  1. Its certainly nothing special. Something that might be special is the new Radiohead album. I had it on at work the other day, but had to turn it off. It is not work music. I reckon though, that after several portions of wine and stuff that its gonna be total bliss. Just need to find the time to get a little drunk...
  2. 27 years to be told what everyone knew anyway, the police are a bunch of lying cunts.
  3. It would star a bunch of twats and be really really dull.
  4. Do you mean Zecharia Sitchin? I read one of his books, Genesis Revisted. I won't be reading another one.
  5. Ah yeah, that's a fun movie. I'll recommend it too.
  6. Recently watched The Lobster. In the future everyone is supposed to have a life partner, and if you don't you go to this hotel where you get 40 days to find one or you get turned into an animal. Or something. I think I enjoyed it, but I'm not totally sure. Its by the guy who directed Dogtooth, which might explain a few things. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bemcHBqng4o
  7. I reckon bitcoin could be used by the media, newspapers and magazines especially, for micro payments on their websites. The smallest amount you can currently send is 0.00005465btc or something, which is worth virtually nothing, but imagine you ran The Guardian and brought in a bitcoin paywall and charged 1 satoshi per article. Deposit the minimum with them and that is 5465 articles. Seems like nothing, and certainly to the reader it is nothing, but to the newspaper it would soon add up.
  8. No. Figured it was a bit late, and that as that number was posted over a year ago the lady might have moved jobs (a high probability if the job is as awful as reports of their delivery record are) she might not appreciate being called, so just thought I'd check before I go ahead and call it anyway.
  9. Anyone know if the above number still works, or if there is another one?
  10. Whatever happened to those? You used to see the signs dotted about the place but not any more.
  11. Good. I hope they got dazzled by someone elses lights and couldn't see. Those cars have really fucking stupid really bright white horrible headlights.
  12. It's very possible that I'm being a bit thick but can someone explain the figure from this article http://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/business/manx-government-sells-pinewood-shares-at-a-profit-1-7185485 It says "The sale, yielding a total return of £7.6m, cuts the Manx government holding in the film studios from 9.9 per cent to 4.99 per cent but it still holds shares valued at around £10.7m." but if it has sold half for £7.6m how can the remaining half be worth £10.7m?
  13. Hmmmm. Great work collating this information by Newsnight. Slim, you seem to be doing that thing you do. You should probably stop it. Were Ernst and Young not pissed off when Mr Christian set up his own thing and took the clients?
  14. Steven Christian must be pissing himself laughing at the amount of money he makes out of this whole IOM film scam.
  15. Here you go http://www.arrowroofing.im/products_HardtoFind.html
  16. I think that should be something a Minister should make a public statement on. The comments of the judge in this instance are quite clear, the response by the department is, however, not clear at all other than it offering condolences. The judge suggests computer records were wiped and the department has not commented on that aspect whatsoever. At the moment it's very clear how the public are reading this, therefore someone from IOMG should be stating the departments position clearly in respect of how it dealt with the fact that records were erased according to the statement issued by the Court - and what disciplinary action was taken (if any). Otherwise, well, the public are just going to assume one version of events aren't they? There is only one version that can be reasonably assumed. The records were deliberately deleted.
  17. I think you'll find a fair proportion of the people who end up in a police cell are later found to be suffering mental disorders,but don't let facts like that cloud your bigoted viewpoint. What bigoted viewpoint? I don't think you've read that post correctly.
