6 pints of Stella and all will be right with the world. And you can look forward to round 2 with the dopey fuckwitts tomorrow. Who's the ISP anyway?

Rob has it right...
Stella is in order!!!!!

There's a 6er cooling nicely as we speak. And unlike some forum members I could mention, it has no intention of being there by tomorrow morning.

I felt a little outdoorsy today.... So I put some ice in my cooler to give that Coors a good chill!!!! I love a Good, Cold, Coors beer, myself!!!!
I don't think 6 is going to do it today, either!!!! I'm on my forth one already....

Damn RC, you're 5 hours behind me and already you're beating me hands down! Have to try and remedy that, I'm hitting the fridge and right now.....

I had an occasion to start at lunch today... Wasn't a 6 beer lunch though, only 3.... Naturally I had to crack a cold one when I got home.....

A dumb questions-were your guarentied 4 megs or does the fine print say "up to 4megs".
Yahoo/sbc dsl was sued for promising 1.5 meg and delivering only half of that. Now they say up to.
Hope it is resolved for you.
Damn, Stella is great but Duvel is my choice
I'm half-soused at this outback Aussie Pub as we speak - 10:30 am in the morning and this thread could not be more pertinent to my present situation. The Publican typically serves ice-cold Aussie beers: XXXX, VB, Tooheys etc; your typical Aussie beers they are. Then, just for us, he breaks open the Stellas and Becks last night and we're continuing this morning as its a public holiday where we are and the races are on.
Tomsmart: I empathise with you my friend but spare a thought for the Ole' Bomber down here in Aus as I'm in an old pub with dial-up only...
.
Man, I'm not normally a bloke who will have a pint at 10:30am in the morning but the lassies we met last night are not your typical Aussie ladies - country girls do it differently! None of this Vodka and Coke Rubbish; beer, beer and more beer.
Have any of you buggers been out-drunk by a lady? Man, I was for the first time last. I dont mind admitting it as she's here with me now thinking how crazy
it is that I am a member of such a BRILLIANT AND FANTASTIC SITE such as Toms...
Jeez, I am bombed...

Welcome to my Shed of Pleasure
Lads, apologies for crashing the thread... This trip around Australia has been just what the doctor ordered and I'm not normally out boozing on a weekday [but I think its ok to go a little crazy when you're on holidays].
Anything been happening? Who's enjoying life out there?
<b><font color=green> "I dont get heart attacks MothFu#@er, I give em'" Jim Brown. </b> </font color=green>
Neddy, they're not your typical lingerie models, so shhhh.... I did not say that.
But I tell you this, they're as hard as coffin nails from working in the bush, they have personalities to match and they dont snub their noses in the air when a bloke offers to buy her a drink and have a chat.
Its refreshing to meet women who look after themselves physically without gaining an ego to match that of Cindy Crawford or whoever men fantasise about these days [Angeline Jollie, I suppose].
The main thing is, we're all having a good time without the false pretences that comes with clubbing.
<b><font color=green> "I dont get heart attacks MothFu#@er, I give em'" Jim Brown. </b> </font color=green>
Ned, I just saw your pics on the site. Its good to be able to put a face to it all.
I need to get a pic or two in, I think. It feels more like a community when you have a face to put to a name.

Have a great one Man!!!! Drinking at 10:30 in the morning is just fine with me.... The earlier the better really!!!
Started years ago, really... Was up in the UP camping & raising a litttle hell with a friend of mine... We had broke camp, hung over from the beer & steak on the fire from the night before... He was driveing & it was daylight... He stopped the car & said, I've got to brush my teeth... I thought WTF, this guy I've never seen him brush his teeth in the morning..... He goes back & pops the trunk & grabs a cold Coors out of the cooler & commences chugging it down.... ... ...... ....... I said Why hell, I've got to brush my teeth also, & did.....
I've always liked to brush me teeth, early in the morning from then on!!!!!
Enjoy....

That's made my day, RC, LOL. The old Brush your Teeth trick, hey! Give that mate of yours a Gold Medal for practical, innovative, yet logical thinking. I've never heard of that before... fine tale indeed and one I'll be certain to pass on to the lads when I log off here.
I'm ordering my new pc over the next couple of days as my trip, unfortunately, is coming to a close and its time to head home. I'm in the process of looking at Corsair's Web site trying to decide if their Corsair TwinX 1 GIG X 2 [2gig] XMS 3200 400 MHZ Matched pair will be cool for my new AMD CPU etc.
I know its in simple English but the number mean little to me, particularly given that there's two pints under the belt on top of the 10 or so from last night...

