[10:22] <Mulreay> downloading a 5.6gb file.. man alive no idea what it is
[10:22] <@BC_Programming> lol
[10:22] <Mulreay> seriously no idea
[10:23] <@BC_Programming> how is that
[10:23] <Mulreay> looking into it
[10:24] <@jacky> BC_Programming: heard about that new virus out there?
[10:24] <@jacky> eats your whole computer
[10:24] <Mulreay> I started downloading a file,.. well because I could
[10:24] <@jacky> it is exactly 5.6G
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> Virus Alert
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> Delete it immediately before someone get's hurt
[10:24] <@jacky> not good enough
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> forward this message, on to everybody, forward this message on to everybody
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> NOW
[10:24] <@jacky> smash the hard drive
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> if yo uget infected, you'll wish you ahd never been born
[10:24] <@BC_Programming> so quick before it e-mails your grandmother all of your porn...
[10:25] <Mulreay> ohh it's finished
[10:25] <@jacky> yep..
[10:25] <@jacky> you are
[10:25] <@jacky> sigh
[10:25] <@jacky> heh
[10:25] <Mulreay> 543 for dummies
[10:25] <@jacky> Mulreay: seriously, how long did it take?
[10:25] <Mulreay> took 3hrs..
[10:26] <@BC_Programming> turn off your computer and make sure it powers down- then put it in a 43 foot hole in the ground. Bury it completely (rocks and boulders should be fine) and then burn the clothes that you may have worn anytime you were alive.
[10:26] <@BC_Programming> sorry I like rhyming
[10:26] <Mulreay> lol
[10:26] <@jacky> I thought that was 53 feet
[10:26] <@jacky> are you sure?
[10:26] <@BC_Programming> oh no
[10:26] <@jacky> it crawl out!
[10:28] <Mulreay> I have new films... need some blank DVD's
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> mmm
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> blank
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> tasty
[10:29] <@BC_Programming> oh sorry I mean bland, I was thinking of english food
[10:30] <Mulreay> I broke my little toe.. this hurts so much
[10:30] <@jacky> BC_Programming: with his new speed, Mulreay is going to be like the black hole of the internet.... just sucks up *everything*
[10:30] <@jacky> heheheh
[10:30] <@BC_Programming> that's what I do
[10:30] <@BC_Programming> "Whatcha downloading"
[10:30] <Mulreay> jacky lol
[10:30] <@BC_Programming> "I dunno"
[10:30] <@jacky> BC_Programming: seriously?
[10:30] <@jacky> does your isp not ever get vexed?
[10:30] <@BC_Programming> well I forget what I'm downloading until I check
[10:31] <@BC_Programming> yesterday I downloaded a ~4GB torrent in less then an hour
[10:31] <Mulreay> I downloaded 'avatar' in 10mins I appreciate that is wrong
[10:31] <@jacky> you guys have some phenominal speed.
[10:31] <@jacky> heh
[10:31] <@BC_Programming> oh yeah
[10:31] <@jacky> BC_Programming: does your isp not care?
[10:32] <@BC_Programming> not afaik
[10:32] <@jacky> amazing
[10:33] <@BC_Programming> well it is like 50 dollars a month or so
[10:33] <Mulreay> my foot hurtsz
[10:33] <@BC_Programming> put a sock on it
[10:33] <@BC_Programming> haha
[10:34] <Mulreay> man it hurts so much.. I can barely walk
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> would you PLEASE put a sock on it
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> heh
[10:34] <Mulreay> heh
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> I got a genius idea
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> a new transformers
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> the first one, they transformed into cars or whatever
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> then there was that other one where they were... animals, or something
[10:34] <@BC_Programming> what about
[10:35] <@BC_Programming> kitchen appliances!
[10:35] <@BC_Programming> mike-ro-waveabot
[10:35] <@BC_Programming> toaster-tron
[10:35] <@BC_Programming> and their leader
[10:35] <@BC_Programming> egg-timerus prime!
[10:35] <@jacky> (too much downloading, can addle one's brains)
[10:36] <@BC_Programming> the bad guys are bathroom things
[10:36] <@BC_Programming> like deceptimirror
[10:36] <Mulreay> ot downloading anything
[10:36] <@BC_Programming> and limescalebuildup-bot
[10:36] <@jacky> Plunger Face ?
