    Sure, once they're posted online. Today is the first viewing where we go into the studio to look at them there. Later, they will post them online.

    [​IMG] Just learned today that a former colleague of mine asked to be institutionalised after he left the company we both used to work at. He was fired about a year ago, and it was ugly (in my :roll: former :spin: company that's guaranteed).

    I wonder wether this guy was fired because of (a) being so, or (b) if he indeed did get so because of they way the company treated him (in two words: like crap) and the way he was fired. I tend toward 35% (a) and 65% (b).

    Anyway, good riddance :outta: :wave:
    .... I'm happy I got a new job :)

    Aww man, I just wrote a really long post and then it didn't work because I accidentally had a parenthesis or something somewhere. Oh well. I'll babble about that stuff some other time then.

    Hitting the back button in such cases almost always works. At least in Firefox...

    More the reason to ditch Internet Explore and embrace Firefox.

    Opera. Enough said.

    Well, the exam went good. I don't feel for partying like it's 999, but I have a reasonably good feeling. Let's just hope I'm not proven wrong...

    My first post of the day is now long over due.

    Had a test today. Think I passed.


    I have a problem with my graphics card. It cant create skies (WTF :eek: ) . Every time there is sky shown in a late model graphics engine the computer either crashes or the sky is faulty. What the hell is going on. :hmm:

    Haha, looks like Firefox has a built-in "Don't talk s*** about Firefox" sensor because a few second after my last post, Firefox started to go funky on me - it basically started to crash on me for no reason) :shake: :shake: :shake:

    Good thing I had the magnificent Opera to dethrone the lowly Firefox ... (not taking any chances, don't want to risk Opera going funky on me...) :shake: :shake: :shake:

    Yeah that's what I did, but it didn't work.

    --

    Got a blood test today. Geh, the doctor tried to distract me by asking questions about my immunisations. I paused for a long time when I felt the needle go in and he was like "please continue talking". Took me a while to remember what I had been saying.

    ANZAC day next Wednesday. Yay! A whole day for cramming! ^^''

    Disciple, Opera's ultimate goodness will prevail over Firefox anytime. No need to lie.

    @Shell; yah, that's the same, Microsoft like to interchange MSN with INTERNET or WINDOWS, like it owns the freakin' world.

    I use Internet Explorer and usually hitting the back button works. Note I said usually.

    I have used Firefox and Explorer as well as a few lesser known ones and can safely say that for the amount of functions that I use on a web browser, they are all the same. I have never had a problem with any of them.

    On a different note, Coronas are very nice :beer:
