How is everybody doing following the 'Great Username Heist of Halloween 08?'

Incidentally, I have decided to take advantage of this otherwise shitty situation and will eventually change my username to something slightly less shit.

Suggestions would be welcomed...

I was wondering about that too. Was it my diarrhoea joke that did it? At least everyone's coming back, so I can safely say that my yoghurt looked like strawberry flavoured spunk.

And got to meet me! WOO

Also I have no idea what was in the half pint of Awesome but it came around like so

*waggly lines*

Fetid Mimsy was very very drunk. He had already ordered a soda water shandy - which contrary to popular belief did not contain larger but was half lemonade half soda water. This was the original drink of awesome and was proffered round the group and met with wary sniffs and tentative sips.

He did try and convince me that this was liquid awesome and I should drink more. I declined. More drinks were consumed and Fetid decided he was going to order half a pint of awesome. I - wrongly - assumed this was going to be more soda water shandy but turned out to be a mystical drink of possibly JD, definitely coke and something else.

So we never knew what was in it, which apparently is why it is so awesome and Fetid has stated he will be asking for half pints of awesome in all future drinking establishments.

*waggly lines*

Pictures of the awesome are on flikr :p

In fact, you can call me what you want...except Pooflake - due to general name thievery, but I just think that F1 is too...well...how can I put this?...TOTALLY FIXED!

Hmm, A few years back championships used to be decided quite early and viewing figures dropped like a stone. In a billion dollar industry this is not on, so the whole thing is twunted about with and staged so it always ends on the last race...with perfectly timed controversial moments to keep us interested along the way.

Lorks, do you remember a few years back when Frentzen and a couple of others could have won on the last race and on the qualifying round three people scored the exact same time to a 1000th of a second?

Hmm...yeah...RIGHT!

There is too much money involved in what is essentially a 'localised' sport for controls not to be put in place.

I haven't seen anything in recent years to put me off my suspicion that the whole thing is as choreographed as your average wrestling match.

That's not too far off what actually happened. :)

I'd just done a short test run and was outside the car, with the laptop on the roof of the car connected to some monitoring equipment on the wheels. I needed to do this to download the sensor data.

I unplugged the sensor leads, then I was distracted by a call on my radio that meant I had to return to base, so I hopped back in the car and started driving off again, only to head a sliding/scraping noise and to see my laptop slide down the rear screen and smash into millions of pieces on the road behind.

I think I'll reserve judgement on the whole 'F1 is fixed' thing, until I found out just why Glock lost fifteen seconds in that last lap. Although it was raining and he was on slicks, that could explain it, but I can't see why he'd back off that much. It's just too obvious.

Nothing sinister at all about Glock's slowing. He'd lost heat in the tyres and had next to no grip.

Glock was on dries - did a 1:44:731 on the last lap - Trulli, also on dries a 1:44:800.

Hamilton did a 1:26:126 - bettered by Webber with a 1:25:042, Heidfeld on 1:25:477 and Vettel on 1:25:984.

With that in mind, both Hamilton and Glock posted laptimes on the final lap that were consistent with other drivers on the same tyres.

@Colonel re: Penis Lollies
That made me remember last years Dickensian Festival in Ulverston, Cumbria.

There was a young ish couple with a four or five year old kid dressed as a pirate.

But instead of a plastic sword, they'd decorated a two foot long, black, rotating dildo.

The kid was running around waving it in peoples faces while they kept dragging him back to where the local newspaper photographer was.

I am assuming they were hoping for a front page.

I don't know if I'm warped, but I thought they were geniuses. Although I fear the kid may have weird memories later in life.