[10:36] <@BC_Programming> yes exactly
[10:36] <Mulreay> not*
[10:36] <@BC_Programming> plunger face is a toothbrush
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> or a plunger
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> I suppose both work
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> and the leader
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> lavatron
[10:37] <@BC_Programming> the toilet
[10:37] <Mulreay> Need to shave...
[10:38] <@jacky> the mention of toilets, makes you want to shave?
[10:38] <@jacky> Freud would have something to say about that....
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> I was thinking the same thing
[10:38] <Mulreay> it does now
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> I'm sure fruend would probably talk about his mother
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> freud*
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> dammit
[10:38] <@BC_Programming> Freud*
[10:38] <Mulreay> lol
[10:38] <@jacky> Phroid
[10:39] <@BC_Programming> ACK!
[10:39] <@BC_Programming> I must correct!
[10:39] <@jacky> Cathy
[10:39] <Mulreay> ok gonna shave
[10:39] <@jacky> Mulreay: use tap water, not toilet water. Just a friendly reminder....
[10:39] <Mulreay> lol
[10:39] <@BC_Programming> only the french use toilet water
[10:40] <@BC_Programming> they call it a perfume
[10:40] <@BC_Programming> freaking weirdos
[10:40] <@jacky> Ode de Twa-let
[10:40] <@BC_Programming> eau de toilette
[10:41] <@BC_Programming> parlez ne vous francais?
[10:42] <@jacky> Je ne parle pas en Francais
[10:42] <@BC_Programming> dammit
[10:42] <@jacky> damm-ette ?
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> you said... I don't speak.... something.... in french... dunno what pas means
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> too lazy to check
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> hell you might have made it up
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> that's what I do
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> "eh, sounds french enough"
[10:43] <@BC_Programming> stick a few tortilla's and salsa and other mexican-type words to to confuse people
[10:43] <@jacky> that is the only sentence that I really tried to commit to memory, to get it correct... from high school French
[10:44] <@jacky> and, fo course, I could have it wrong, now
[10:44] <@BC_Programming> what does it mean, "I don't speak in french"?
[10:44] <@jacky> I do seem to recall, that enclosing a verb, in "ne" and "pas" means to negate it
[10:44] <@BC_Programming> oh yeah
[10:44] <@BC_Programming> heh, I fail
[10:44] <@jacky> thus, in French, I believe it says, "I do not speak French"
[10:45] <@jacky> at any rate, that is the attempt
[10:45] <@BC_Programming> la fook
[10:45] <@BC_Programming> heh
[10:45] <@BC_Programming> I know where bigfoot is
[10:45] <@jacky> Doesn't PePe LaPue look a bit like a striped possum though?
[10:46] <@jacky> Did Elvis tell you where bigfoot is?
[10:46] <@BC_Programming> damn
[10:46] <@BC_Programming> he told you too didn't he
[10:46] <@BC_Programming> he said I was the only one
[10:47] <Mulreay> my toe is so broken
[10:47] <@BC_Programming> I already told you
[10:47] <@jacky> Mulreay: did you shave it already?
[10:47] <@BC_Programming> put a sock on it
[10:47] <Mulreay> I just shaved
[10:47] <@jacky> your toes, too?
[10:47] <Mulreay> lol
[10:48] <@BC_Programming> I shave my toes all the time
[10:48] <Mulreay> my face
[10:48] <@jacky> be careful... BC knows where Bigfoot is, ... ... I wonder if Bigfoot ever shaves his toes...
[10:48] <@BC_Programming> of course not
[10:48] <@jacky> oh
[10:48] <@jacky> ok
[10:48] <@BC_Programming> where would he get refills of the blades?
[10:48] <@jacky> at the BigFoot 7-11 ?
[10:49] <Mulreay> man alive..you guy's make me wee
[10:49] <@BC_Programming> touche
[10:49] <@BC_Programming> Mulreay: good, I've heard that it's bad if you don't wee at all
[10:49] <@BC_Programming> some sort of illness
[10:49] <Mulreay> Ahh cancer
[10:49] <@BC_Programming> I think they prescribe diuretics
[10:49] <@BC_Programming> no not cancer
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> oh yeah, did you remeber to grab some more weird al?
[10:50] <@jacky> BC_Programming: I wonder if he has one of those new wee proof keyboards though?
[10:50] <Mulreay> I have friends.. non of them like me...
