Update seems to be that he hasn't been fired - just moved to a more constrained role... (per the register article)

I get the feeling that they know have something there, just no one is too sure what. Wen I went there pre-colossus start up there was all sorts of things the Churchill museum, A News Reel/1940's Cinema, the Computing Museum (the most commonly heard phrase was 'I wanted one of those',saw my first Sinclair QL there!), A Toy museum & several other things no one big enough to warrant it's own museum but worthy non the less.

I think she (the wife) had better buy some lottery tickets for the various draws.
Last July the wife broke her phone (a Galaxy S2) just before we went on holiday, I ordered her a Galaxy S4 replacement and it arrived the day before we left on holiday, so she was a tad chuffed about that.
Roll on a few months to yesterday. She lost the phone. She had taken the kids to school and had used the phone to pay by phone for the parking. He she got home after the school run, and countless retracing her steps etc. etc. but to no avail. She contact the school in case it was found there, the contact the Police to report the loss, and she contact the phone company to block the phone.
Well surprise surprise, the Police phoned the house 3 times while I was out this morning, but left no message. I phoned the wife to say they had phoned and suggest she phone them back.
Yes, they have her phone and she can collect it from them.
To say I'm shocked and stunned is an understatement. Needless to say she is chuffed to bits, especially when I said I wasn't buying her another one...

My wife dropped her iPhone 5 down the toilet last month, then used my upgrade which was due to get herself an iPhone 5s.
She flogged the one she'd dropped down the bog for £250 which softened the blow some what.

She demonstrated her evilness by selling the poo-phone to some sucker for £250 by not specifying what happened to it. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

That would nae happen in London. The Met would have sold it on and pocket the shekels. 
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Do they have an equal greatness, or is it okay for one to be the retarded brother in mind?

In my case, we are both the retarded one.

This is doing the rounds at work[^]
The FB android app is asking for permission to read your sms/mms messages.

They did already some time back already (like maybe 1-2 years ago). Was a reason for me to NOT install it. Seems like they removed it in the meantime. But, wasn't like I'd miss out on something.
And if you want to use facebook on you smartphone the mobile website is really sufficient...

That's the reason why the FarceBork app is no longer on any of my android devices.
On the PC I use FB in the browser.
