Reply-to-all killed mail servers in the American department of foreign fairs
If you use mail at work, and by that i mean in Outlook, then you
proberly know that a very cool feature is that you can click “reply to
all”, and vupti - it will send your reply back to everyone who was in
the orginal mail.. however.. imagine that happening if there is like
1-2-3000 people in the orginal mail.. now.. and now imagine that many
of those people do the same.. now.. that can easily become A HELL LOT
OF EMAIL.. infact so many, that the servers “over there” went down..
the funny thing to this story is that it was a EMPTY mail that started
it all.. it all ended happy out with the “big boss” of IT, wrote (yet
another mail) out to everyone saying NOT to use the reply-all button..
the ironic in that is that hes title on the mail was “send this to as
many as posebil”.. ooooooonly in usa… *tsk* *tsk*

Woman from Romania get Spray-can removed .. from her ass…. :-S
One can only wonder what the doctors at Romanian hospital was thinking
when a 37 year old woman came in from the street conmplaning about a
“pressing” problem, since this is a nice plog , i will not get into
what kind of pictures the doctors got in their head when they found out
that she had a can of Hair-spray in her ass.. to make it even worse..
the x-ray showed that it was not just a Little can.. it was HUGE.. Mirela Gradinaru had notthing else to other than “i tripped?!?!?!?” .. one can only imagine that “tripping” like that must heart as hell…

Hi,

My first post this year will be about my latest project - "Le’Windows 7 kitchen computer"

A while back, a friend of ours sold me a cheap computer, the reason was that the screen was.. well.. messed up.. i reggen that she got pissed and in a quick reaction she went kick-boxing on the screen.. anyway.. i paid less than 100$ for it (500 swedish KR), the poor thing (the computer) felt realy bad, so i gave it some new memory and a new harddisk (imagine if you could do that to real people.. i guess there is some old people on the elder-homes that would be overly thrilled..

Anyway, i now had a computer that could boot.. with a messed up screen, but working perfectly with a external monitor.. so my next thought was.. what todo with this.. freak of nature…

Ok, its no secret that me and my wife like computers (well.. i like them, she lives quitly with them.. only commenting them once in a while like.. turn of that computer.. )

Anyway, i came with the conclusion.. HEY HEY.. the only room (well.. except the toilet) that dosent have a computer.. is the kitchen.. and we could realy need one there.. (i convinced my wife by speaking about receipies, music and shopping lists.. let that be a leasson to use once you want to try the same .. experiment)

Anyway, i removed the dead monitor on the laptop, along with the "foot" on a 17" TFT monitor, i chose to go with Windows 7 Beta #1 (For those who havent been paying attention, Windows 7 is the next *drewling* version of Windows after Vista)

Here is a picture of the result.

and another picture where my wife is demonstrating the two apart…

(the picture of the beauty is from news years eve)

The result is now that we have a realy nice computer in the kitchen that can be used when we (malin) cook, and i can play with as i pretend to help her

Have a nice 2009.
