The last time I took LSD I got ass-fucked by an ewok. I think it was Wicket.

Cool.

I guess even if my computer can be switched I'll still be buying a new monitor though....

That was a damn good response. And very quick too.

The fact that you are Canadian is in your favour, because I'm English, and we need to boost the non-American presence.

That is a good point, but Adam and I have recently indulged in a public display of affection, which means I cannot take the fact that you are not him as my sole reason for appointing you manager. Any other reasons?

I'll have a US visa interview tomorrow morning. Coincidence.

No shit! That is a coincidence. Good luck man - maybe we will get to meet in person after all.

Thanks Ric. I'm not at home right now so I'll check when I am, although I have done a lot of dismantling and rebuilding of that computer, and I don't seem to remember any such switch. Would this switch be obvious and easy to find?

Over here in England our power points pump out 240v. I understand that over in America they put out 110v. That means that in order to use an electrical appliance from England in the U.S I would have to buy a step up conveter to boost the current to the neccessary level. My question is this: What's the deal with computers? Will I need to step up (or install a new power unit) or will it be able to run on 110v? The Specs for my system can be found here, although I don't think it mentions the power supply. Anybody have any clue?

So, yesterday I finally got a date for my US Visa interview, and now that it's actually happening and isn't just this unreal thing that was going to happen some day, I'm having mixed emotions. I'm worried how my family will take the fact that I'm moving (they know I am, but now it's more imminent, and I know my Mum will be upset. It's my life and I shouldn't feel guilty, but I don't like seeing other people feel sad). I'm worried when I move I'll be forced to take any old job and end up in the same shit life cycle but with different scenery. I'm worried I'm going to be living in a country where they don't teach evolution in schools

I'm both happy and sad to be leaving London. It's quite stange. It's onlt really now hit me what a big, life-changing move this is going to be.

Anyway, just wanted to get that off my chest.

It's like you're reading my mind. Ever been to North Dakota? I have. Too many times. It's not so much the Mother and Father -in-law who warrant the hillbilly title, but the extended family (aunts, uncles, cousins, etc) are bonefide trailer dwellers. As an educated British City Slicker, I simply CANNOT abide them at times.

But God help me if I air my opinions in the presence of the wife.

Geez, I'm out of it for a little while and everyone starts getting delusions of granduer...

None of you are immortal, and if you are, FrobozzCo's patented 'IMMORTAL-B-GONE' Blade will put an end to that. I have consulted my troll and he informs me that the blade sold to Warbler and consequently used to decapitate Dayv et al was, unfortunately, not of the 'IMMORTAL-B-GONE' variety. However, if Warbler (or anyone else) wishes to purchase one, I'm doing a 2-for-1 deal today to celebrate my acquisition of Warbler Inc (which has now been absorbed into the FrobozzCo umbrella and no longer exists).

As for Dayv's query about whether or not I intend to Conquer Middle-Earth, I already rule Middle-Earth because one of my aliases is Aragorn, son of Arathorn, King of Middle-Earth. For this reason I do not have time to partake in the day to day running of FrobozzCo and will be looking for an heir shortly (my first choice was my loyal troll, but I caught him doing something that we shall not speak of here and, long story short, I killed him).

Anybody who wishes to apply for the position of Manager here at FrobozzCo (please note that I will still be owner and overlord, but I will be one of those 'in-the-shadows' kind of guys (may also take up smoking)), please do so here. Employees of Mangler Bros are ineligible for the position, and although I will listen to AWK's inevitable application, I can 99.99999% gaurantee he will not be appointed (ah, who am I kidding - it's 100% certain he aint getting the job).

Let the auditions begin...
