I really want to freshen up this blog site. Do something with a little pazzazz. I’m using this theme just to try it out really. The way this site is set out makes it really easy to customise (mostly thanks to WordPress itself).
So if you’re bored, have a look at some of the themes available for a WordPress blog (latest version) and post them here. All suggestions gratefully received.

So I’ve been looking around recently and the number of things similar to Facebook or twitter stating up seems unending. Apparently you can get a degree in “social networking” (read messing about on Facebook) as it represents the future of communication. Oh dear.

Okay so I bought a new reservoir to mount on the top of my case figuring that this would then banish any and all bubbles in the system to that spot. I did my research and looked around the market. Now first off I already knew about the EK multioption reservoirs…

Okay the last instalment was me figuring that my motherboard was the source of the problem (had to be the motherboard right? Screwy BIOS = motherboard dead…). Well I got myself a nice Gigabyte EP45-UD3 (I do kinda wish I’d got the RAID version but I’d promised to keep the cost down and this one was a decent price and has Gigabyte RAID on it which should work…. right?) and did the open case surgery beginning Thursday evening of last week.

Many people end up in arguments with me, most tell me I’m an argumentative person… I’m always left wondering why.
