TFIFriday

Currently listening to: The Killers A lot, and I mean, a lot a lot a lot. Somebody Told Me has to be one of the best songs I've heard in a very long time. And Andy You're A Star... well, it just says it all doesn't it ;)

QoTD: Does an agnostic, dyslexic, insomniac lay awake at night wondering if there really is a dog?

Mood: Very good thanks, still over the moon about the scan results, its like a MASSIVE weight has been lifted off my chest :D

On a funny note, Michael Peter Balzary, AKA Flea from The Red Hot Chili Peppers, plays Needles in Back to The Future 2 and 3 I noticed the other night. I saw him in the scene where Marty is about to race against Needles, where he ends up going backwards, and notices that if he had raced him, he would have slammed into a Rolls Royce. I waited till the end of the film, and the credits, and sure enough, Flea plays Needles!!



Hopefully a mate of mine is going to get his webpage up and running soon, and we are planning on keeping a log of stupid requests we get in our relevant tech positions. But until then, Here's one I had yesterday:
Lets refer to this one (coz it is the first) as L-user-1. All future messages about said L-user will obviously use the same handle, coz trust me, there are a few of them that this person brings up.

L-user-1: Why do we have 2 distribution lists, one called the (prounounced theeeeee) circulation list, and one called the (pronounced thuh) restricted circulation list.

Grepus: That's because one goes to everyone in the group, where as the other only goes to the heads of department and offices within the group.

L-user-1: So the restricted list goes to everyone, and the circulation list goes to the heads, right, gottit [L-user-1 leaves before I can explain]

Grepus [to self]: *sigh* I hope a big financial report doesnt end up going to everyone in the group, else there will be a few hundred people wanting salary increases... never mind *sigh*

Thats all for today ;)

  • Flea in Back to the Future? I can't believe you notice things like that too! I thought I was the only one. As an example, the Norwich Union Direct ad just came on (Let us quote you happy) and the guy doing the voiceover is Suggs! I always pick up on things like that. Hope your heads feeling better lately. Keep blogging!
