# Hi Everybody!
you ever get that feeling when you've been working hard on creating a site, you are going to take it to show thclient in six hours, and then you realise your colleagues in the US are complete fuckwits who deleted while you were in the pub celebrating last night night?

Im going McDonalds, to cry over a soss Mcmuff

# Do you
have backups?
Or are the disks marked "Backup" just cunning ruses to disguise pr0n?

# Backups are over in the US
and they dont get in the office till about two hours before client meeting.

Apparently, its takes some of them up to two hours to do to differentiate between their arse and elbow, so Im not confident that they'll rectify the situation when they do arrive.

# Got to love the Americans,
not sure if it's true but I once heard we lost more troops to friendly fire from them then actually got killed by the Iraqis in the Gulf War.

And now you're the victim of it too.

# They are very good
at shooting UN vehicles and Chinese embassies aren't they?
But despite all their problems, I do so want to emmigrate there.
Did I manage to avoid starting a flame war?

# not really
its quite easy to get a ban entering the US if you know what you are doing : )

might involve plants though

# Not Quite so glamorous
just used to grow and distribute some plants. Got caught though, and the US places a flat 7 year visa refusal for anyone with a dope conviction.

You'd move there under the current paranoid government?

# No.
I'm biding my time. They freak me out at the moment.
I'm wating until Senator Palmer is inaugurated.

# It seems to be becoming an unfortunate
habit for the American military. Even when they're using more 'accurate' methods some fool ends up pointing them at their allies... or a weding party, or a foreign embassy, or a convoy of refugees.

# Chill
in central london, there is always a McD's and a starbucks within 10 meter of you.

Eating it now, but starting to feel like it was the wrong choice, as I realise Im supporting the US economy when I should be making my own embargoes.

# Friend of mine worked at Wimpey
until she had to go out on the street dressed as Mr Wimpey, that burger thing.
That was a day and a half of employment she'll never see cash for.

# that put my problems into perspective.
just made me think of a game I had on my C64 though. It was like hunchback, but you were Mr Wimpey, and had to jump around getting the ingredients for a burger.

God, I was easy to please as a kid.
