Broadband? Check...
Wireless? Check...
Hassle...? Check.
I'm like the cheerleader in the old spooky house in a stalk-and-slash movie, imagining the slasher in every shadow, impending death in every creaky floorboard. This broadband set up has been such a pain I'm just waiting for it to go "tits up". I should be having fun right now - and I haven't written anything this week...
This afternoon was mostly spent virus-checking, then watching Gamera III - Revenge Of Iris. I will try to get back up to speed with project work by the weekend.
Mini-rant... Will people please stop looking for reasons to be so bloody offended all the time? Now we've got TV presenters being fired because someone ratted on them for what they said in private. Are they all just pissed off that Jonathan Ross didn't get fired for "Sachsgate"? Are the "little fish" at the newspapers that desperate to make their names? What's next? We apologise to the Nazis for fighting them in World War II? We apologise to the damn terrorists for building the World Trade Centre in the path of their "martyrs"?
(No, I'm not linking to anything this time. Look it up for yourselves, dammit...)
...and NO, J.K. Rowling should not have apologised to the French for giving her villain a French name. What a heap of sh!t that was...
...and so what if Christian Bale went a bit bat-shit (oops, no pun intended) on the Terminator: Salvation set LAST YEAR? Guess someone asked him what it was like working with Heath Ledger again...
