The world ended for an hour today...what did you do?

Postby Beardy » Dec 5th, '09, 02:26



Well Talk Magic was down...I was crying...

Sitting, huddling in a corner, rocking back and forth...muttering...

What did you do with your hour?

Love

Chris

I spent a fraught couple of hours on the phone to American Express (we lost our last $300 of travellers' cheques) and also to a funeral home.

Apart from that, I must confess I spent most of the day playing Cake Mania. A stupid but extremely addictive game. Spent most of the night dreaming about cakes.

I don't entirely remember but you'll probably hear about it in the news tomorrow. Just look for something featuring mandrakes picture and the words YOUR FAULT written in blood.

Invoke not reason. In the end it is too small a deity.

I noticed Talk Magic was down so it forced me to visit 'other' magic forums.

I sat there with my hands together in a praying position.

Cried whilst in the fetal position repeating 'When will it end'. Then I realized the forum was down.

If you press F6 it highlights the address bar. And ALT+TAB switches between open windows. I'm an expert at one-handed surfing.

if you hold shift and spin your mouse-wheel backwards/forwards it moves you through your browser history...ctrl and the mouse-wheel gives you larger/smaller text...

there's loads to amuse yourself with...