[10:50] <@BC_Programming> that's where I steal most of my material
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> Mulreay: of course not, nobody wants to be friends with somebody with a piss-soaked keyboard
[10:51] <Mulreay> lol
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> seriously
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> I saw it on a talk show
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> jerry springer or maury or something
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> "my friend uses a keyboard that is not piss proof"
[10:51] <@BC_Programming> it was awful
[10:52] <Mulreay> There are a few people that like me.. searching... be right back
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> it was right after the "my french teacher plays with a cheese piano"
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> segment
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> Mulreay is going to look in the garbage
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> for the comics he through out
[10:52] <Mulreay> lol
[10:52] <@BC_Programming> threw*
[10:53] <@BC_Programming> the comic? just happens to be... the transformers <kitchen edition>
[10:53] <@BC_Programming> *Dear gawd, eggtimerus prime! we have a spy in our midst!"
[10:53] <@BC_Programming> Who could it be? Toastertron?
[10:53] <@BC_Programming> No, he'd be a little out of his *element*
[10:53] <Mulreay> It's funny when you have slept wth more women than you can remember names
[10:54] <Mulreay> I have 14
[10:54] <@BC_Programming> and yet you still remember what all their penises looked like
[10:54] <@BC_Programming> lol
[10:54] <Mulreay> lol
[10:54] <@BC_Programming> wait what? they aren't supposed to have one
[10:54] <@BC_Programming> uh oh
[10:55] <Mulreay> I think its 14...
[10:55] <@BC_Programming> inches?
[10:55] <Mulreay> I wish
[10:55] <@BC_Programming> everything seems bigger with metric
[10:56] <Mulreay> nope looking on my old mobile ... it's defianty 14... my ex is a twat though so
[10:57] <@BC_Programming> one of my co-workers is a huge user of women, whic h found out yesterday
[10:57] <@BC_Programming> broke up with this one girl, he was all "oh I am so gonna marry her" stuff right
[10:57] <@BC_Programming> next day, he's with some other chick
[10:57] <@BC_Programming> it's like
[10:57] <@BC_Programming> wtf
[10:58] <Mulreay> lol
[10:58] <@BC_Programming> and I was all
[10:58] <@BC_Programming> oh no you DI-ENT!
[10:58] <@BC_Programming> but it was cool
[10:58] <@BC_Programming> I got a free package of waffleberries
[10:59] <@BC_Programming> <Warning: the above makes absolutely no sense and may cause abrain hemmorage>
[10:59] <@jacky> as fun as it might be here, I need to go and do some things
[10:59] <@jacky> heh
[10:59] <@jacky> catch you all later
[10:59] <@jacky> thanks for the smiles
[11:00] <@BC_Programming> bring me back some waffleberries
[11:00] <Mulreay> later
[11:00] * jacky (the_kink@mib-1DE0F03C.slsbmd.east.verizon.net) has left #glitchpc
[11:00] <@BC_Programming> I'm going to plant a waffle tree
[11:00] <@BC_Programming> for the express purpose of harvesting waffle berries
[11:00] <@BC_Programming> I guess I'll have to plant a maple tree
[11:00] <Mulreay> Nearly done
[11:00] <@BC_Programming> I need a maple tree for the obvious reason
[11:01] <@BC_Programming> that I want to attract the plump maple-bird, so I can catch it and smush it into a fine syrupy paste
[11:01] <@BC_Programming> nothing like fresh ground maple syrup from the maple bird
[11:02] <@BC_Programming> that's why you see all those buckets attached to maple trees
[11:02] <@BC_Programming> the maple bird is a curious beast
[11:02] <@BC_Programming> and jumps in
[11:02] <@BC_Programming> and get's stuck in the sap
[11:02] <@BC_Programming> and eventually some freshman comes along and beats it into a syrup
[11:03] <@BC_Programming> frenchman*
[11:03] <@BC_Programming> although freshman works too
[11:13] <@BC_Programming> Oh no, I've killed Mulreay
[11:22] <Mulreay> this hurts so much
[11:22] <@BC_Programming> how did you break your toe anyway
[11:23] <Mulreay> I walked into a door.. this hurts so much
[11:23] <@BC_Programming> so.. you stubbed your toe?
[11:24] <Mulreay> I'm gonna kill someone
[11:24] <@BC_Programming> well good thing I'm several thousand kilometers away then

[11:47] <camerongray> hey Calum
[11:48] <@Calum> hey cameron
[11:49] <@Calum> today's been a long day....
