    Blargh, M$ - excuse me while I go barf.

    One more day done. Also got my shiny new phone. Now all that's left is to get the LEDs changed to blue ones and this is gonna be one kickass phone.

    They could have kept it, if you ask me.

    'Twas only 1 year old at the time, and was unaware that heavy metal was in its prime. If only I could have been born 20 years earlier so I could have experienced it first hand at its best. :bad:

    Oh well...that's why we have CDs! :banana: :rolling:

    And following that, a day in the life of a Unix user:

    Starts up computer

    Uses it for two hours

    Saves data securely, print it out, upload it, computer runs rock-solid.

    User has not lost anything and is not shouting random profanities at computer.

    Mess with the best, die like the rest.

    85? Ahh the year of mullets, denim jackets with the arms ripped out worn over leather jackets, tracksuits worn outside of the gym (sadly still a trend), big earrings, shell suits, glam metal and excellent cartoons (gummy bears, he-man, etc).

    1985 was the year I started University. Feeling like ----> :geezer:

    It's 6 degrees centigrade here, raining, overcast and it looks more like twilight than noon. Venting it on SP somehow makes me feel better. :p

    Lets see, in 85 I would have been in Jr High. Zits, Cinderella, and Billy Joel, they were the mainstays of my life those days.

    Work was brutal last night, and I must be off to bed so I can do it over again tonight. :thumb:

    In '85 house and acid house were beginning to hit the underground and become popular there, raves started man what a time that was.

    Oh good afternoon SPers and welcome to Tuesday, the exits are being shown to you now by the cabin crew, we do hope you'll enjoy your flight.

    In 1985, George Michael and Michael Jackson were still semi-respectable and extremely popular.
