i have just been crying with laughter...it was the irish plane crash that set me off. somethimes i can be like that. something quite obtuse and I desend into a spiral of un controlable giggles. it drives my wife mad.

Would it be wrong for me to ask if I could have her sprawled across my desktop?

"@500ft in a griffin spit the next 3 miles below the nose is blind"

ah...the busy I.T department....... nice find gk

Happy birthday fritz

from what i remember it was not too bad. i installed it at work and our desktop machines were never that pokey or spec'd up on the graphics. it was quite fun. all your icons are converted to rotation cubes. you can then drag them around and put them in what ever room you like. i used to have all my "office functions word, excel, powerpoint etc in one room, web stuff in another etc.

I used this for a while, quite cool, can make it confusing for other people to find your icons... http://www.rooms3d.com.sg/

If any of the new guys have not get it yet let me know and I can pick one up for you. I dont mind sending it anywhere (postage charged at cost of course!)

I have a good friend who is a senior aircraft engineer at Heathrow and he has updated me on a couple of things..... You may remember the recent Airbus crash... http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/fligh ... hotos.html Well, he told me last night that the plane was undergoing tests. Sitting in the seat was an engineer who been running some tests on the engines. As he was getting out of the seat to hand over to a flight crew (with the engines still idling) he slipped and fell on to the throttles. It was about 10 seconds or so before he could be physically yanked out of the way and as no one was in the seat, they could not reach the brakes, the rest as they say is history..... On the BA crash at Heathrow... Again the whisper in the hangers is that it was caused by an unusual severe cold weather front at altitude. Other airlines had reported an effect on fuel iceing and requested permission to decend in order to warm their fuel up. The fuel that they use, when very cold develops something known as waxing. the parfin element in the fuel becomes lumpy and can block filters. BA have a policy of not altering altitude apparently. So he thinks that is why the plane became starved of fuel (as it has waxed and blocked some inlet filters) then by the time they were examined, it had all melted and evaporated, thus leaving no trace and nothing to find. One of the engines was turning as the blades have been destroyred in such a way to indicate as much. This seems to bear out the fact there has been no recall / inspection ordered on RollsRoyce engines or a make check on the plane type. If I hear any more I'll post back.

.I shall be sending round Sister Stricticus for some "realignment" councelling Greyknight

nice bit of "boom and zoom" there. the turn radius of that horse was well modeled.

Happy Birthday Akula

looks like we've got a Barney Moment

I am not sure about tir 2 as i have tir 3(or is it 4?), anyway, you should have an installation disc with the software. once installed the camera sits on top of your screen facing you. you should also have a reflective clip / strip which you wear on your head / headset. the camera bounces an infra red light of the reflector and translates this to head movement. it works likes your mouse, a little movement goes a long way.

shocking.......

no, we have not seen him sine he changed jobs to the network co.

Welcome back friend. strays are always welcome back into the pack. sorry to hear things have not gone too well for you recently. @greyknight - nice one, its the early bird that catches the worm, so to speak, not that i am calling knight a worm, nor you a bird,...errr... i'll just shut up
