I do miss Advanced Dungeons and Dragons though.

In a week when one of our customer’s senior management team said
“No, we’re not upgrading Internet Explorer 6, we’re waiting for Internet Explorer 8 in Windows 7”

A user rings up and tells me “Google Maps doesn’t work with Internet Explorer 6.  I want Internet Explorer 8”

It was with some sense of Schadenfreude that I pointed the user at their senior management.

Footnote:
Yes, we want our customers on a later browser.  But the customers have internal business websites, which we don’t manage; which only work with IE6.

It’s enough to make an IT support guy cry.

If you’re silly enough to using IE6 on your home PC?  It’s time to stop using it

I was discussing the poor state of print media journalism, the other day over a drink, with one of the blokes that I work with.

Since it’s Christmas and all, here’s a Nicholson animation movie which sums up it up.

McDonald’s has been selling their “Grand Angus” burger here, it’s made from Angus Beef.

Not to be outdone, the Hungry Jack’s chain (it’s the Australian Burger King) retaliated with the Angry Angus:

The consensus at work is that the Grand Angus is the better burger.

A co-worker migrated the last user off our old BlackBerry Enterprise Server, Barry.

"Barry to be renamed to Nigel-No-Friends", was the announcement.

(Non Australian readers should look at the Urban Dictionary for the meaning of Nigel No Friends)

Update:
* Nigel No Friends = Billy No Mates, in the UK.
* Added the Nigel No Friends – Twitter edition picture.

I was searching for the coffee chart here, and I started typing hot co, and I got these suggestions from DogPile Image search

I suppose the results could have been worse (NSFW).

Do you mean recursion?  Yes, I mean recursion:
