    Its alright chaps. Having been keeping my eye on this one.

    Yes Sharon is evil and yes she did do what she said in her post. But in all honesty it was planned anyway. It was my idea to get the snip, have said I would get it all along. The way I look at it is that Sharon got cut open twice to bring our 2 kids into the world. We aint having anymore so the least I can do is get my self sorted.

    I asked her to phone the doctors because Im at work all day and its got sod all to do with wimping out and she aint going anywhere near my nads to cut the tubes. Its going to be bad enough just seeing her smug face as I walk around in agony for days afterwards!!

    Let this be a warning to all you chaps out there….. DONT MARRY A BITCH DEMON QUEEN FROM HELL!!! ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

    I think we’ll all agree that the two of you agreed on this procedure, but getting a local and watching/feeling it all happen ? What kind of sicko are you to want to go through it like that !
    I had a lump removed from inside my left arm in the past year, and I had local, and although you don’t feel any pain, you still feel the cutting open, the blood running down, the pulling on your insides and then the cutting. No pain though ๐Ÿ˜€

    Quality stuff, I think my work needs someone like this to get some of the slackers into shape.

    This is about as evil as a big movie villian who tells the dying hero his entire scheme only for the hero to magically recover and thwart this evil doer.

    Come on Morgan, read this post before it’s too late, we’re all rooting for ya !

    Turks, what you need to do is find out why it’s taking this long to open programs:
    You never mentioned what OS the laptop is running, but do the following

    Open up Task Manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC)

    Now go to the performance tab and take note of the Physical Memory. What is the total, available and system cache values ?
    If the available memory is very low, then the systems starts to use the paging file to swopout memory
    Also, under the Commit Charge, what is the Total, Limit and Peak here

    Now also underneath here, check what the CPU usage % is. If this is high, then go to the Process Tab, click on the CPU column to order this from highest to lowest, and check what processes are running high and using up resources.

    It sounds like this system is either very low on memory or something is hogging the CPU, so best to start here before looking at anything else really

    Also, the seller is no longer registered with Ebay. So it sounds like a take-the-money-and-run job.

    Or maybe I’m being too suspicious.

    Yep, noticed that too afterwards. Hopefully the winning bidders waited before paying him, if not, I fear the worst for their money

    Well yes, it was a better performance in that their diving wasn’t crucial like in the Australian game.

    And BTW, France beat Brazil in the 98 WC, and Brazil beat Italy in the 94 WC finals

    Hmmm….think I was watching a different game to you guys. I saw a good competive game between great teams, but also
    I saw Italians doing 3/4 rollovers when they were fouled.
    Saw them play on when one of their own lay injured
    Saw perrotta go for a ball with Lehmann, Lehmann clears it, Perrotta looks to see what happens with the ball, and the next thing he crumples into an injured ball baying for a penalty/card

    Sorry to say but this match just confirms the Italians as a bunch of swandivers, just a pity they won’t meet Portugal as this would be an interesting diving contest !

    Come on FRANCE !!!

    Quants is not much to do with programming mate. Its all about number crunching to model future market movements and analysing trends etc. SERIOUS PROPELLOR HEAD/TREKKIE TERRITORY.

    For example, one of the quants looks exactly like Beaker from the muppets

    Well, there’s also Clarke Kent and the newly arrived Tom Hanks in the Quants area, so looking like someone/something famous will help here, not sure IT skills are required really
