and.... JUMP

There are few times when I find myself laughing at innocent people being hurt, but seeing recent footage of a bull in Mexico escaping out of the ring and giving the crowd a taste of their own medicine did leave me thinking "good for him".

Sadly, the bull involved was killed, but there is something slightly satisfying about seeing an animal getting its own back on those who only came to see it tormented for fun.

Sometimes I just...

... hate Windows File Sharing. After I thought i'd stopped it, today I found out the kids at work could still get hold of my laptop's music collection, along with games, even though i'd removed everyone from the ACL's of all the shares. This was thanks to the nice read-only entry for "Everyone" in the root of the C-drive being applied to everything below it, kindly put there by Windows by default. Thanks Windows. Now I actually have stopped it (me hopes)!

Calendar

To make arranging things a bit easier, i will now *try* to keep my online calendar regularly updated. Feel free to moan when i forget :)

Sickening

In this desensitised day and age, very little shocks me. But every so often something like this does just that.

I cannot begin to imagine how someone could do this sort of thing. Perhaps even more worrying is the fact that nobody knew anything had happened until the police found photographic evidence, so how many more similar, completely undetected offences are committed on a regular basis? Not a pleasant thought.

Anyway, enough said from me. Hopefully the victim will never find out at an older age.

For those of you with taste ;-)
