Orange seem to have gone crazy
Mar. 17th, 2010 01:00 pmTwice a year I get emailed with a Best Plan update, telling me if there's a better calling plan that would save me money based on my current usage.
The most recent one seems to have been created by a madman who thinks I might actually double the amount of money I spend on my mobile, even though I never go over my current inclusive minutes/texts...

Coherent Rage
Mar. 17th, 2010 06:46 pmJesus Fucking Christ the newspapers are annoying me today.
Two people died yesterday. They were on a cocktail of mephedrone, alcohol and methadone. Some of their friends were also checked out in the hospital, but were fine.
Now, an awful lot of people are taking mephedrone without it causing them any serious damage*, but these two friends die at the same time. What's the difference here?
Were they (a)taking ridiculously large amounts? (b)eating a bad batch of it or (c) could it be that mixing methadone and alcohol is a really fucking bad idea that's known to cause respitatory failure?
And the answer is - we don't know yet! The toxicology results are going to take days (or weeks) to come back - so the actual cause of death is currently _unknown_.
What do the newspaper jump on? "Two killed by Mephedrone!"
Which makes me, frankly, want to find the people that wrote half the articles I read today and smack them around the head repeatedly with a baseball bat.
*Obviously, insofar as we can tell - the jury is out on long-term effects

FREE COMPUTER STUFF
Mar. 17th, 2010 09:29 pmUnpacking some of Julie's boxes we just came across a GeForce 6200AGP with 256MB, and two 512MB RAM sticks (PC3200 184 pin DIMMS).
If nobody has a use for them then they're going to be binned.
Any takers?
