Came across this via Robin Blandford’s blog bytesurgery.com/gearedup. There’s a campaign moving through Europe to encourage people to store an emergency contact number, such as that of a close friend or family member, under the heading ICE (In Case of Emergency). Seemingly this was started as a nationwide campaign in the UK (it’s the first [...]
What a vile vile act. In Germany Police are holding a 39 year old woman in custody after the bodies of 9 new-born babies were discovered on her property. So far she has admitted that they are hers but has not admitted to killing them. Even if we give her the benefit of the doubt [...]
I ran into my favourite Finnish celeb the other day. We were just going to the supermarket and who should I see coming out but the gorgeous Janna Pelkonen, ex-host of a computer game show “Tilt”. And shortly afterwards we saw her again in the chippers. She’s actually from this city but i’d never seen her before. And also from this city are Krisse, a comedian who has her own comedy talk show and Jari Litmanen the footballer.
Ah now this is ridiculous, in Australia officials have basically banned the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas over these stoopid ‘explicit sex scenes’ which can be viewed by anyone with access to a special game mod. The official classification for the game has been revoked which means it cannot be legally sold, hired, advertised [...]
As well as a new blog script I have also been planning some new content for Ráiméis. When it comes to learning languages (in this care Irish) motivation (or rather lack of-) is a big problem. I have all the books/tapes etc but never use them. So a couple of week ago I decided that [...]

Right here we are … WordPress in all her glory. A few things you should note: • template isn’t near done, this was some template I downloaded which I bastardised, colours look a bit dodgy • categories don’t work just yet, I need to edit every single fucking post (450+) and manually set the category, [...]
WordPress testing still ongoing, just working on the template … trying to decide if I will stick with this current template (even though it’s plain I kinda like it) or if I should try something new. There might be some disruption over the weekend…
Todays question: Are you a problem solver or a day dreamer? Many of us have our own regular thinking times; mowing the lawn, driving the car, going for a walk, sitting on the dunny, having a quiet cup of tea, shaving ones head (yeah that’s me); all opportune times for pondering lifes little puzzles or [...]
Ok, this is an old one, but since Tyrone lost at the weekend (Armagh took the Ulster title) I thought this might cheer them up … or then again maybe not … Tyrone manager Micky Harte sends scouts out round the World looking for a new forward to replace Peter Canavan and hopefully win the [...]
