What on earth does Hong Kong have to do with tin foil? Absolutely nothing at all.
 
A pet hate of mine is when people use tin foil the wrong way round! Come on people, it's the not the most complicated invention known to man! It comes with a dull side and a shiny side. Shiny side reflects radiation (heat), dull side lets it pass through. If you want to keep something warm or cook it faster then shiny side in. If you want to keep something cool shiny side out. It's that simple. Stop wrapping everything shiny side out. It's not there to look pretty!
 
Oh yeah and we're off to Hong Kong on Sunday.....

We're at Yanys parents house today and her dad has just made us a nice lamb curry. I thought it was a great idea because Yany doesn't like lamb! Except that every time we have it she changes her mind and eats it all. So I didn't get to steal any of hers Cry

Well Zeus is pretty cool. I'm on the ZXTM training course today and it can do some pretty cool things! The ZXTM is a web accelerator using Linux and Zeus technology to do some pretty impressive stuff. One of it's great features is trafficscript, which is a very powerful scripting language allowing you to do anything from redirecting web pages to rewriting them!

I think I must have had about 2 hours sleep last night and I had to get up at 03:00 for a NetBanx code release. The release all went as planned and I was back home by lunch time! That will almost certainly be my last ever NetBanx release. Three more days and then I'll be off to the Greener pastures of Zeus technologies.

It seems ubuntu have let a broken xserver-xorg-core package go through to their repositories. I upgraded this morning and after restarting my machine X wouldn't start because It couldn't find my nvidia graphics card?!?! It's a good job I used to run Debian propper :) I downgraded to an older version which was in the release repositories.
 
xorg-xserver-core 1:1.0.2.0ubuntu10.3 is broken!

Firefox 2 could very well be my saviour. Ever since I started running this site in a CMS I realised how much I needed a spell checker built into my browser. Next thing I know firefox are doing it! Could this be an end to bad spelling on bad penguin?!?!
