Facebook and other social networks

Alarmingly, Facebook is now taking over our PC's and private information without letting us know.
The latest being a recognition software for photos.
This can lead to false ID theft and fake passports etc.

Facebook is now becoming VERY dangerous.

It's my belief that anymore and people will start to turn off Facebook as fast as they went onto it.

However, it does make you wonder what Google, Yahoo, Ask and any other clouding company are doing??

What is it with these Germans?

This mornings trip to work:

I was sitting down at the station waiting for a train.
This guy rushed up to the seats and dives at them, sending a Richter scale 7.0 along the seats and all sitting boinged all over the place.
Train comes and I walk onto the train (underground) and head for a seat, where another ADHD German rushes to grab my seat when the train was empty. I looked at him and he went opposite to me.Then he starts to talk to himself and fidgety all over the place.
I stand up to get off the train and the girl next to me pushes herself over to my seat, before I move anymore!

Fact from my employer.
They have something like 30,000 staff in Germany. Because of the politics and the Unions the bank cannot sack anyone, so people get moved to inane jobs. Munich is isolated as far as the locals are concerned ( that's why it's inbred) and they cannot get a job anywhere else. So they stick with the bank no matter how bad they are treated.
So the fact is 8-15% of the staff are alcoholics!!
This was found by a special team making a study in the bank.

Now you know what I have to put up with!!

who on earth did this survey????

Easyjet late again and buy us a coffee

Easyjet have screwed up again, but never admit it.
Last week it was a technical fault that they knew the night before but didn't announce it until 1 hour before take off.
Today must be the same.
They obviously do this to not comply with the EU rules on delays.

Last week 4.1/2 hours late and I didn't work so lost a days pay.
This week 3 hrs late sop may miss a days pay again.

This just isn't good enough, i need to look elsewhere.

The F.A. have a decision to make.

Capello has no idea how to motivate the England team.
The players are arrogant and cannot get motivated.
Let's take a look:
Hart - made mistakes and unsure, but I think still good
Johnson -  good at going forward but slow in turning to come back
Ferdinand - Good but getting on
Terry - Good but getting on. **
Cole - Good but getting on and makes errors and loses his player sometimes**
Wilshire - impetuous and is in danger of giving away silly free kicks or getting booked
Milner - Absolute waste of time. He cannot cross a ball properly. He has no imagination
Lampard - not playing as well as he could have in the past season and a half. **
Parker  - Workhorse but getting on.
Bent - 1 in 15 attempts to score. He had an open goal and can't kick with his left foot with an open goal.
Walcott - Good at times but has no imagination. Like Milner tries to cross when run out to the line and the defender just puts their boot in the way. also Walcott falls over his feet when he is confronted with 2 or 3 players and gets confused.
Baines - a good replacement for Cole but can lash out.
Downing -  never liked him and never will. Well over rated.He missed a goal as well.
Ashley Cole - good player but needs the open field and feeds from players.

All in all the team are too old.

However, although I wouldn't want to lose him Harry Redknap is the man to motivate all the players.
Although, he has his court case in July, so not until after he has been cleared will the F.A. offer him anything.

So if we are to do anything in the European Championship Harry needs to be brought in asap!!!

FIFA and Sepp Blatter fools

So Sepp Blatter says he needed another 4 years to make and change the FIFA.
I think it's more of another 4 years of corruption in his swiss bank account.

A corporation these days are given between 1-3 years to re-organize and improve.

Mr Blatter takes 12 years!

Doesn't quite seem right does it?

One thing is for sure, the UK may as well pull out because they will be the scapegoat for everything from now.

Hypnotist's Mishap Leaves People In Trance

....Three people were left in a trance on stage when a hypnotist knocked himself out during a show in Dorset.

Entertainer David Days, from Weymouth, was performing at Portland's Royal Manor Theatre on Friday evening when he tripped over an audience member's leg.

He was in the middle of bringing the participants out of a hypnotic state and could not be roused by his stage team.

The audience was asked to leave the theatre but they initially thought the commotion was all part of the act and applauded.

After a few minutes, Mr Days came round and was able to "wake up" the hypnotised trio.

Mr Days, 37, later wrote on his Facebook page: "I would just like to let my fans know that I am completely fine.

"A little bruised, but that's all. Thanks for your support tonight, it was a great show with some great volunteers."

His manager Tara Nix said the three participants were also "fine".
