt material inside the shop! Guards and fire brigade were at the scene and I heard it mentioned on the national news a few minutes later at home.

There’s going to be one hell of a party when the Irish Team return tomorrow night!

We’re out of the World Cup when Ireland was beaten 3-2 in penalties against Spain. It looked like Spain were playing for penalties for much of extra time but Ireland played well from the second half on. The Irish team did great to get so far!
I rang Cachu in Madrid and she wasn’t even watching the match! He brothers weren’t even interested!

Padre Pio is declared a saint today. Many miracles are attributed to him and objects belonging to him, but sometimes a person’s time is up and even he cannot intervene with God.

Garret’s going cold-turkey to catch up on work commitments, good luck!

We’re playing Spain on Sunday, must ring Cachu and see what she thinks of her country’s chances against us!

I forgot to say, I saw “Unfaithful” the other night. It’s crap, don’t go see it. Of course, it’s been out for ages so I presume everyone else knew that already!
