The USA is the first country where I found band-aids available in different colours to match different skin tones. Heh.

If your credit card was stolen, and you reported it to the issuing bank within 24 hours, do you have any liability insurance?
Before you answer the question, check with your bank's website.

An informal poll

Which fingers do you use most often for alt-tabbing?
With me, it's the thumb and the ring finger (both left hand, of course).

Man saved from croc shot in error
Excerpt from the article:
Excerpt from the article:
Two shots
Crocodile attacks and shootings are rare in Australia.
To suffer both at once is - to say the least - unfortunate.

It arrived!

Not sure if any of you saw my post on the C&H Complete Collection sale. Anyway, I ordered mine even before posting that.
The shipment arrived today. Right now my grin is wider than Hobbes'. Best part? I had some 66 bucks in my Amazon gift certificate account, so in effect I paid $1.69 for my collection!

Fifth
Jul. 28th, 2007 | 09:44 pm
I had never seen The Fifth Element until today. For some very strange reason, I thought for a long time that the movie was crap. Consequently, I had not read any of its reviews nor checked out user comments on IMDb.
And today I saw it. 10 years after the movie was released. And you know what? It kicks ass! Nobody but Bruce Willis as Korben Dallas.
On a related note, check out this funny article.

Best men's final at Wimbledon
Jul. 8th, 2007 | 10:09 pm
Well, the votes on the BBC website are in, and the 1980 final between Borg and McEnroe turned out the best of the lot. I voted for the 2001 final between Ivanisevic and Rafter, and I still think that that was the best.

For some reason, I can't seem to get Gwen Stefani's Sweet Escape outta my head. Hmm.

Incidentally, I was the first to break the news to the gadget world. Not that it means anything, but it's funny how the mainstream media is treating this as a newsworthy item. I don't think it's that big a deal, but I guess when "Apple" and "iPhone" are in the same sentence, everyone wants to have a say.

Funny, they never really fixed the slightly crooked logo (created by Gandhi, digitized in Gimp by yours truly):

Groan, not another one. A member of Global Ethical Hackers’ Association (GEHA)? WTF? If you look at the whois info for ethicalhackers.org, the domain is owned by the same guy. And the website is currently "under maintenance." Or was it hacked, I wonder?