Good advice, But I have all that done already. The setup is SmoothWall Corporate Server Version 3.0 using an ADSL PCI card,this is the gatweway for the four machines in the house. Setup used for the quality of protection offered and also the ease of management of the QoS(a nightmare under express). The problem with the speed is due to the fact it is a brand new line and they have not completed the setup yet. My rant was mainly due to beer and the Fum Ducker asking me to turn of my A.V an firewall. Not likley, just spent a few hours building the thing and getting it set just right whilst waiting for the B.T engineer to come and put the line upto the house. The muppet just pissed me off, but thanks for the advice.

I have the same service at other properties and it has always been fine, just a little hicup this time.

No Stella for me, I'm on a low carb diet at the mo. So I've been on pint of white wine. If you are going to substitute there is no point [-peep-] about. Bulldog is the ISP, never had a problem with them before, just this one muppet pissed me off. And now for the confession, the first time I spoke to him he suggested removing the micro filter from the wall, rebooting then reconnecting. Not thinking I followed his advice(although I couldn't see how this would help), the result was I cut myself of the phone with him. End of problem as far as he is concerned, sneaky bastard. Was really mad for falling for that. Took quite a while to get hold of him again but I did and after the "turn off forewalland A.V"thing I lost it and started with the abuse of him, his parents, his slut sister, wierd creepy pedeado uncles and web footed offspring he was likley to have. Fukker cut me off, can't understand some people can you?

I'm right there with you, Tom. I've downed 10 pints today and I'm writing this on some burnt out old laptop and my spelling and grammar are poor but who gives a damn...
Mate, at least you've been working, I can only say that its good to not be! Buggers, I'll be back at it soon enough but those thoughts can wait as I'm full of grog and having a ball.
Low-carbs means wine, eh? What about the suguar content of wine, is that an issue...
*Young lass that I'm keen on is suggestively drunk and waving to me from table with friends*... Jeez its good to be a red-blooked male...

Mac, rang Visa in India and had a 30 min banter about the weather here, sports, politics, business etc. They must ply their call centre guys full of 'local' info so as to make conversation, build rapport, suggestively cross-sell, make offers, pre-emptive closes on the deal etc... They are the champions of selling and I respect the undeniable stress levels that must go with that kind of work [I've done a spate of CC work and can appreciate the dehumanising nature of it].
It brings jobs, helps build economies etc but I would not work in an Indian Call Centre for all the Playboy Bunnies in Hugh's Bungalow, those hardworking buggers deserve whatever Visa gives and then some.

Yes means wine, too used to pints so shorts was a very bad idea. Drink them far too fast. Hope all goes well with the bird you want.Just tellher you know me and all will be well[/drunken ego rant]

Tom, your grammar is horrendouss [a bloody good sign given you've got the week off now]. I had to re-read your short piece 3 times as I'm too bombed to catch your dyslexic moments when you must slide the hand across the keys instead of fingers. T-shirt, Jeans and your favourite pair of Loafers - nothing more comfortable is there?
Funnily enough, I've just been handed a glass of Cabernet Saugvninon [that's gotta be wrong] *ahh* nice drop!
Bloody boozing, a few girls on the scene, a gut full of steak, a few laughs and a glass of Western Australia's finest red...

I think I'd like to hang with you...I have a friend from Wollongong, New South Wales that I met online. He came over here and stayed with me and me ex-wife for a month. We had a blast. That's when I found out Foster's was piss....LOL
<font color=red>GO BUCKS!</font color=red>
Tee, in total agreement there, my friend: Foster's is piss, goat's piss at that. No offence to my fellow Aussies but I cant drink that rubbish to save myself.
Its good to hear a fellow Aussie visited and more importantly its good to know you opened your doors to him as from what I'm being told we dont have the best of international reputations [loudmouths, piss-heads and womanisers is enough to rock anyone's perspecitve] but we're not all like that I assure you, as I'm sure your Aussie mate proved.
Mate, our James Boags is a top beer down here, they've just released this new drop called the St George and its divine... good time memories come flooding back.