[11:49] <camerongray> why?
[11:49] <@Calum> I built in one of those horrific Thermaltake Level 10 cases today
[11:50] <@Calum> or, as the sticker on it actually said - "thermaltak"
[11:50] <@Calum> yes...the "e" was missing. On a ?500 case.
[11:50] <camerongray> lol
[11:50] <camerongray> It looks hard to build in
[11:50] <@Calum> it tired me out...so heavy, awkward, cable management options are nonexistent
[11:50] <@Calum> there is nothing good about it, not a single thing
[11:51] * camerongray can't cope with heavy things
[11:51] <@Calum> heh
[11:51] <@Calum> I could barely lift it back onto the floor
[11:51] <camerongray> You should have seen me carrying the Antec 900 from the post office
[11:51] <@Calum> sheesh..900 is nothing compared to my case, the level 10 is even heavier I think
[11:51] <@Calum> 24kg or something, empty?
[11:52] <@Calum> !g 24kg in lb
[11:52] <@Calum> !g 24kg in stone
[11:52] <@Calum> hm....it seemed heavier than that, maybe because it was so awkward
[11:58] <camerongray> Yeh, that's what I was thinking
[11:58] <camerongray> It was very awkward
[11:59] <camerongray> I couldn't get my arms round it properly
[11:59] <@Calum> you need longer arms heh
[11:59] <camerongray> yep and some muscle
[11:59] <@Calum> heh
[11:59] <camerongray> and My house is up hill from the post office
[12:00] <camerongray> wasn't as bad as taking a PC on the bus
[12:00] <@Calum> heh
[12:01] <camerongray> I got it from a friend and took it home after school. The bus was full and there were no seats
[12:01] <camerongray> Wouldn't have been as bad if I could have used the bag shelf bit but there were people sitting it :P
[12:02] <@Calum> heh
[12:03] <camerongray> on that level 10 case, where do the cables go?
[12:03] <@Calum> everywhere haha
[12:03] <@Calum> it's a little hard to explain
[12:04] <@Calum> the power supply cables all run down the back, and then into the optical bays and the mobo area
[12:04] <camerongray> ahh, sounds very easy to ugrade :P
[12:04] <@Calum> the HDD bays, the top 2 are hotswap bays and already have SATA and power cables, just connect them up...others you have to connect individually
[12:04] <@Calum> it's a massive pain to do anything with. A modular PSU is a requirement, non-modular would mean way too many cables to even fit
[12:05] <@Calum> this build had one graphics card, 2 HDDs, a DVD drive and an SSD...was difficult
[12:05] <@Calum> cooling is terrible too
[12:05] <@Calum> buld quality appalling, I wouldn't accept that level of quality from a ?20 case
[12:06] <camerongray> wow, I thought it would be really good
[12:06] <@Calum> if I ordered it, not reading reviews etc and expected to get what I paid for, I'd send it right back and demand compensation
[12:06] <@Calum> it is the worst case I have ever seen or used, and I've seen/used some pretty terrible cases
[12:06] <@Calum> I'm not even exaggerating
[12:06] <camerongray> heh
[12:07] <camerongray> I hate flimsy cases, I had one to replace the PSU and actually bent the side panel taking it off
[12:07] <@Calum> yeah..this is flimsy too
[12:07] <@Calum> flimsy is the worst thing a case can be, IMO
[12:08] <@Calum> scratches easily
[12:08] <camerongray> The one I bent is the single worst case I have seen, cuts your fingers and the sound from the HDD drives you insane
[12:09] <@Calum> heh
[12:09] <@Calum> you could always downgrade to the level 10 :)
[12:09] <camerongray> hahaha
[12:09] <camerongray> Colors-IT I think
[12:10] <@Calum> that name rings a bell
[12:10] <@Calum> think I may have used one of their cases once
[12:10] <@Calum> not for me of course heh
[12:11] <camerongray> It was terrible, it came with a PSU that was light as a feather, no wonder it burned out after a year
[12:11] <@Calum> ugh
[12:11] <@Calum> bundled PSUs....terrible 99% of the time
[12:12] <camerongray> Yeh, seen the bundle in Maplin
[12:12] <camerongray> Cost ?29.99 or something
[12:12] <@Calum> ah, Maplin, the home of quality electronics....
[12:13] <@Calum> nothing bought from there ever blows up
[12:13] <@Calum> apart from my sarcasm detector....
