Thing is, I reeeealy hate being the center of attention. I'd be horribly embarrassed doing something like this.

You'd only be the center of attention for four minutes, like you said. And don't worry, the person interviewing you would be getting half the attention. Go for it, dude. You and Ian have put alot of time, money, and effort into this site. Enjoy SOME kind of attention for it. Everyone needs their 15 minutes of fame, brother.

This morning, at six am, I got a text message from a hottie. She wants to go out with me on Saturday for dinner, tea, and a movie. Now, this IS the US, so the invite out for tea caught me a little off guard, but hey, I'm adaptable. Did I mention, she's a friggin' hottie? I'd post her pic up here, but I only have it on my e-mail. If somebody wants to help me out, I'll be happy to show the forum exactly WHO asked me out.


Did I mention she's hot?

Ah go for it Graham. Its only four minutes and you can prep all you like for it. Its your 15... er 4 minutes of fame.

My PC died last night. So this morning, I bought a new one and am back... sorta. It's gonna take me a long time to get back to snuff.

What happened specifically? BIOS failed? Processor crapped out?

Motherboard self destructed? Hard drive crashed? Power supply burn out?

I'm just trying to rationalize buying a whole new computer if only one component failed. Of course, if you've got the money for it, why not?

Not a clue what happened to the hard drive. It just... wouldn't boot up. *Shrug* I'm PC-illiterate.

What did you do with the broken system?

I put it in the corner of my office.

When you turned on the power, did any lights or fans come on? If so, did you hear any odd error beeps?

My first guess would be either the power supply or the RAM went bad.

Look at it this way Graham. It'll be a further 4 minutes of your life where you get to talk about Trek....something that I think, juuust think you might enjoy

.....and Mark, stop doing impressions of Rom

Yeah, the lights and fan came on, along with this really disturbing whirring noise.
