A poll
Out of interest:

Someone on "Common" said guys wearing any form of jewellry except a wedding band is hideous and dirty.

I'm rather partial to blokes wearing one (small and tasteful) neck decoration, be it a thin chain (not long) or a more hippy leather band thing. In fact, it makes blokes look teh mighty sexual and rape-worthy to me.

Am I alone? Mistaken? Or just plain insane?

CALLING ALL TECHIES
Afternoon all,

Knowing the amount of techies that lurk in these waters, I thought this might be the best place to ask for help (I'm not stupid enough to venture onto talk). Anyways, I have some CDs of some voice recordings that were given to my firm by our client's previous solicitors. They're all .hvc, which as far as I can tell is Hot-Eye Video codec. I need to listen to these asap, but I'm struggling to get a demo downloaded for the codec, all the sites I've tried have ended with errors and no download. Can anyone help please?

Thanks

EDIT: VLC does not want! What I think I'm looking for is a reputable site that'll allow me to download the Hot-Eye Protector program, if anyone knows of it?

Since it's my birthday today
Is it feasible for Celtic to lose to Man United tonight? Could the Universe do that to me?

Or does football work by taking the total of one teams supports birthday on any given match day and comparing it to the opposition supporters equivalent?

Incidentally it's Nemanja Vidics birthday today and I assume he'll be supporting Man United.

Nothing to add on 'common'
So...am I the first to discover the joys of listening to songs alphabetically on my iPod? It gives you pretty much as random a selection as 'shuffle' with the added bonus of hearing multiple versions of the same song by different artists in succession.

A young chap is down on his luck...

..and walking down a country lane one afternoon lamenting his lack of a job/girlfriend/personality or equally sized testicles.

Desperate for some work and starving he decides to walk up to a local farm and see if there is any casual labour or cow inseminating that needed doing.

Our hero meets with the farmer and has a discussion about what he could be skilled in doing down on the farm.

“Can ye milk a cow” garbled the farmer.

“No, I’m afraid not” replied the young man.

“Well have ye ever driven a tractor” questioned the farmer.

“No, no I haven’t” replied the increasingly desperate young man.

“Wha about a chicken, can you kill and pluck a chicken?”

“Oh god no!” the young man desperately answered.

“Well I could do with some help in the stables, have you ever shoed a horse”

“No” the boy answered excitedly, “but I once told a donkey to fuck off”.

Birthday blues
So..it's me birthday today. The real one, not the B3ta one. And it's rubbish! I've got a bad neck, I can't turn my head, my husband has flu so they'll be none of teh sexytime and, to top it all off, we've got to go to a silly neighbour's meeting tonight instead of doing anything fun. Bah. Anyone got a joke or anything to cheer me up?!
Birthday = suckiness.