[12:15] <camerongray> hahaha, I sometimes buy components and soldering stuff
[12:15] <camerongray> it's okay
[12:15] <@Calum> heh

[12:15] <camerongray> hey jacky
[12:15] <@jacky> camerongray: Hello
[12:15] <camerongray> here it is: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=48961
[12:16] <@jacky> !g 35 pounds in USD =
[12:18] <camerongray> jacky: Calum and I were discussing rubbish cases and I was saying that that is the worst one I came across
[12:18] <@Calum> cameron is lucky
[12:18] <@Calum> he's never been introduced to the Thermaltake level 10
[12:19] <@jacky> camerongray: just did a !rerun
[12:19] <@jacky> heh
[12:19] <@jacky> yep
[12:19] <@jacky> Calum: is that thermaltake case a bad one?
[12:20] <@Calum> the worst I have ever seen
[12:20] <@jacky> camerongray: in the description, at that link you provided... "Designs may vary"
[12:20] <@jacky> heheehe
[12:20] <@jacky> that's telling you something, I'd think
[12:20] <@Calum> brb, need to reboot
[12:20] <@jacky> Calum: I thought thermaltake was a decent company, somehow. What about their power supplies?
[12:21] <camerongray> yeh, the one shown is the one that I cut my finger on, bent the side of, blew supplied PSU and deafens you with the hard drive vibration
[12:22] <@jacky> camerongray: my old computer... cpu fan was getting noisy... I didn't realize how loud it was.. heheeh I can't hear anything, and this computer is right by my knee. Actually, only occasionally, I can hear the hard drive when it seeks
[12:24] <camerongray> grr, my laptop says that the CD I inserted isn't formated - WTF
[12:24] <@jacky> format it UDF, not WTF
[12:24] <@jacky> hehehee

[12:25] <Calum2> how annoying
[12:25] <@jacky> "Calum" is still here
[12:25] <@jacky> I can ping him
[12:25] <Calum2> that's a little strange
[12:25] <Calum2> heh

[12:26] <@jacky> you figured it out?
[12:26] <@jacky> hehehe
[12:26] <Calum2> nope...didn't do anything
[12:26] <Calum2> ah well
[12:26] <@jacky> I wonder what was replying to the ping?
[12:26] <@jacky> did you catch my question about Thermaltake?
[12:26] <@jacky> 
[12:26] <@jacky> 
[12:26] <@jacky> <@Calum> brb, need to reboot
[12:26] <@jacky> <@jacky> Calum: I thought thermaltake was a decent company, somehow. What about their power supplies?
[12:26] <@jacky> 
[12:26] <Calum2> which one?
[12:26] <Calum2> ah
[12:27] <Calum2> they make some decent PSUs...key word, some
[12:27] <Calum2> cases are trash
[12:27] <@jacky> oh. ok
[12:27] <@jacky> so the brand name is not automatically associated with quality
[12:27] <Calum2> nope
[12:27] <@jacky> including psu
[12:27] <@jacky> ok
[12:27] <@jacky> I was mixed up
[12:27] <Calum2> their PSUs are either good...or terrible
[12:27] <@jacky> quality psu names are.... ?
[12:27] <Calum2> their coolers aren't good either
[12:28] <@jacky> maybe I'd read a review of a good one, just randomly, then
[12:28] <Calum2> Corsair are all quality. Antec, mostly quality. PC Power & Cooling, ditto...OCZ, some. Be Quiet, all. Seasonic, all.
[12:28] <Calum2> just off the top of my head...there are more
[12:29] <@jacky> Antec... that's the one that was slipping my mind... yes, you'd said that to me once over the last couple weeks... regarding Antec, I think the wording was something like, "they do make a few turds"
[12:29] <@jacky> heheeheh
[12:29] <Calum2> heh yes
[12:29] <Calum2> 95% of their current lineup is high quality
[12:29] <@jacky> Be quiet and Seasonic... never heard of them
[12:29] <@jacky> interesting
[12:29] <@jacky> what is wrong with the other 5 % though?
[12:29] <Calum2> Be Quiet aren't a big manufacturer
[12:29] <@jacky> I mean... knowing you... is it just that they are noisier?
[12:29] <Calum2> Seasonic mostly manufacture PSUs which are rebranded
[12:29] <Calum2> heh, nope
[12:30] <@jacky> as for providing quaility power, and long life?
