    Yeah. The 8 links a day, 7 from Google Video are getting a tad over-played.

      Yeah for me it's not that I don't like him. We just know nothing about him. He's like a bot. - Links to google video on commercials or other stuff. - Random links. - Posts about women and one mainly. That's about it. We know nothing else about him. He's made no real effort to fit in or make himself more well known. I have no idea what even one of his interests are except for "Gold-Digger" and I'm assuming he likes commercials especially those about cars. Again I have to infer most of this. I just get annoyed at being the outlet for his thoughts, moods and discoveries. It's like the lounge is his conscience (SP?) and that's it. We really don't know anything else about him. I don't even really know if he's a programmer. I've seen 2 posts from him briefly about C++ and that's it. Both in the lounge. I mean off the top of my head here goes: Jeffry - Photography and 3d programming. Jeremy - OGL, nutrition, sports and pondering real estate. Maunder - Bikes that would make Trump flinch at signing the check. CP. Australia. Nish - C++/CLI, chest pain. Driving...fast...really Fast...FAST. Ravi - Ham sandwiches but not so much anymore yet a true love for coding. Enjoys it a lot. Shog - Cphog but I'd love to let him cook a meal for me. I bet the man can make some tasty food. Dismantling laptops. Paul Watson - Photography, sometimes cricket, sometimes rugby and feeding edmund or ... well it's feeding something. Colin - He's recently got a new phone. I mean I could go down the list of people here and keep posting things about all of them. From broken PC's, Joan's Linux experiements pick just about any memember and you know something about their lives and their interests. With link all you are left is to conclude that car commercials and "Gold Digger" are his life. Both of those are now old subjects. Very old.

              A good song, but I always found it tremendously ironic that such an idealist couldn't keep the Beetles together.

              an idealist, sure, but he was still human. and the Beatles were going to break up with or without an idealist as a member. their original manager died and they couldn't agree on a new manager; George was upset about his role (only 2 songs per record and no singles) and had started working outside the Beatles; Apple records was a mess; they all wanted to take the band in different directions; nobody else wanted anything to do with John's ideals at the time, etc..

                  Don't listen to the detractors link. The world needs people like you. Normal folk can wake up each morning, look at themselves in the mirror and think - "it could be worse, I could be like Link2006."

                      No I knew it was a few months a go it's just that I *did* know. I know stuff about you. You're here. Sometimes more and sometimes less but you talk about life when you are here.

                                    Actually no, tried to find someone who wants to buy it. Going to upgrade to an FAC version so I'm thinking of selling it and then buying an FAC Classic version which will have a few more shots per charge (and the length is slightly longer but preferable for me).  Hopefully I can make enough on the sale to cover the cost of the rifle itself and then I'll only have to pay for scope / silencer / charging bottle etc.


                                    As of how to accomplish this I wouldn't have a clue at the moment and I'm too lazy to google it

                                        No I knew it was a few months a go it's just that I *did* know. I know stuff about you. You're here. Sometimes more and sometimes less but you talk about life when you are here.

                                          Hope I'm making sense. Do you get what I'm trying to say or am I just a raving looney? Even if you do get my point I'm probably still a raving looney. No I don't take notes on people either. I just can memorize stuff very easily. Microsoft product keys? Read it twice and I've got it memorized for good. My brain just works that way.:-D So when people post (like you did when you were looking for a place to live and when you pointed out that good ASP developers don't just live in the U.S.) comments and such I'm able to remember it... I can remember *everything* unless, UNLESS it's something really important and my wife asked me to do it.:doh: For some reason I cannot remember those things and she knows how good my memory *is* so she really :suss: with me.
