How cruel.
Griff took weeks to recover after the last time someone mentioned the movie that shall not be named.
It's also banned in Wales.

You missed:
Caerphilly What You Welsh For
Merthyr's Aberdare
Keeping Up With The Cardiffians
The Welsh remake of the French "Le Café Du Ponty"
The Bridgend of Kandahar
Crickhowellraiser
Menai Black (all 4)
The documentary about racism in South Wales: Black Swansea
Some of these were nominated for Llanthony awards.
You really have to hear (imagine) dial M for Merthyr in a Valley's accent.

I had a new day resolution I put into effect on January 1st, and it was not to use any computer. (Phones etc. acceptable).
I've been suffering from Information Creep recently, for example rather than just watching Indiana Jones over the xmas period, I find myself reaching for the laptop to go to the IMDB to see if I'm older than he was in the Temple of Doom (alas, I am). I then get distracted by other internet related stuff and lose track of the bloody film completely. (Not that terrible in this particular case). This sort of thing happens too much - the internet is a continual defocusing distraction.
But not on January 1st. Didn't check the news/bank balance/spelling of words/age of actors/codeproject/anything else. It's a bit like giving up smoking because you get the craving but all-in-all it was a good day. I'm intending to carry this on every Saturday from now on.
Worth a go, if you're tough enough.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

ADD?
Not being funny here, some people who are easily distracted have a "tendency" to have some degree of ADD.
|

No more so than the next I'd say. This is common, a lot of people I have spoken to have the same tendency. In fact, a lot of people I go to the pub with have a hard time just getting drunk, leering and talking nonsense without getting engaged with their phone for protracted periods. I don't ever do this, so I think I'm better than a lot.
If it is an addiction, or a 'life-style choice', then it may not become apparent that you're hooked until you stop. We don't need to look too far from here to see people who live on the net..
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

Wouldn't have anything to do with Shabbos (Shabbat) would it?

Of course it has - that's the origin. However I've learned over the years that there are other benefits than please God...

Simple Math on that
Bacon + eat + you = happy you
happy you + other people = more happy people
=> Bacon = more happy people => better you
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}

MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

This is good idea. I have three young kids who demand my attention the whole time and it makes trying to do anything extremely frustrating! Again, it's a hard thing to do but I'm learning the best way to handle it is to not try to do anything and just devote the time to them.
And since pretty much everything I do these days involves a computer, this is a step in that direction, on Saturdays at least.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

I found that if the phone or the keyboard not at hand it is much easier to pay attention to the kids (I have four) - so the physical separation works best...and the weekday not matters at all...
