User #287549 8 posts DrBoon Forum Regular	I'm getting REALLY dodgy connections of late. I have no connection about as often as I do have a connection and when I do it's really slow. I know it says they have a damaged switch at the server site but there is no listed outages at the moment. I was kinda hoping to rely on this ISP for a constant stream of data, what with it being unlimited. Consistency in the speed I'm not too worried about, actually maintaining a connection though...	reference: whrl.pl/RbQ1re posted 2009-May-20, 8pm AEST

User #275600 20 posts Steve Welsh Dingoblue Internet ISP Representative	DrBoon We identified the problem and it should now be resolved. It was due to a numbr of things (a) our remote hands incorrectly reconnected ethernet leads to a piece of equipment by accident (b) we had a wierd udp problem appear. On advice of the hardware supplier, we performed a cold reboot of all the equipment late yesterday The later appears to have solved the problem with the upd and the remote hands correctly connected the equipment once it was identified. If it hasnt please contact the service desk as you may have another problem Thanks Steve Proprietor Dingo Blue	reference: whrl.pl/RbQ2nR posted 2009-May-21, 7am AEST edited 2009-May-21, 7am AEST

Cooking and renovation and gardening shows on TV

Lets go threw the heading one piece at a time.
Cooking
Yes you all watch the cooking shows with all those fancy dishes eating your pizzas and fast food. Wishing you could do the same, Here's the secret you can. It starts with turning off the telly and going to your farmers market and getting the ingredients. Visit your local butcher and buy some of the cheaper cuts as they are the best value, If you have money to spare then the more expensive cuts may be obtained as this leaves the cheaper cut for the less privileged.
Failing that go to the supermarket and shop the walls don't go into the centre of the shop as that is where the expensive stuff is. The most expensive stuff is in the isle where the control panel of the supermarket is.
I will post a video of cooking in my house and the way it is done. Go now and check out where to get the ingredients.
Renovation shows.
Yes after demolishing the fast food you are now ready for a sleep as the sugar content in the food you have just eaten does that to you. Start small patch the hole in the wall nail the paling back on the fence Fix a chair, you might even want to try building a chook shed remembering that a chook is only about a foot high not six foot. Do some drawing of the intended subject. Make a materials list and off you go the the local demolition yard as that is where the best materials are.
Do some dreaming as that is where it starts.
Gardening
Now most blokes who rent or live in a house know how to mow a lawn and this is a good start. I am not a gardener but I do possess four lawn mowers and um teen whipper snipers and some shovels and the like all bought from junk sales and the like. The thing is the TV has to go off, It will still be there when you get back and if its not that is one of those blessings in disguise.
This is enough to digest for now and I will revisit it again soon

Cabins

experiment

The great experiment of detaining people with out creative things to do in there lives. What happens is mental health and the associated problems. This experiment has been going on for years with the boat people coming to Australia and locking them up for years with out any stimulation . Taken from them is the drive for life and this is what the drugs of choice of the psychiatric doctors do. If this doesn't work then a good dose of electric shock torture will do the trick and take away the will to live. Yes the great Australian government experiment.
I have been saying it for ages the best way to treat the patients in most situations is a good case of hard work. For the Christians, Jesus went into the desert for forty days and forty nights with limited food and water and he survived for the story to be enacted to its end.
Remember if it doesn't kill you it will make you stronger.

Masturbation and cooking

This will be another one of those posts where I halve my readers

Masturbation is the thing that no one talks about! Why?
I remember reading a book by Louise Hay and she said it so well, God has the time to look over the edge of the moon and watch me going at it or something to that effect.
Is god a pervert?
Well if not he makes us all feel perverted and sinners. Remember "we are all sinners and god loves a sinner and not the sin" so there you are we can all go at it as much as we like cause god loves us.
This brings us to another subject, who is doing it?
Prince Charles? To get rid of Diana this must make him a suspect!
The prime minister of Australia Gulia Jillard no she isn't cause she is f-ing all the people of Australia and the American congress...
Yes masturbation what a wonderfull thing.
Goes well with pornography as a garnish with lots of oil warmed over a hot bed of white Satin sheets for about fifteen minutes.

God and the media

I am fed up with the claims of god and his followers and the media trying to scare the beegeebas out of me every time they have something to say.
For one I like satin paint and it's smell
