Tidying Up the Place

Topic: BillyWorld
you can just imagine me out on a Sunday, papping the toadstools, can't you?

Having been throwing Gmail invites all around usenet, I have 8 spare invites. If you want one, leave an email address (if you mung it, please make it obvious) in the comments.

Big Brother is a bit boring at the moment, isn't it? Is it only me who prefers it when they're fighting [sic]? So much for their TV Psychs - a child with a poo fetish and a spare pack of Crayolas could draw more psychological insights from the programme than this lot of overpaid media whores did.
What I'd really like is an in-depth analysis of Jason and Victor. I know a lot of people like Victor, the Butter Knife Avenger, and I'm inclined to forgive, and look for clues as to whether his behaviour is motivated by nastiness or not. I think not. Jason, on the other hand, I find repellent. I'd gneuinely like to know if he represents a type of human who's common, or even acceptable.
In the meantime, if you miss a programme, and have broadband, as well as all the progs you miss, there's some really really funny clips on Kazaa and on bit torrent. Ways of downloading torrents are here, here, and here. Ways of watching them are here.
The BookClubBlog suggests an alternative. At least Wimbledon has just started.
And isn't there some football on, somewhere? ;o)

I've never seen a toadstool look so pretty.

There's a gmail feeding frenzy going on at www.gmailswap.com... can't figure out who's more desparate: people looking for invites or people looking for stuff in exchange for invites. Apparently they're being sold on ebay too. I read that Gmail's going public July 4th.

More silliness: Got Gmail?

I'd throw them some invites if they weren't being so geeky about it...

I can tell you who finished third in Group B of the first round of Euro 2004, but have no idea what G-mail is. If an email really hits the spot does it make you come?

Heh! I have no idea of who's in Euro 2004, or when, or against whom - all I know is at some point every few days, all the idiots are off the streets and the restaurants are sparsely populated.
Here's what G Mail is. It's no great shakes, as I see it, but I don't like using webmail as my main address anyway. It's fab with the storage limits and spamblocking. It doesn't repair broken nipples yet.

Yes, there's somewhat of an air of old socks in a restricted environment to it, isn't there? Neat link.

Nipples? Broken? Bummer.........

Gmail is ok. I am waiting to be able to transfer mail from other accounts(they are apparently working on this). It will be nice to have a GIG of space to organize all of my accounts.

You did miss out on the Ebay lunacy though....people were paying $50+ for a free invitation. Sheesh. =)

I'm reliably informed by Dave that I should:
< Google for "POP Goes the Gmail". >

Although that sounds the upverse way around - like you said, Google should be taking the strain off the other accounts.

I have to join the praising club just this once to say that your photos are very very nice indeed:-)

I can't stand Jason. It'd spice things up a bit if Vanessa decided she'd had enough of his aggressive groping and complained to Big Bro about sexual harrassment. :D

Hurrah. Thanks, NC. My drawings are way better, and 1999 out of every 2000 of my photos are shite, so I'm flattered.
I forgot my camera last weekend, thankfully, otherwise I would have irritated everyone else quite out of existence taking the 1999, as per usual.

I think she's so starved of her usual attention from males that she'd crumple without his support.
Duch actually fancies Jason. I dread to think what this might mean if there are more of them out there.
