Wonder if I'll ever actually use it for real?

QotD: My Life In Technicolor

If you could pick a cartoon world to live in, which would it be? Why?
Submitted by Scio, Scio.

Though I love the world of 'Looney Toons', I think that'd be a bit painful. It's true that nobody ever dies, but that steamroller... .ouch!

The Simpsons... now, yellow... nah

South Park. I'd go postal.

Powder Puff Girls... let's not go there.

Peanuts. I'd slap Charlie Brown.

I think, it'd have to be 'Family Guy'. A world with talking dogs and the foxy Lois.... who am I kidding? She'd never leave Peter.

Vox to LJ Link

nobody@vox.com(Murky) — Thu, 16 Nov 2006 20:46:55 +0000

So, sixapart have finally got around to linking VOX to Livejournal. It's a shame that the link only seems to be one way, my LJ friends can't comment on my Vox post. Anyone want a Vox invite?

What song makes you rock the karaoke mic?
Submitted by Ann.

Almost anything, depending on alcohol levels.

I like karaoke, a lot....

QotD: All My Computers

nobody@vox.com(Murky) — Tue, 24 Oct 2006 11:29:16 +0100

How many computers do you have in your house?
Submitted by Foomper.

On my desk, I have two, the PC and a mac ibook running Ubuntu Linux.

There is a broken one just over *there* (I broke it) - it used to be my firewall.

There's a fourth which appears in the house from time to time, a laptop, though it's now at work and doesn't count.

QotD: Speak To Me In...

nobody@vox.com(Murky) — Wed, 13 Sep 2006 19:02:39 +0100

How many languages can you speak? Which languages can you read or understand?

Fluently: One - English

I have modest French (it should be better)

I have a few words of Catalan (though I'd need to remind myself), Spanish, Italian, German and Bengali.

Of these, the one I'd really like to be fluent in is Bengali, but I'd love to be fluent in any second language!

QotD: Better on the Big Screen

nobody@vox.com(Murky) — Tue, 12 Sep 2006 17:07:27 +0100

If you could watch any movie on the big screen right at this moment, what would it be?

Ice Cold in Alex.

Probably the best movie in the world (whoops, that's Heineken, but people who know the film will get the reference, I hope).

QotD: Nice Save

nobody@vox.com(Murky) — Sun, 10 Sep 2006 12:01:59 +0100

If you could only save one thing in a house fire (thing, not person), what would it be and why?
Submitted by donnunn.

Easy...

Given that all my important photos are on flickr, (except my wedding photos, and I have the negs in a drawer at work), given that books and CDs can be replaced, and all that jazz.... given that my cats can run, and if they don't run I'd never be able to grab them from their hideyholes.... it'd have to be my diary (preferably the block of diaries).
