You know in every debate. 50% are for and 50% against. That's the world.

Poker is the new internet sensation with over $1m a minute being staked around the world.

I love Google.

IAmOne, go to Pokerstars and learn the fastest growing game of
Texas Hold-em.....Free. It'll have insight to whatever Q you may have.
Good luck and it's always more fun when you have an endless bank account.

I was reading some articles (off of Degsy's 2nd link) and I happened to find this:

Google just got better in my eyes.

**Snurfen** · #11 January 21st, 2006, 06:23 PM

Oh no..........

You should dig into that Pi and get the story.

Degsy, thanks for finaly getting me to watch one of those Beeb stored progs. I listen to Phill Jupitas breakfast show regularly like that (mainly cos I think Phil Wilding is Mr Bean) but never actually watched a prog.

Stopped watching the Money Prog when Val Singleton left (queue soliloquey about VS and Susan Stranks from Dammit).

*Edit* PS, thought the show was excellent. Stimulated a lot of discussion in work last week when it was aired.

What makes you think that swapping one monopoly for another would make any difference?

bigfatguy6969 · #14 January 21st, 2006, 09:05 PM

Meh, google is alright. Some of it features are jsut retarded though

Today google search engines, tomorrow google earth
MUWAH HAH HAH HA HAAAAAAAAAA

Well at least their motto is "Do no evil" (think they watched Bill & Ted too much in college) as opposed to MS's ethos of "put everyone else out of business.

Empires are cyclical; Mesopatamia, Greece, Rome, Austro-Hungarian,France, Britain, America - we've all taken our turns at the top of the pile, but it never lasts for ever.
