Random Thoughts....

Is anyone else seriously disturbed by Microsoft's new bing.com commercial? I feel like I'm going to have a panic attack just watching it.

I can honestly say I'll never use bing.com just because of that commercial.

If you search Top Gear, FG is number 5 on google. Isn't even on the first page on bing. <_<
 
I just got diagnosed with 'Postural Hypotension'. Lovely. It means to have to get investigated by clever people and put on a tilt table to see what happens to my blood pressure when I get, well, tilted.
Sounds kinda fun :rolleyes:

Awesome, they've used that table on House a few times. Let us know how long you go before passing out! :p
 
Yeah, well he said to me erm, when I stand up and my muscles go into to tension (to obviously make me be able to lift myself) this tension causes a rush of blood which makes my blood pressure drop but the rush of blood is normally dealt with automatically, causing no dizziness etc. but with me my body doesnt do nothig to stop it so my blood pressure drops anyway and I have to deal with the results of black-ness and dizziness :)

Woah, that's kinda long.

And Labcoatguy; I'll be sure to let you know.

And I have to get blood taken, anyone have any advice of what to expect?

Normally they'll take you to dinner, then to go dancing at a fancy ballroom, and when you're outside on the balcony getting air they go for your neck. Either that, or it's a pinprick on the inside of your elbow, a few awkward seconds when you realize there's a needle in you, then they pull it out and put some sticking plaster over it. Have you not had blood drawn before?
 
Nope, i've never really been super sick*. You sound suprised by that..

*Touch wood < I'm supersticious. Stupid, i know.

I've had blood drawn since childhood as part of routine checkups, so that's why I'm surprised. Mind you, vampires are more politically powerful here, so it could just be a subtle way of feeding.
 
As far as I know, Apple events are never broadcast live. I'll be following the live blog on Engadget.
 
why does my body produce ludicrous amounts of snot and saliva whenever I'm sick? it's completely useless, unless you likea billion snotty hankies and sleeping on a pillow full of drool...

:(

Biology/human anatomy never was your strongest subject in school now was it ? :p

Trust me, you are not the only one.
 
^^ Hopefully Engadget was right about the current iPhone 3G dropping to $99, my girlfriend wants one but they're a bit too expensive right now. I've also been hearing about a possible AT&T price drop for it. If she gets to have an iPhone though, I think that means I could be entitled to an HTC Fuze once the new one comes out and the price drops.
 
Now, here is some concrete proof that Google is better than BING

Look at the results that came up when I searched the word Porn. There is no nudity in the picture, but I will still spoiler it because of the search term used.

If you notice, Google provided a link to watch free porn online as the first result while Bing did not.
