I'll be sweating over the first footie results of the new season to see how my fantasy football team is doing. Preferably in the pub :)

Thanks Weiye :) Someone I know saw this link[^]. Of course, even if you can translate it, there's no way of knowing how reliable the site is :). Just interested to see what it has to say.

Not got any really concrete plans. Probably just the normal run of the mill kind of things like washing, going to the supermarket and so on. I am planning to go to the gym this weekend and get their heart rate monitor and then adjust the program accordingly. I weighed myself this morning and am slightly disappointed that I don't seem to be making any progress so far this week. I am really hoping that the fat is reducing and is being replaced by muscle - I managed to pull my belt in an extra notch this morning so something is at least reducing. Well, two more gym sessions before my Monday morning weigh in, so I suppose there is still time for a few more grams to come off, especially as the weekend sessions can be extended as I don't have to go into work afterwards. When I have the time I add a swimming session to the end of the workout. It's great!

Running in the Midsummer Night's Run on Saturday! :cool: I'm a terrible runner, but slowly getting better. I've only once ever completed a 5K where I didn't stop and walk at least part of it. Perhaps tomorrow will be the second... An expert is somebody who learns more and more about less and less, until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.

Tonight and part of tomorrow, finish mowing my yard. Tonight, go camping with my kids. Tomorrow, move wiring in a 3-gang box to an adjacent wall, and mark layout lines for new walls. That should just about chew up my weekend. Then I can come back to work for some rest!

Settling into my new house. :-D :jig: I finally will have moved the last of my things tonight, and will spend the weekend organizing/cleaning/throwing away things. The fun part will be going furniture shopping at some point. I'm hoping to find some nice old or antique furniture that needs a little work. BW The Biggest Loser

Now what did I do with all those AOL CDs? It seems I can never find things when a use finally comes up for them...:sigh: "My kid was Inmate of the Month at Adobe Mountain Juvenile Corrections Center" - Bumper Sticker in Bullhead City

Try http://babelfish.altavista.com[^] I even did it for you here[^] I use it occasionally for Korean translations. It turns out to be accurate enough to get the general idea. Hope this helps. Cliff Success is measured by ones ability to mask complexity with simplicity.

Megan - if you're interested in the EOS20D (what's 'public' about it yet), this may be of interest... PS - D70 - nice - if I were buying a DSLR, that's the one I'd go for :-) Stuart Dootson 'Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p'
