Is the quality of food declining?
I don't often go to a fast food place (they have become really expensive as well), usually on the alcohol drenched weekend a burger and fries might see it's way to me. But talking about proper food, yes the quality has decreased alot. Salami, smoked ham&etc that you put on your toast all have a crapload of stuff in them which you didn't find some years back. As an example i can take elk. At certain big super-markets you can find elk meat, which actually don't taste that bad compared to other meat types. But i've also eaten it without the factories interfering (dads sis' - her neighbours are hunters), and it's a big different in the taste, yep ok partly because it's more fresh but also due to it being free from additions.

Today...
Quite an uninteresting weekend apart from football. Hope that Everton wins tomorrow. Two things that i've noticed lately; I never seem to get a reply on emails i send to people - Either i don't get a reply at all, or i get a short reply a week later or i get a proper reply weeks later. So i've decided that f it, no need for me to send mails. Also noticed something funny when i ask "friends" what they are doing on a weekend and if they'd like to have some beers. Probably 85% of the time i get "nah..." as an answer and if they say yes, then it's always "go to the town"... What's wrong drinking and watching some movie? I prefer that, since i don't really like going out and i think it's too expensive. I find it funny since i hear alot of times ze people goes out but i never hear about it until a week later or so. God damn it's annoying, and i think i'm gonna move into the department of f it about this too. So today, well... Played RS, watched football and had home-made pizza for dinner which was pretty nice. Tonight i guess it'll be more RS... Lol.

Buggy Laptop
Well i don't have any special advice, i guess if you know your stuff you could open it up and dig around. But wouldn't suggest otherwise. Until someone comes with a better advice, i'd suggest you to put a bowl/plastic bucket or something over it so ants doesn't start wandering around in your room. Reminds me of Denismage ant under screen topic lol, tho this is slightly worse.

Real life pictures - 3
@Promise: Nice catch. Might i ask two things: Do you ever release any back or you always keep 'em...? And if you keep them, how do you kill them? I saw you had hooked a couple of them, why? Why not use a less hurting technique when bringing them up? Personally i could never use that spearfishing technique, partly since we don't have that type of fishing but also since it unnessecarily hurts the fish.

The End of the World. What would you do?
Ask governing politicians why they did as they did on certain things. Drive a Ferrari 275 GTS, go up in a Viggen airplane (2 seater of course...) and fly to the Alps. Climb up a mountain with a lake view and just sit and admire the view. Then the wait begins, maybe i manage to sneak up a woman there too.

*NEW* Player Behavior Rants (No Naming Names)
No one speaks! God, i'm getting so fed up with this. Why does no one speak anymore? Not just the 130+ ones, but at all levels... At the moment i'm catching some fish at the fishing guild (saving for SS), (counted) 23 people are here... But none of them says a word! What's everyone doing? Watching a movie... Busy in clan chat... or what? And if the odd moment occurs when someone says a word, it's always about RS... Never about anything else... God it's so boring.

Will the real Bond please stand up?
Mr Scotland, Mr England and Mr Ireland are my favorites. Daniel Craig is pretty ok, but not one of my favorites. I wonder how the next Bond movie will be, Q&co must come back... I want them all in there, it adds to the "Bond-ness".

New laptop time
Well, took some time... /WF06b/321957-321957-3329744-64354-64354-3872814-3999901.html]http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/en/[garden tool] ... 99901.html http://www.skycomp.com.au/product.aspx?id=185702 The Asus one is a little bit more expensive, but better performance. Don't know about battery life, call and ask them.

2.5" SATA to USB 2.0 80GB
I don't know to be honest. If any of your relatives or friends have the same sort of cables, you could try theirs instead with your HD and see if it works (so you don't blow 10-20 on cables). Otherwise i suppose send it to repair - depending on what it would cost. Hopefully someone else can jump in with an answer as well.

2011/12 Football Season
Well, Everton were disappointing against Burnley. Really played lousy. But, i'm not a crazy enough football fan to not say well done Burnley (i like their home ground, not all these digital ads... More "old" feeling). On the other hand, Lescott has signed with Man City for 24m £. I hope Moyes bring in a couple of new legs before the window closes... Would be quite needed. I said to a friend this summer that i think Chelsea will bring the title home to them, and it looks like it since they are playing really well. And tonight's match, Liverpool... What was all that about? They played poor in my mind... And Gerrard... No idea what he was thinking.

Odd gui problem.
I'll pop in a reply until someone with a better clue of what's going on comes. Do you have a Vista disc or recover disc that you could run repair with and see if that changes anything? I also want to say try another graphics driver, but i don't think that's the problem.
