    Fact is we share our thoughts in general.

    Would it be pointing out the obvious to say that,as a snooker player,I make a good cricketer?
    I was invited round to a buddy's house who has his own pool table.
    The others were all being really good at it,then "C'mon Puggy,have a go"
    Well,I kept poking the ball with the end of the bat-but the poxy balls just go wherever they like.
    I think in three games [read 'annihilations'] I got a total of three balls to go down.


    Still-I gave the others a LOT of amusement.......


    ....bastids!

    the only fact i find boring is that so many people lie about them, and that there are often too many to even begin to find out the truth behind them instead.
    and yes, i'm sorry, but there's no wonderful on size fits all solution to that.
    almost nothing related to the content broadcast on television can be honestly called factual

    Last night,I spent 3 hours+,trying to figure out how an iphone works.
    Ok,ok-I can hear the tumultuous crescendo of incoming jeers and ribaldry....
    But I've spent the last several years [5 or 6,not sure exactly] with the same N8,running Symbian.
    Never had a single problem,never had malware or adware....[never been on the net,tbh]
    Jeepers-that iphone is SO demanding!
    Put your details here before THIS works,connect to a cloud [youwot?] before THAT works...
    ...and WHY would I want an app that tells me what the weather's like where I am?!?

    My trusty old N8 rings,texts,takes superb photos and videos-and it just keeps going.

    This Apple thingy is going onto ebay...I already KNOW what the weather's like where I am!

    maccafee IS the effing virus. also windoze 8. being told i have to buy things is fraud. whether the law calls it so or not. gimmi back 7, xt or even dos. (now if i could just figure out how to burn linux onto a boot disc so i could replace it with that.)

    I have a camera that they don't make film for anymore.

    No one would buy it. I don't know why but I just can't bring myself to throw it away.

    Maybe someday an archaeologist will dig it up and put it in a museum.

    When I have completed my time machine, I'll go into the future and see if I can find it on display somewhere.

    Justin-wouldn't you be better off going BACK in time and getting 50 rolls of film for it?
    Just THINK how much it'd sell for then!

    RF...that little girl I was teaching guitar to?
    Today, she was back-and THIS time was determined to try playing 12-string [acoustic]
    She sat there on the sofa with a huge 12-string guitar across her lap-and CONCENTRATED.
    Y'know-as I told her mother,one day that youngster is going to be the next Joan Armatrading.
    She wasn't perfect-far from it-but even with her titchy fingers,she was managing three basic chords.
    I am chuffed as a really chuffed thing.
    That little'un REALLY concentrates AND she listens & takes heed.
    Much more so than many of the adults ever do.

    I'm sure I'd make more money if I went forward in time and obtained a camera, then brought it back and slapped my own patent on it.

    But with my luck I'd end up getting bashed over the head by a time-cop for messing with the timeline.

    RF: My neighbor is screaming at his TV again. At least he roots for the home team.

    i think the most boring fact is that people find facts boring.
