Actually, the furniture's still there, I just left the flat :)

That, and the fact that when I bought them, they were the cutting edge of technology and had the
most travel of any fork - a whopping 80mm.

Not as such. I was going to transfer all the stuff on to a new server at home, except the DSL's not
installed yet. Hopefully, by the end of next week I should have everything sorted. Then I just have
to worry about DNS, domain registration, static IPs...

The sure fire way of doing it is to disable Javascript, but that will screw up going to
some websites.

This subject was recently discussed on alt.hacker and the concensus was that the best way is to
block the domains from where the pop ups originate (ad.doubleclick.net, etc):
http://www.staff.uiuc.edu/~ehowes/resource.htm - contains a program, that will automatically add
tons of these sites to to your 'Restricted Zone' list in IE. It is based on the hosts file compiled
by Stephen Martin (http://www.smartin-designs.com)

If you're looking for software, try http://www.webwasher.com, which was also recommended.

Why? I ride it places like this:

http://www.2fortheroad.net/pacifico/single.html

That was one of the few smooth sections where I felt comfortable pulling my hands off the bars to
snap a photo. All the while doing about 45 mph with no helmet, no brakes, no suspension, no
knobbies, no fear, all because I have BIG BALLS!

With your intellect, someone has to make things easy for you. And here's a wake up call. You are the
only fool in this conversation. But you're too stupid to see it.

ROTFL.....ok, ok you win!

"I'm ever upper class high society God's gift to ballroom notoriety I always fill my ballroom the
event is never small the social pages say I've got the biggest balls of all

oh, I've got big balls I've got big balls and they're such big balls dirty big balls and he's got
big balls and she's got big balls but we've got the biggest balls of them all

and my balls are always bouncing my ballroom always full and everybody cums and cums again if your
name is on the guest list no-one can take you higher everybody says I've got great balls of fire

some balls are held for charity and some for fancy dress but when they're held for pleasure they're
the balls that I like best my balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right it's my belief
that my big balls should be held every night"
