Being open about what money you're making from your art/music/[insert chosen medium here] seems to be an uncomfortable subject in many people's eyes. I don't see why - I prefer the openness and transparency. Because some people think that artists will get compromised by money. eg. the artist might ...

True Story. My first day with a Mac (admittedly a few years ago) <ring ring><ring<ring> guy: Hello, Apple techncal support, how can I help? me: I can't eject the frickin CD from the drive guy: oh, just drag the CD to the Trash bin me: well, I don't want to trash it, I want to eject it. guy: well, th...

The whole "Macs vs. Windows PC" thing is for other people who insist on spending money on stuff that should be free.

Everytime somebody installs Linux.... the communists have won.

I thought Macs only existed to give people something to do in Starbucks... you mean people actually use them to do stuff too?

Nah, we have those too

(but at least our houses are bigger... )

Yup, color scheme put me right off.

But our houses are still bigger than yours.

Many moons ago, I moved the USA and donated my vinyl record collection to my brother. Now he's thinking about moving, and wants to dump the collection - literally. So, I'm curious how much vinyl is worth these days? Do people still collect, or is it very, very niche? Is it worth the effort of siftin...

Yeah, I use my Amex (NOT Black card!) for just about everything. There's a few places around here that don't take it - normally cheap restaurants.

I think $495 would definitely put me in the exclusive class 'of money than sense' :lol: if(!u.see('me')||u.loc!=me.loc){me.exist=false;you.makeBelieve=1;}if(eye.see==0){heart.break=0};if(you.leave){me.disappear()} c:\lyrics.cpp(1): error: syntax error. if(!u.see("me")||u.loc!=me.loc){me.ex...

Our Andy's card?

what did the other jurors say when you were vindicated?

Not much... As I walked out one women came up to me and said "you were right". But the look on their faces - especially the ones who stuck to "guilty" - was fairly priceless.... I think their world view just changed.

I just spent the last few days as a Jurer on a trial. A policeman was the only witness to the crime. There was no other real evidence. The policeman's testimony was the key. I thought the policeman lied under oath. His body language... his delivery... just wrong. We, the jury, debated for a day. Nob...

I've found lots of old friends, a couple of old flames, but I don't think I've met any in the flesh yet.... well, I do live in California now, which is a long way from Leeds 6... Most interesting... a very good friend from when I was in primary school. He's now a fairly famous actor in the UK. Been ...

I'm not fan of journalism, to be sure. I have to work with them occassionally in my job, and its never pleasant.... they never seem to let the truth get in the way of a good story. In the firsts article, the phrase "rat on" sets a biased tone for the whole article, as does the picture of t...

I'm not sure if you're referring to the content of the articles, or the extremely poor quality of the journalism?

In order to understand one's enemy, one must read their newspaper....




maybe.

Previous experience in the role?

Only when buying Morrison's own brand cola....

AH, separating the 1.5L Coke bottles from the urine contained there-in... job of champions

"THE" Crimincal Justice Act, normally refers to the 1994 UK one, or specifically "The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994" to give it its correct name (or at least it did when I was in the UK). It received a lot of criticism at the time it was going through the legal proce...

What century are you living in, dude?

The one after the Criminal Justice Act was enacted!

Some of you guys are so predictable. I swear, it's like poking a monkey with stick a sometimes

GUILTY AS CHARGED!! :):):):)

Hehe, well there's already Skeletal Family and Ghost Dance ones! There's even a MyHeartland one!

If AM needs a proper site, that-there QB chappy is apparently a dab hand with HTML and a copy of vi... or so I hear!

Ugh, really? I think MySpace is the worst for user interface... but each to their own. Facebook has double the number of active users over MySpace now... if you follow the common rule that the value of a social network is the square of its users, that makes FB 4 times more useful over MySpace :) Sti...
