I came across an old ad for a PC I bought back in ‘97.
What a high-powered beast it was… for £1000 you get a 166Mhz processor, 2GB hard disk and a whopping 32MB of RAM. Whoosh !
My phone has more storage than that !
This came in on email the other day… Fantastic !

A Cat’s Diary
Day 183 of my captivity.
My captors continued to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal.
The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from clawing the furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another house plant.
Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded. Maybe I should try this at the top of the stairs.
In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair. I must try this on their bed.
Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little kitty cat I was. This is not working according to plan.
There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary confinement throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the food. More important, I overheard that my confinement was due to my powers of inducing something called “allergies.” Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.
I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit.
The bird, on the other hand, has got to be an informant. He speaks with them regularly, and I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured. But I can wait… It’s only a matter of time.
Anyone for Tennis ?
Ha Ha ! BBC News 24 interview the wrong guy live on TV ! How funny is that ? What a screw up !
Apparently, some guy who showed up for a job interview was mistaken for the editor of Newswireless.net in reception.
The poor candidate was ushered into a TV studio and cross-questioned on the Apple vs Apple trial live on air. Hilarious ! Watch it here !
Bless ‘em !
