  Somebody's trying to kill me....

  And they are using my Achilles heel - food! (How did they know?)

  Ok, I don't know who it was, God, Karma (though what I could have done to deserve this is beyond me - maybe I'm a serial killer in my sleep) or just a nasty piece of work caterer, is trying to poison me. I believe it was a sandwich, because when I think of a sandwich now, I shudder, but something I ate last week gave me food poisoning. I spent half the week feeling like I was dying and the other half wishing I was dead.

  I remember at university a friend of mine got food poisoning from what doctors later described as a 'dirty burger' from a McDonalds. The poor guy couldn't believe how often he had to run to the toilet to throw up or... whatever, and counted 36 trips in one day. I remember how funny it was, but now, I'm not laughing. No, I don't think me laughing at him un-karma'd me into getting it, that was several years ago now, I'm sure I've been punished for that already - but good thinking.

  Question: Whats the worst you have ever felt, and what caused it? Nothing too gross please, I still have a weak stomach...

  Well anyway, I'm beginning to feel better now, and I can even leave the house - AAAAGHH THE LIGHT BURNS... no not really, I live in the UK. Its just bright. So, Ill leave you with a moral and a joke:

  Don't trust people that prepare your food! They don't have to eat it, so why should they care about washing their hands or what goes in it!!

  The joke is from a stand up comedian I saw on TV this week, I thought it was amusing:

  Did you know that there are more people in the rest of the world claiming to be Irish than there are in Ireland itself? The Irish tourist board is thinking of changing its slogan to Ireland: We're not all there.

  A first (well a second, see below)

  I have been using TV.com for a long time, but it was only today that I realised I had never signed in! well, I found that there was a lot more to this site than I knew. So, I see I am a weatherman. Do you think they made that so intrinsically undesirable so that people would contribute like mad and get the hell off it? I do, and I am trying to.

  All of a sudden i feel like Im in a RPG, and Im fresh out of D20's.

  Exiting news: I cleaned my keyboard today. It sounds dull dosent it? Well heres the kicker. I thought it was sealed, so I merrily sprayed it with an all purpose cleaner. Turns out it wasnt sealed. Now, I have a boobytrapped keyboard. I know if I press the right shift key, all my windows close down (this is the second time Ive written this out due to that little baby, hence the title). Its a multimedia keyboard, so some of the screwed up keys do interesting things to the net and videos... earlier I pressed F2 while watching a show on my PC, it shut down the show in media player and changed the folder options so that it opened that file and all files of that type with winamp (a different program). Now, for a one keystroke screwup, I thought that was pretty impressive.

  Ill keep you posted when I have anything else that annoys me to mention. It probably wont be long.
