I would go completely bananas if I’d be on my laptop all day long. I can’t even handle sitting inside for two days in a row. One day is about acceptable, but then I just need to go out. I can’t even come up with a lot of interesting posts either, so that makes even less posts.

I hope people don’t think they have to post a lot for us to like them and care about them. That would bother me if people thought that.

I hope not too… I think they just enjoy it though.

There would be no fun rooftop parties, and people would most likely post slower.

Posting slower? Or faster? Neither are bad in my opinion as long as they’re not spammy.

Dear friend,

Based on the further explicit investment information about your country from my research i wish to invest in your country under your supervision.

I am Prince Fayed W. Bolkiah, the eldest son of Prince Jeffrey Bolkiah former finance minister of Brunei, the tiny oil-rich sultanate on the Gulf Island of Borneo. I save your time by not amplifying my extended royal family history, which has already been disseminated by the international media during the controversial dispute that erupted between my father and his tepbrother, the sultan of Brunei Sheik Muda Hassanal Bolkiah.

As you may know from the international media,The sultan had accused my father of financial mismanagement and impropriety of us$14.8 billion dollars this was as a result of the Asian Financial crisis that made my father company Amedeo Development Company and government owned Brunei investment company to be declared bankrupt during his tenure in the office. However my father was kept under house arrest, his bank account and private properties including a crude oil export refinery were later confiscated by the sultanate to avoid further prosecution from the sultan and his security operatives, but before I could do that I was placed under house arrest by the sultan and not have access to phone but I have a palm V hand -held computer from which I am sending you this mail. Some of the guard here are still loyal to me, so they would be my contact with you if there is any documents I need to send to you to enable you have access to this funds and invest it for me. 

Before my in-castration, I went ahead to dispatch the sum of five undred million United States Dollars {USD$500,000,000.00} in cash under special arrangement into the custody of different private Banks and trust company’s for safe keeping abroad. The money where splited and kept in the following countries, : in Canada, France, Spain, Holland andin London. Firstly, you will be required to travel to London to claim the money there before prceeding to other countries.

I seek your good assistance to invest these funds into a profitable investment in your country to facilitate future survival for my family abroad. After due deliberation with my aids we decides to offer a certain percentage to you as compensation for your co-operation and kind sincerity to carry out this assignment.

Since there will be an expenditure from your side, I will advice you not to worry about it because you will be reimburse any amount you may spend as to enable this transaction get to it’s final dream, for both local and international expenses will be given to you back while you will be part of the beneficiary of any investment made with this cash, to add to that, I will like to let to your understand that all this is not part of your financial compensation that will be given to you. 

During this dispensation Please I count on your absolute confidentiality, transparency and trust while looking forward to your prompt reply towards a swift conclusion of this transaction. Many thanks and blessing remains with you.

Finally, your financial compensation will be the 15% of the total cash. That is 15% of ( u.s $500,000,000.00 ).

Thanks.
Prince Fayed.W. Bolkiah.

Welp, my main laptop’s finally kicked the bucket – and it’s not even a bloody hardware failure! The wire that’s used to plug it in has pretty much snapped, so you have to reach round the back and hold it in, but it sparks and makes a horrifying sound so I’m leaving it for now. I’m using my smaller one which I originally only used for file back up and on-the-go, but it’s got an awful display and ugh.

Dear Joe…

Thank you for taking down the heal/hurt games. I noticed that they took up space in recent posts and rendered the forum untidy. But I also noticed that Heal/Hurt attendance had declined significantly ever since a heal/hurt game played by me, Bulldog, Anna, Eva, and Mr. kite went awry. Their attendance was declining. I obviously understand that there were several heal/hurt fans, and I do understand your feelings. They were fun at their peak, and we will all miss them. But I agree, that in the best interests of the forum, the heal/hurt games have to go. Thank you Joe for taking them down.

I did one of those “Which Beatles Song Are You” games/quizzes on Facebook. I got

Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

A true optimist at heart, you’re the one your friends go to when they need a little cheer. Here Comes The Sun and you say it’s all right!

I like it. I hope is is even at least a little true.

Would any of you want to take on a project like this: a Beatles “name that tune” style game where you do a small clip of a song and let people guess what the song is. I would like one that does the beginnings of songs (as many of them as you are willing to do). Then we could have you (or someone/s) do song endings.

has some clips, but they aren’t at the beginning of the songs.

However, I like how this site

http://www.ps11music.com/liste…..atles.html

is set up where you can type in your guess and see if you are right. (I can’t hear any songs on this site using my phone, and I can’t get to my computer to see if it works there.)

If some of you want to collaborate, you could do it via PM (like we have mentioned recently) and then post the game (maybe some songs at a time) for us some how, like perhaps on one of your YouTube channels?

**note, I only did a very quick Google search to see if something like this already exists. If someone discovers that it is already done out there, please let us know.

Sounds fun, and I’d be willing to help (if it’s not too technically demanding), even though I wouldn’t get to use it to its fullest. (I can’t be seen/heard playing little audioclips all day at work :( )
