Was trying to find a suitable picture of a drunken passed out person to make a poster out of, but I'm just disturbed by what I found. Always have google safesearch turned on kids!

Also that predictive search thing in google is draining more and more from the little faith in humanity I had.
The poster I was just going to be a girl passed out drunk, with some caption involving the word "mess". Google isn't always your friend if you're search involves the word "girl".

Elvis is fantastic.

Hmm, the only thing I can make out from your post is that you were at an Elvis impersonators' contest.

I was very anti dell, but i gotta say, their studio series are nice. Mine hasn't given me a single problem, save for the dvdrom drive occasionally skipping on playback using blank media, but thats a toshiba/samsung issue rather than a dell issue. It was fixed with a firmware upgrade.

But i wouldn't go near an inspiron if you paid me. I've fixed too many of them over time.

What are the chances that he dies on the toilet?

Only when he cracks the bole and the shards of porcelean impale him. Even Elvis had a threshold.
I can't stand Elvis myself, but for all those who can't stand him and used to call him a junkie who took everything, realistically, his only vice was pain pills.

Scary thought.

i am astonished at readin a sentence like that....thats a rediculous comment to make, everyones entitled to their opinion but how can anyone hate the king! :eek:

i have been lucky enough with my inspiron 6000, it has made it through college for me, admittedly the screen did break once and the screw thread on the bottom right it shot so at certain angles it either opens fully or closes, ...oh and i have killed two batteries and it has to be plugged in at all times, but apart from that its alright and has done me well!

I really can't stand him, for this big reason in my honest opinion.
I don't buy a lot of albums, however i do collect box sets. I have rake of the things at home, I like having boxsets of rarities by bands/artist i like. When i walk into HMV in Grafton St, the amount of Elvis box sets with the same sh*t songs and different packaging really makes me want to vomit. Denis Leary was right, someone should have pulled the trigger on the guy in 1956, not only would have we have remembered him in a nice way, but there wouldn't have been enough material to make a box set out of.

That said, they're still releasing Jeff Buckley material...

I've never actually broken a laptop, i've gotten 2 years out of each one before trading it in for parts. I don't know what people do to their laptops other than the obvious "I didn't do anything!"

Denis Leary, while funny from time to time, only says stuff like that for a reaction. Whats your excuse? A tad OTT I would have thought?

I break on average 1 laptop, 2 mp3 players and lose 1.5 phones and 3 bank cards per year.

True, but i was never a fan of his incessent crooning. I love the way everyone seems to think he's responsible for "Lonely This Christmas" every year though, when in actuality, Elvis had nothing to do with that song.

Haha, I am similarly clumsy/careless. Numerous Ipods have been lost/broken. Phones tend to go lost on holidays, always losing money. Had to stop wearing a watch as it invariably would go missing sooner or later.

Yeah, you should just stick to stuff from the Early Learning Centre.
