Wow, I forgot how fun that was - Let's kill some more Russians .

Recently I was cleaning my desk when I happen to see an old game CD - "Command & Conquer - RED ALERT 2" - I haven't played the game for ages and ages, so I decided to install on my PC and try it, one more time, for old times' sake.

And boy, have I forgotten just how good and exciting this game was - Building a base, training troops, attacking enemies.. I LOVE IT..

And so, for the past week, I have been killing Russians, Americans, French, British, Germans, Afghans, and Iraqis, and I have come to the conclusion that, "All Wars" should be fought on the Command & Conquer Maps. Sorry I can't write much more about this fantastic game, but you can buy a copy for next to nothing, try and enjoy...

Time to kick some Ruskie ass...

So why pay £778,000,000.00?

I was surfing the internet, trying to see whether there are other "like-minded" souls, who thought that Heinz Beans are tasting worst and worst by the day, when I found this..

I used to shop at my NETTO Supermarket in Bolton - the prices were fairly reasonable, no BS, no fanfare, no hassle, just quality products at fair prices... And then, we got ASDA*Walmart, deciding to buy the Netto stores in the UK and close the UK's chain for good.

So why has ASDA*Walmart decided to spend  £778,000,000.00 ($1,235,853,000.00 - over a billion US dollars - Almost as much as they've spent on the US presidential elections); to close all of the NETTO stores in the UK and change those to Mini ASDAs, and how could any business justify spending that much money, if there wasn't a return... And a return there was, a huge increase in prices, with shoppers being screwed from every angle, whilst being brainwashed into believing that they are saving more and more, and that this move is for their own benefit.

An example of some of the changes:

	ASDA	NETTO
Basic Washing Powder.	£2.80 (3.33kg)	£1.64 (4kg)
Basic Sunflower Spread	£1.00 (500g)	£0.45 (500g)
Skimmed Milk	£0.88 (1ltr)	£0.49 (1ltr)

So remind me again, why did ASDA*Walmart pay £778,000,000.00?

Heinz Meanz Beanz - Oh no they don't...

Even Heinz Beans, the pillar of the 57 varieties has changed it's taste, and not of the better I might add.

The taste is now more tangy / sour / bitter.

Why don't you give people a choice, and if one wants a reduced, Salt, Sugar, Taste, "NOW WITH MORE TANG" Variety, then they can purchase that... 

Instead of concentrating on the flavour, we just have a selection of "faddy" new receptacles, the Fridge Pack, The 4 Snap Pots, etc...  Don't get me wrong, the people will try those, until they discover that "the shit inside is really shit", and then what?   

Don't change something so familiar, something that we have all grown up with - to something so awful, that nobody can stomach, not even my dog.

Within my household, the following people have noticed the taste change, and now they refuse to eat Heinz Beans..

Myself
My wife
My Daughter
My Son
My Granddaughter
My (invisible) Dog

I need help with developing a website and some software to control that (PC or SmartPhone based app) - I will not pay you anything; but you will own an equal share of the company; regardless of how many people join in....

So if we have 100 people, then we will all get a 1% share each; if we only have:
2 - 50% share; each
3 - 33.33% share; each
4 - 25% share; each
5 - 20% share; each
etc. etc...

We are not likely to make any money for at least 1 year; so no returns are expected.
If interested, and you know about PHP or ASP then just drop me a line; and I will send you more information..

Webroot - Is there such thing as....

too much security?....   

The answer is "YES" - I would rather be without any anti-virus than be scared witless by everything, all the time, and being told that everything else is a virus, regardless. Because, let's face it, they can be infected at some point in the future, so we might as well just delete them now and get it over with.

 
Every other anti-virus in the world seems to think that those files are OK, but not Webroot security - I write Software for a living and I like compressing my software with UPX - Everything I compile is OK until compressing with UPX, and all of a sudden, it becomes a virus, and it gets quarantined or deleted - So one second the file is OK, the next it's a virus.

Brown CD...

I really don't know if my new Dynamode - 802.11N - 150mbs - Wireless Adapter - is fake, or is the real deal - All I know is that you can "Brown CD"...

PS. The Adapter is the worst ever known to man, machine, monkey or beast - very slow, with a very crappy range...

The X-Factor - Murdering Music Since 2004...

Group would be "Artists" according to their looks, and not their, questionable, voice & talent.

You look like Shania Twain, so you must be country...

You look like Plan-B (from outer space), so you must RAP...

What a load of Bullshit...
