Thanks for the reminder. They use those to pack my coffee (two 1kg bags of beans in a carton about 25cm on a side), and I need to order more this week. I'll do it right now...
Cheers,

Are you bribing the officials? That's a serious offense.
But serious, where's the bribe? What's your offer? Cash, I want cold hard cash.

I couldn't decide between 'extremely poor quality' and 'approve'... Perhaps your wallet can enlighten me, no?

The images are broken in the preview (the window that opens by clicking the "Preview" button).
Just upload them, and use the little arrow near the file ton insert the image into the article.

I think Chris Maunder fixed it though, as it is working now and at one stage I had a screen saying "locked for editing by Chris Maunder"!

We all know about the Nigerian scam, but today I got a new one that really made me  ! Maybe you've seen it already, but it was new for me.
First of all, the subject was just: 'POLICE.' And was supposedly from: 'The Nigerian Police Force'.
The motto was a nice touch: 'Motto : To Serve And Protect With Integrity'
A few excerpts:
'The Cyber Crime Division of the Nigerian Police gathered information from the Internet Fraud Complain Center (IFCC) and we found out that you have been dealing with scammers/impostors for the past few years now and further Investigation revealed that you have spent a lot of your hard earned money...'
'We are very sorry for any inconvenience...you should have reported the issue to the Nigerian police before you started sending money to scammers but not to worry, we are on top of the situation now.'
And, the scam:
'Meanwhile Your long overdue Inheritance fund is still available and will be released to you via the real Central Bank of Nigeria, as soon as we verify that all investigation and report about you been scammed is real, I will send you a protocol to contact Barrister Daniel Olamide, a well-respected attorney of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, he will represent you and freely help you get all necessary documents to transfer your fund to your bank account under the watching eyes of the Nigeria police, the F.B.I and the E.F.C.C without any delay.'
And they finish off with: 'Remain blessed in Jesus name.' Just to let you know they are the 'good guys', I guess.
So, they are basically trying to find people who fell for the trick the first time, and trick them again!
As Shepherd Book would say, I wish for these people to 'burn in a very special level of hell'.
I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out how to use my telephone - Bjarne Stroustrup
The world is going to laugh at you anyway, might as well crack the 1st joke!
My code has no bugs, it runs exactly as it was written.

Is that somehow related to us being in big trouble if all the Pole's ice melted? And why do the Poles have so much ice?

I heard they switched all the ice from Iceland and the green from Greenland, and lost the remaining ice in a winner-takes-all boxing tournament.
