Hours Minutes of fun with the most joyless of childhood toys:Online Etch-a- Sketch

Etch a sketch

Yes, I did just draw that, and no I don’t want it psycho-analysed thanks ;-)

Mind you, have you seen some of the works of art people have created on this thing? Unbelievable….

This could come in useful:

Brick

Stressed out by your work colleagues? Family getting you down? Kids playing on your lawn again? Don’t worry, just throw The Brick at them, and laugh wildly at the stricken looks upon their faces.

Right up until the point they realise it’s only foam, when you need to start running….

Here’s something to waste your lunch hour with:

Space Invaders

I can actually remember playing on a genuine Space Invaders cabinet, which dates me quite a bit I guess. Hey ho.

Notice that I lost my ship, just as I took the screenshot :-(

All My Faves

Just about every website you might ever want to visit, all on one page. News, sport, weather, shopping ,games, it’s quite mind boggling actually. Probably faster than googling it….

Very little.

It’s Fathers Day in the UK on Sunday, and if money’s tight this is the card to give:

Tesco Value Card

(Anyone who says ‘Is this real?’ will be publicly mocked.)

I love Malcolm in the Middle, and I think that the mother Lois, is probably a role model for all woman kind. I know Stpeh aspires to her level of parenting :-)

In this clip, Lois has found her teenage sons porn collection and decides to edit them somewhat. The horror, the horror…..

Some people will do anything just to advance their Elf by a few points or something.

Mind you, you gotta love the line ‘ Also not adverse to the idea of groups/anal’. :shock:

As an internet user you’re probably well aware that you need anti-virus and firewall protection, but how many of you do regular checks for spyware?

Spyware is the name for all sorts of programs that can be snuck onto your computer by other websites, and can range from fairly innocuous, if annoying, merely reporting your surfing habits so as to target advertising through to the more serious forms that can attempt to steal passwords or financial data etc.

To combat this, you need anti-spyware programs such as Spy Sweeper from Webroot, which can detect, remove and even prevent spyware from infecting your PC. It is Webroot’s proud boast that Spy Sweeper is the most award winning anti-spyware software available, and their list of awards  backs this up. They have so far received over 45 awards from the likes of PC World, PC Pro, PC Magazine and C Net, and having used the software myself, I can say they are deserving recipients.

When I used Spy Sweeper for the first time, it found an amazing amount of spyware on my system, with over 1000 instances, all at varying levels of risk. Spy Sweeper removed them all, first time, and with no problems. It’s resident scanner then prevented more from being downloaded, and with regular updates it kept my PC spyware free thereafter. If you visit a lot of websites (and who doesn’t?) then you need a viable anti-spyware solution, and Spy Sweeper is it.

Top 20 unusual homicides including:

Alex Mijtus, 36 years old, was killed by his wife, armed with a 20 inch long vibrator. Mrs Mijtus had had enough of her husband’s strange sex practices and one night during a prolonged period of “fun” she snapped, pushing all 20 inches of the vibrator into Alex’s anus until it ruptured several internal organs and caused severe bleeding.

Debby Mills-Newbroughton, 99 years old, was killed as she crossed the road. She was to turn 100 the next day but, crossing the road with her daughter to go to her own birthday party, her wheel chair was hit by the truck delivering her birthday cake.

Peter Stone, 42 years old, was murdered by his eight year old daughter, who he had just sent to her room with no dinner. Young Samantha Stone felt that if she couldn’t have dinner no one should, and she promptly inserted 72 rat poison tablets into her father’s coffee as he prepared dinner. The victim took one sip pnd promptly collapsed (Samantha Stone was given a suspended sentence as the judge felt she didn’t realise what she was doing, until she tried to poison her mother using the same method one month later). 

Don’t know if these are all true, but some are certainly inventive. When your time’s up, your time’s up….
