Random Facts XXVII - New Year's Edition

they were copying the first one where the acting was also crap

 

oh well they did a great job then

 

Fact- The movie 'No Country for Old Men' (also starring Josh Brolin) got its name from a Willaim Butler Yeats poem;

Sailing to Byzantium

THAT is no country for old men. The young
In one another's arms, birds in the trees
- Those dying generations - at their song,
The salmon-falls, the mackerel-crowded seas,
Fish, flesh, or fowl, commend all summer long
Whatever is begotten, born, and dies.
Caught in that sensual music all neglect
Monuments of unageing intellect.

An aged man is but a paltry thing,
A tattered coat upon a stick, unless
Soul clap its hands and sing, and louder sing
For every tatter in its mortal dress,
Nor is there singing school but studying
Monuments of its own magnificence;
And therefore I have sailed the seas and come
To the holy city of Byzantium.

O sages standing in God's holy fire
As in the gold mosaic of a wall,
Come from the holy fire, perne in a gyre,
And be the singing-masters of my soul.
Consume my heart away; sick with desire
And fastened to a dying animal
It knows not what it is; and gather me
Into the artifice of eternity.

Once out of nature I shall never take
My bodily form from any natural thing,
But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make
Of hammered gold and gold enamelling
To keep a drowsy Emperor awake;
Or set upon a golden bough to sing
To lords and ladies of Byzantium
Of what is past, or passing, or to come.

I've got two assignments in Monday, I finished both...

But then my Tiny dog attempted to jump on the table, knocked over a coffee cup and the little bit left went on my laptop, now it's not working.

All my work was on that computer... The stupid bastard dog. I'm screwed.

Jury duty was postponed to the end of the month...

When getting any electronics wet, the first thing you do is disconnect all sources of power to it and let it dry for a day or so...

Chances are, if there wasn't power (including battery) going through it at the time, it will be fine...

If there was power going through it at the time, or you plugged it in before it was dry, you likely fried something...

You should be able to pull your hard-drive and put it in another computer.

However even if you can't, you can still take it in and get the info on your hard-drive recovered, or at least there is a really good possibility of it.
