Have you ever had a day when you’re writing/typing and when you look at a words that you’ve written you think it’s spelt wrong, however the more you try to think how the word should actually be spelt, the more confused you become about how the words should be spelt? For me it’s never the [...]

I’ve been doing a bit of analysis on my blog hits over the last few months and have noticed that the number of daily hits on my blog has been fairly consistent, although it has increased in the last year. Having said that there have been some days when there has been a huge surge [...]

Identity thieves try to steal other people’s identities…Christ tries to steal our heart. Christ wants us to be more like like Him, but that doesn’t mean we should steal His idenity. Far from it, we will never be identical to Christ as we are human and as such we can never be perfect. However we [...]

Yesterday afternoon while I was visiting my Aunt in hospital, hubby tried to go on the internet at home, only to find it was down. After being on the phone for about an hour, he was informed by BT that it was our HomeHub that was broken so we needed a new one – it [...]

This is a bit daft but it does have a great message…enjoy! Jesus and Satan have an extended argument as to who is the better computer programmer. Finally, they agree to hold a contest with God as the judge. They set themselves before their computers and begin programming. Typing furiously for several hours, they enter [...]
I was sent this a few days ago, and it amused me, I hope it amuses you other computer folks too The Laws of Programming First law – The Computer is always right. Lemma one – Programmers are occasionally right. Second law - The amount of time needed to debug a program is inversely proportional [...]
