This is one of those “geek only” jokes because if you get it will simultaneously snigger out loud and and be very ashamed of yourself….

… or at least you should be.

Thanks (again) Giz.

This is a special post for Peeg, in homage to his ingenuity last night with the glow sticks.

…plus of course I wet myself a little when I saw it. I want one!

I know there’s been a lot of “stuff” put up here in the last few days but I’m slowly going through my mail box and clearing out all the old emails that have flown back and forward between me and some of the other guys. This one was from Ollie Gee… props bud!

There’s not really all that much I can write about either of these; they pretty much come with their own explanation. The first is the American’s approach to a workout for your arms… my personal trainer side would like to call it “functional training”.

The second takes just as little imagination and probably comes under the same heading (no pun intended)

I always seem to come across anti Microsoft snippets (I guess there’s more of them around in the ether than there is of any other company). I’d expect the balance to change a little over coming years as Apple tightens its grip on the user experience but that’s a story for another day.

Anyhow, a little behind the curve on this one, and only worth a click if you’re a bit nerdcore.

There are some software developments that wont ever make a dent on the world, and there’s some that could change the way we do things…. FOREVER.  The chaps at TLA have set about changing the world with paradigm shifting technologies and their latest release is no exception.

The new PCalc software for the iPhone has a new “patent-worthy profanity filter” that filters out profanity created by typing in numbers such as “5318008″ into your calculator and turning it upside down.

Have you, or somebody close to you, ever turned your calculator upside down and accidentally seen a mildly suggestive word? Have you ever been in a maths class, and had to put up with groups of giggling boys performing elaborate calculations that are not part of the lesson?

Yes, it’s one of the main problems affecting the calculator industry today, the so-called “calculator words”. These otherwise harmless devices can be made to display smut at the press of a few buttons

Thank God for PCalc

Just a little bit of Friday fun. This one’s an oldie but a goodie.


Manufacturer Recalls Hollow Point Bullets That Fail To Explode Inside Targets

Favourite Line “…some of these defective bullets can leave an exit hole as small as a plum”

I really love Outlook, I use it for pretty much everything I do, but I couldn’t help agreeing with almost all of the 67 Reasons that Outlook Sucks.

Shame really because that’s such a simple nag list for Microsoft to fix!
