1) I did not know zazzle was that fast in delivery
2) I do have a collection of colorful ties, but these ones are outside
my taste because there won't be an occasion to wear them. That is
because I need to be able to tell a story why this tie in particular. If
you include a POV symbol and a text that it was "designed by the
official povray.off-topic mascot" I might be tempted.
3) If I had one I would use it (at the proper occasion). No problem.
4) when I pressed the 30 results per page button, nothing happened.
5) advertising yourself, isn't that too close to spam?

Heh, is OrchidXP the official povray.off-topic mascot?

He clearly used a bad screenshot program... no interactive features! <g>

yes, for a couple of years now. Details are lost in the mists of time.
He also became nearly the mascot of a gameplaying gang. Of course we
were very angry that another group was trying to steal our mascot, but
at the end they backed off and made him a regular member.

But it has to do with something called "bukkake".
Do NOT look this up, especially at work. (This is how I became the

Yeah, but probably only in the USA. In the UK it typically takes nearer
a week. (Unless you pay extra to have DHL deliver it. Then it takes more
than a month...!)

Hehehe. Well, I could do... (It would be far too small to read though.)

Perhaps. But seriously - I think I could advertise *these* all day long

Hey, did you know Zazzle now do baby clothes? I mean, who the heck is
going to pay $15 for a bit of white cloth with a tiny design printed on

Let me know when you have a model that animates a fractal zoom. Or at
least one that performs colour cycling ala FractInt when you press a button.
At work we used to occasionally have 'Horrible Tie and Ugly Sock Day' -
with prizes for the worst in each category. While fractals can be
beautiful I think any one of these would have won the tie category
easily. :)

Hmm, when will Zazzle start printing on those shirts tie can be used
with. I could easily fit a fractal (and a penguin, and... and... other
nice pics) on some shirts to wear at work.

Printing on shirts... I was thinking the exact same thing last night! ;-)
The buttons could be a problem.
OTOH, it would be nice to print on more of the area of a T-shrit. (E.g.,
on the sleeves.) Oh well...

Possibly, yes, but it should still be possible to print a 10x10cm olst
to another side of the shirt.

Don't worry about it. I sent all our users an email a while back saying
"If you see an error message like *this*, you need to do so-and-so". A
few days later, I got a call from some guy about how every time he
looked at a certain email it gave him an error message and no matter how
much he clicked it, it wouldn't go away. *sigh*
(Normal humans don't understand the concept of a picture of some text
being different to the actual text. Nor the idea that a picture of an
error message being different to a real error message. Next time you
feel like having a good giggle, try to explain to someone what the
difference between the string "7" and the number 7 is... Every
programmer in the land knows the answer, but not normal humans!)

Most of the people reading this are probably computer enthusiasts. Try
to remember that computers make up about 2% of this guy's job. (The
other 98% involves moving heavy equipment around, and mixing chemicals
in the lab...)

With earlier workstation I had a screenshot of error message (humorous
one "Invalid month on date 72.15.7265" (oslt, invalid month on totally
invalid date anyways). Every once in a while, usully when I was still
tired at the early morning, I clicked it to go away.

Hehe, the old "take a screenshot of a window and set it as the desktop
wallpaper" trick used to confuse the hell out of even the IT guys at school
:-) Or the "recurring task: launch solitare.exe every 5 minutes" on an
unused machine during a lesson.

That's OK. I was in line behind some woman at the electronics store
repair desk. The clerk spent, and I exagerate not, 40 minutes explaining
that while a laptop computer *does* have a battery, one nevertheless
needs to occasionally plug it in. And this is the icon that shows you
it's plugged in. And if you put the mouse over it, it tells you how much
it's charged. And if you take the battery out, and it isn't plugged in,
you'll lose whatever you haven't saved. And it'll charge faster when
it's turned off than when it's turned on. And yes, when the icon says
100% charge, it won't get any higher.
I suspect she takes the car back to the dealer when she runs out of gas,

I don't really know why, but some people become paralysed by fear when
they go near a computer. Otherwise normal people become unbelievably
stupid when confronted by a PC. It's as if their brain switches off
while using one.
I don't know - perhaps these people think normal common sense isn't
applicable to new technology?

Actually normal common sense isn't applicable to new technology.
Quote from Wikipedia
Of two general meaning attached to the term "common sense" in philosophy, one is
a sense of things being common to other things, and the second is a sense of
things that are common to humanity.
It is common sense not to stick your fingers in a live socket but only if you
know what a live socket is. IM(ns)HO

Sure, make and break my day.
The first statement made me almost sound normal.
The last statement not.
But I have run into the second statement. But most of the people in the
class I was in were 'normal'.

I remember reading someplace that some wealthy North American Indians
(due to the oil boom) would buy a car and when it ran out of gas just go
buy another one.

I once swapped the J & K keys on my keyboard at work.
It was great seeing other people try to figure out what was wrong.
