I (like the SoR) was a little concerned about the radiation dose to the model but I read that the images are all Photoshopped from existing digital images – no models were exposed to radiation at all.

Through a link from a link I found this brill cartoon site that just tickled me.  Here’s a small selection of my favourites

Maybe I see something of my self here…

We’ve just had a team building day at work.  While I didn’t feel like murdering the facilitator I could have damaged some of my colleagues!

This last one just amused me.  Have a read at the commentary that goes with it from the site.

Who could possibly design a phone that can’t be tethered?  Possibly the company that designed a phone that didn’t do 3G when it had been pretty much the standard for the last 4 years.  Could this be the same company that created a phone that can’t do more than one thing at once?  I did read somewhere that it can actually multi-task but it just does it differently, one task at a time.

The author does have a point thought.  Ever tried to use free wifi in a coffee shop or pub or any of the other places where wifi is supposed to be available?  It is certainly not reliable, or easy to connect to in a great many cases.  It takes patience, skill and a knowledge of the operating system’s more advanced features (that’s the iPhone out then ).

That’s all for now.  I’m off to delete all the gmail people that register to post comments on this blog.  I know they are all spam bots because none of them have websites of their own!

Thank goodness this government has noticed that funding people to have copious amounts of children is not a good way to balance the books. It is those of us who don’t have children who are contributing most in tax so it is about time we got the benefit in return.  After the budget yesterday I’ll be £46.47 better off a year!

• Procrastinators
• The easily distracted
• Compulsive web-surfers
• People with a long list of very short tasks (also know as mosquitoes)
• People having trouble chipping away at very large tasks

In other words, me.  Like the page says, you do one job or task solidly for 10 minutes then have a break for 2 minutes.  Then you repeat the process again, and again for a whole hour, hence the *5.  Of course you can’t just start, well, I couldn’t.  I didn’t have a stop watch.  Like any good procrastinator I couldn’t stop procrastinating until I had all the tools.   A few searches later and I found iTick, an app for my HD2. Cool little programme that acts as a timer and chronograph.  Don’t ask me what the difference is.

I think I found the link to the procrastination hack on Flipping Heck which is another really good website.  I was looking for tips on using Outlook categories as contexts.  The site is full of useful hints and tips for using GTD and a tonne of other stuff like managing meetings and organising agendas.  Shame it’s not been updated for just over a year.

Anyway, I’m already to get started.  Or at least I will be tomorrow.

Speed Typing test

This gives me 251 points (no idea what this means or how it is calculated) and position 79,056 of 558,845 in the ranking list.  That means my typing is in the top 15%.
