No.5 is alive
Ah, happy day. I fixed the problem I was having with my firewall.
No more spontaneous shutdowns and freezing. ZoneAlarm, you guys suck. If I ever see the word "TrueVector" again I'll be forced to commit acts of random and unnatural violence upon the hapless soul who has caused me to see it.
I'll freely admit I've been lazy recently. True, the whole Russian roulette thing with the firewall played a big part, but I reckon I started using that as an excuse.
Anyhoo. Here I sit, baking quietly in my own juices in our spare room, one tiny fan valiantly trying to move air thick enough to cut with a knife around, succeeding only in being a mechanical placebo. The weather's been grand eh? Sorry, I meant the "heatwave". Oh yes ladies & germs, the UK can't simply have a summer like other countries, it has to have a "heatwave". I wonder when the newsrags are going to try finding someone to blame for the weather?
Hell, they'll probably point fingers at us poor 4x4 drivers. Grr. Now there' something that gets my back up, old Mayor Ken the Cnut and his Pointless Crusade d'Jour. Haven't you heard?4x4's are the tOolS oF sAtAn... I wonder, has he actually driven on London's roads? I swear, frigging Mogadishu has better road surfaces than London. Close your eyes, and from the jolts and sudden lurches as you plummet into the craters that dot every 2nd road here you'd swear you were in any one of a dozen tinpot banana republics in some hazy, dusty corner of Africa. It's embarassing. Just the other day I have to help an italian tourist climb out of a pothole over in Regent street. I had to tear my shirt into strips and knot them together as a makeshift rope to get her out.
