For the sake of it!

oK oK, ITS been ages since my last post, but Ive been busy with other things (not necessarily work related) and to be honest I still dont have much to post about, Very little entertainment lately only I finally watched "the departed" and have to say it was bangin!!
I do have something to rant about now that I think of it. The bloody NCT craic is gone to shit!!! Ive had my car for a good three or four years now and Ive put it through at least 1 test. So Im standing in the house the other day and decide to look out at my tax, insurance and NCT to see when they are due, Then I notice that my NCT has been out since the end of February!! WTF! The morons don't even bother notifying you when its out anymore. I decided to ring them and the girl says to me "sometimes we dont get around to mailing everybody!" Although now it seems they dont bother mailing anyone because anyone ive been talking to lately has had the same experience. What a load of sh1t. Ive organised one for the 23rd of this month and I need a few new tyres, a set of anti-roll-bar bushings and a service, its also due a timing belt in another 10K miles. Thats right, I now have 170'000 miles on the clock. Hopefully I'l get the 1/4 of a million out of her. She's a 95 corolla saloon and I love her to bits!!!!! I'l post a picture some day!!!!

Oops.

So I my dropped my Laptop and made shit of it. Well I didnt but my girlfriend did, She was working on it and had it charging and tripped on the powercord which sent the laptop crashing to the ground. I taught the ac power cable would have just pulled out from the back of the laptop but unfortunately not (It was at the wrong angle to do this). I was missing a few of the rubber feet from the bottom aswell so I suppose this helped to shift it off the table. It still works but the lid is completely cracked off from one hinge. I havent tested all the other hardware yet but I got a quote from dell for €233 to have the lid fixed. Il post pictures tomorrow. So then I see Aldi have a fairly alright spec laptop this Thursday for €799 and Im considering it at the minute, comes with:
Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core Processor T2060 1.60GHz 533 MHz FSB 1MB L2 Cache
1,024MB DDR2 SDRAM
120GB Hard Disk
15.4" TFT WXGA Widescreen Display
Wireless LAN 802.11 a/b/g

And Lidl have one aswell for €999 that comes with XP

PS2 for sale aswell

Im also selling this ive got about 11 decent games to go with it. If you want it or know anyone who might, leave a comment and we can sort something out. Comes with 2 dualshock controllers, Memory card and the games aswell. Im going to buy a Wii in the near future.

Bluetooth Handsfree Car Kit for sale!!

Sony Ericsson HCB-400 Bluetooth Handsfree Car Kit!! I just bought this last week, however it has remained unopened and is as new! The reason I didnt install it is I was given a bluetooth Car radio (parrot Rythm and Blue) that can be used instead of a car kit to make and take calls. Im selling it for €120. If your interested you can contact me by email. barry.fitzharris@o2.ie.

A professional installation is probably the best way to get it in although a self install seems to be fairly easy. Works with all Bluetooth enabled phones.

If you have any questions, il be happy to help you out

Uncyclopedia.org

Take a look at this site. I heard ray darcy talking about it this morning. Its brilliant its like a piss take of wikipedia. Below is the result of a lookup on Dublin

Dublin
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
“Butter is the last refuge of the unimaginative”

Capital of South Ulster, parts of Wicklow, Meath and Kildare. The only city in the World to be made entirely out of butter, except for the city hall, which is made of I-still-can't-believe-it's-not-butter. This led to the Margarine Wars of the late 20th century. Dublin and most of Ireland was rocked by the rebels trying to overcome the margarine rule of northern Ireland. Most of the population of Dublin died quite horrendously during various skirmishes. Over the years, this led to the Irish being replaced by the Polish.

Also the only city in the World populated and run entirely by heroin addicts. Dublin inhabitants were usually called Dubliners or Scangers, before the 2005 spelling reform enacted by The Nolan Sisters, which stated they are to be called Polish.

Dublin is popular with toast lovers and scone affectionados, who flock to the city on St. Sneaky Pete's day to cover their foodstuffs with the centre's fine civic monuments, for instance the 'point with no point' with butter.

Drugs are bad!!

Ok so if you've ever dabbled in some light (or heavy) narcotics, you might want to take a look at this video. Spiders have proven to be the best test cases to test the effects of drugs on ones ability to do everyday tasks. This is brilliant!!!

Worst presents of all time.

Fisher-Price Power Wheels Motorcycle

The Fisher-Price Power Wheels Motorcycle is one of those toys kids salivate over for years. Even adults can barely contain their jealousy when the little brat from down the block whizzes by on that shiny plastic hog. But the ride wasn't always so smooth. In fact, on some models, there was a rather serious glitch.



QUEASY RIDER From zero to broken arm in 39 seconds


Eager youngsters who gunned the throttle found that it often stayed gunned, stuck in a petrifying state of perma-acceleration. Presumably, the child on the motorcycle was then taken on a hellish, intestine-twisting scream ride. At one point, he or she would face choices unthinkable except in an Evel Knievel meets Knightrider crossover episode: Do I jump? Or do I ride it out and see if I can clear the gully? Is it sentient? Can it be reasoned with?

In August 2000, Fisher-Price recalled 218,000 of the Power Wheels motorcycles, warning: "Children can be injured when the motorcycle ride-ons fail to stop and strike other objects." Stunt children everywhere observed a moment of silence.

Life threatening SatNav (taken from "The Register")

Two ambulance drivers' unswerving obedience to their satnav system ended up turning a 30 minute hospital transfer into an eight hour, 430 mile wild goose chase.
The crew were supposed to be moving a male mental patient from King George hospital in Ilford (UK) to Mascalls Park hospital near Brentwood, a 12 mile journey, but a faulty satnav system directed the London Ambulance crew 200 miles off course - and they ended up in Warley, Manchester.
