Sex, iPod, Software, Incredibles

My blog doesn't get that much traffic - hardly surprising I guess. Anyhow I got to wondering how might be improved with a few choice keywords.

So here we go:
michael jackson, oscar nominations, ipod shuffle, hardcore sex, cheap software, free downloads, prince harry.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Taking the piss

What's the correct toilet etiquette when taking a piss?

Heading off to the
Hole in the Ground's toilet I find the floor is 1/4 inch deep in some liquid.

So do I paddle to the urinal and take a leak, or stand at the edge of the lake and piss on the floor?


Option one leaves you with stained shoes, if the liquid is indeed urine - of course if I had litmus paper about my person I could have checked the acidity of the liquid to aid my decision, or just squat down and done a taste test.

Option two was never really an option - I'm shy.

Mac mini

A friend of mine who has never owned or used a Mac to my knowledge had a new Mac mini delivered to my house as she was at work. It arrived before my order for one, so I was tempted to peek in the box - but resisted. Although I did feel the box up, so to speak - weight, size etc.

She came round to pick it up in the evening and set off for home at about 9:15pm. At around 10:10pm I got an email which read: "Well I'm up and running and its looks like its going to be an enjoyable experience".


Considering she had a 10 minute drive to get home, cats to feed - and herself probably - I think the speedy set up and sending of the first email speaks volumes for the hardware, OS X and it's ease of use.
