Netscape Navigator 1994 – 2008 RIP

It’s the end of a web era. Poor aul Netscape Navigator has been dying a slow death for a number of years and has now been dealt the final death blow as AOL will no longer support the browser as of tomorrow, March 1st. I feel like we should hold a wake or something. Netscape [...]

Slave Day!

How many of you are working today? Have any of you been given the day off?? Not a chance here. Being on a fixed annual salary today is ‘ride your employee’ day; the day you have to work for free, for no extra pay. Isn’t that nice? It is if you are an employer. It’s [...]

Same old same old

How did they get from one politician voicing his opinion to the country “debating” the issue? Their reporting of Donie Cassidy’s suggestion regarding a reduced driving limit for foreigners is also poor. As [...]

Still at the 3D

Blogging is slow I know and I do apologise though can’t promise it will improve at all in the 4c-able future. What limited free time I have these days is given over primarily to dreaming about how I will spend the 100m I’m sure to eventually win on the Euro lotto. The rest of the [...]
