Calamity!
Posted Jul 12, 2000
After amyriad of different ajustments made to my computer, I've managed to right-royally-shank it up the ass!
Every time I boot it up, it tells me that explorer has caused an invalid page fault, then doesn't open windows.
I am now only going to be able to access hg from internet cafe's and other people's computers.If anyone knows how I can fix this without reinstating the master image, PLEASE TELL ME!

Age
Posted Jun 25, 2000
I don't think I've ever had to disclose my age on here, I suppose it's just as well, as I am the anti-steryotype.
But I do wonder sometimes if it matters at all, chronolgically, we age all the time, but once we've formed our personality's and successfully negotiated puberty, we don't change much untill we die (or develop alzeimer's)
As it happens, I'm the following:
a classical music lover
A grunge/goth
one on persuit of the path of karezza
non religeous
walking wounded
a red wine drinker
a big fan of trivial persuit
partial to the occasional cigar
and guilty of two counts of clinical insanity (no joke!)
so decide for yourself how old I am, and talk to me as if you were right.

Spontanious combustion

Here's something to do if you're bored and have £2.00 spare:
go into a pharmacy and buy 1 bottle of glycerol (also called glycerin)it needn't be a big one, in fact i'd reccomend bying the cheapest one u can find.
ask over the counter for some 'potassium permangonate' (po-tass-ee-um perm-ang-an-8) if they ask what you want it for, say your going to sri lanka and you need it in case of snake bites (you shouldn't get any hassle) once acquired take both ingredients home and find safe place that wont burn (a patio is good) pour the potassium perm. into a little mountain and make an indent in the top (like a volcano)
pour some glycerol into the dent in the mountain, don't worry if it drips down the sides.
wait patiently, it shouldn't be long before it begins to fizz, before igniting in an attractive purple flame.
you can use this reaction as a short fuse for jug or petrol bombs.It also makes a rather entertaining party peice.

I strongly reccomend this non-prescription anti-depressant.
It sells better than prozac in Germany (if that's anything to be proud of) and the 'high potency' tablets are really effective
