That would be pussy. He said "puss". Puss is what you obtain when putting pussy through the blender.

Puss is a widely-used abbreviation used when talking to cats, at least in the UK. Pus is what you get from the infected scratches puss inflicts when trying to blend her.

I was just talking about this with SWMBO the other day.
For broadband, telephone and TV the cost for us is now around £1000 per year, when did that happen?
Its now the third biggest expense for a typical household.
1. Energy
2. Mortgage - If you have one.
3. Telephone, TV and broadband.
You'd think they would offer a better service!

Virgin did the dirty last year, sending a letter about my bandwidth increasing for free then one week letter sending me a letter saying 'by the way, we are going to charge you more'.
Last week the [insert Anti-Nowhere League lyrics from 'So What' here] informed me they would be charging me another '£3' a month(sure I can afford it but it's the principle and they really don't need that extra £3).
I wonder if the competition commission needs to be informed so that they can do something nothing about what looks like a cartel between the ISPs.

I had forgotten all about that one - but the lovely ditty came flooding instantly back to mind after this reminder.

I've always been partial to the one about the idiot who was suckered into launching his HD nuker on someone with an IP of 127.0.0.1; unfortunately all I could find were dead links and archive.org is blocked at work. 
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?

Following his AC/DC/ZOO[^], I clicked the next link for a history of the band[^]. There goes my morning.

Yep there went my morning too! But thanks for the link, I never really knew there history.
The friend that turned me on to A/DC in the early 70's we would go to his house after work some days drink bear and listen to them. The only way he knew to listen to them was "loud and proud".
