March 31, 2001: March 31, 2001"Excess consumption may have a"Excess consumption may have a laxative effect" I wish they would also put on the packet what their definition of "excess" is. Does one packet of mints in 10 min come under excess or just too fast?? And why doesn't licorice come with the same warning?? If it wasn't for an over informative Mum I wouldn't have known. Energy drinks like "Red Bull" and "V" now come with warnings of a 5 can limit per day, but sugar free mints don't?? Or is it they didn't expect some fool to eat a packet of their mints that fast, or 5 packets while watching TV one night and so never put the warning on there?? Either way I'm bored and looking into this way too much. I smell the Onion inI smell the Onion in here as we find out Microsoft attampts to patent Ones and Zeros the building blocks for all code.

I'll let you make up your mind on the game yourself Here's a page with someHere's a page with some interesting facts about computers and some wide eye'd dreams from 1994. Here's an interesting fact Robert Harks, "Hot Shots", Interactions, Nov+Dec 1999. p. 53. "Around the world, more than 2,700 photographs are taken every second.... Vacation pictures take up 80 percent." March 27, 2001: March 27, 2001Again BoingBoing.net comes through withAgain BoingBoing.net comes through with the goods.

March 25, 2001: March 25, 2001Blenders should come with aBlenders should come with a warning saying that they should only be operated by people with a brain.

Everything I want my photos to be ie: good Seems my entry for theSeems my entry for the Channel V homepage graphic comp was named "Fuck Me"??

Oh, well a T-Shirt is cool :( Ben from DVTS completed aBen from DVTS completed a Trolley desktop for me this week. And seeing as it's better then any of my other desktops, he will not be asked again to do anything for me :) There are now 16 desktops to choose from in a variety of monchromatic colours. I apologise in advance for the Devil Porn desktop. March 22, 2001: March 22, 2001March 21, 2001: March 21, 2001Wow, have your site reviewWow, have your site review within 5 working day for only $20.

From the mailing list email... You don't realise how unfitYou don't realise how unfit you are until you are put to the test. I tried a measly 1 chin-up today and failed.

I don't think I can ever get tired of this film clip. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was,Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was, as everyone else has allready said, very enjoyable. I saw it at the Roxy cinema in Parramatta. I just wish it was in the huge, and very atmosheric, cinema one rather than the wooden floored cinema two. Oh well still good. Note: The Roxy has to be the coolest building in Parramatta. Pink on the outside, QVB like on the inside. Cinema one has to be seen to be believed.