[12:30] <Calum2> they're just not good quality
[12:30] <@jacky> are those your qualifiers? quality juice and long life?
[12:30] <Calum2> yes
[12:30] <@jacky> what else?
[12:30] <@jacky> cool
[12:30] <Calum2> good warranty, service
[12:30] <@jacky> ok
[12:30] <@jacky> oh..
[12:30] <@jacky> about cases, etc.
[12:30] <@jacky> estimate, of course
[12:30] <@jacky> from moving one computer
[12:31] <@jacky> and immediately picking up the other
[12:31] <@jacky> my old computer... at least is 1.5 times heavier
[12:31] <@jacky> than this new one
[12:31] <@jacky> It might be close to double
[12:31] <@jacky> heh
[12:31] <Calum2> heh
[12:31] <@jacky> I think a lot of that, is the case
[12:31] <@jacky> the new antec case is much lighter. nothing wrong with it... I accept that things change
[12:32] <@jacky> you guys were talking abou tflimsy
[12:32] <@jacky> the old case
[12:32] <@jacky> definitely NOT flimsy
[12:32] <@jacky> hehehe
[12:32] <Calum2> he
[12:32] <Calum2> *heh
[12:32] <@jacky> brb.... getting something to drink
[12:33] <camerongray> grr... Looking for new laptop for mum, find one that does exactly what she needs, good price blah blah blah
[12:33] <camerongray> "Oh, It doesn't have a numberpad"
[12:34] <Calum2> heh
[12:34] <camerongray> Her current one doesn't have one but for some reason she NEEDS one
[12:34] <@jacky> Calum2: awoke this morning, to a big old "Failed" on the SeaTools DST test
[12:34] <@jacky> it does that
[12:34] <@jacky> when you forget
[12:34] <@jacky> that the new os has stuff enabled, to shut down drives, monitor...
[12:34] <@jacky> heheheeh
[12:34] <Calum2> heh
[12:34] <@jacky> ran it again..
[12:35] <@jacky> docs said that it would just slow it down
[12:35] <@jacky> if computer was in use
[12:35] <@jacky> so, I ran it
[12:35] <@jacky> a little over 3 hours to complete
[12:35] <@jacky> Passed
[12:35] <@jacky> :)
[12:35] <@jacky> didn't find "DST" until I realized that it was Drive Self Test.
[12:36] <Calum2> cool
[12:36] <@jacky> I was pleased
[12:36] <@jacky> and... thanks for directing me to the proper test, etc.

[12:47] <@jacky> doing ok
[12:47] <pottsi> good
[12:47] <@jacky> worked up a sweat, outdoors, a while ago
[12:47] <@jacky> heh
[12:48] <pottsi> hah
[12:48] <@jacky> just getting something to drink, then back at it
[12:48] <pottsi> nice
[12:48] <@jacky> just 8 weeks ago, I was still b*tching about the snow
[12:48] <@jacky> wow
[12:48] <@jacky> heheeh
[12:48] <pottsi> xD
[12:48] <@jacky> here's something interesting....
[12:49] <@jacky> I hit something with the shovel
[12:49] <@jacky> only about 6 inches under the surface
[12:49] <@jacky> dug it out
[12:49] <@jacky> undamaged
[12:49] <pottsi> comdom?
[12:49] <@jacky> an old root beer bottle
[12:49] <@jacky> looks in perfect shape
[12:49] <@jacky> in my yard, mind you
[12:49] <@jacky> I wonder how long that has been there.....
[12:49] <pottsi> orly
[12:49] <pottsi> xD
[12:49] <@jacky> online.. I find little info on it.
[12:50] <@jacky> just "date" is 1948 and again at 1949
[12:50] <@jacky> that's about the time when my father moved back here, after the war
[12:50] <pottsi> o wow
[12:50] <@jacky> He was born here, and was gone for some years, due to that
[12:51] <@jacky> likely, either he, or some of his friends... perhaps his brothers... drank that soft drink
[12:51] <@jacky> hehehe
[12:51] <@jacky> just dumb luck, that it had never been dug up before, and that I didn't break it when I hit it
[12:53] <pottsi> indeed
[12:55] <camerongray> Under my house is full of rubbish from the builders in 1968
[12:55] <@jacky> not good
[12:56] <camerongray> lol
[13:07] <camerongray> bbl, time to put food in mouth!
