Year: 2001

We live in an electronic age, I can email someone across the world in seconds, remotely access my office network with a minimal delay, banks transfer money between accounts with a single-click…except they don’t. Hmmm so when I use Switch it comes STRAIGHT off my account, but if I want to transfer money between different accounts (to remedy a fuckup by the bank!) it takes 10 working days? HOW THE HELL DOES THAT WORK? Do they have to travel to a special computer in the middle of the desert, by foot, to push the correct button? Call me cynical but is it because they can have the interest on it for those 10 days rather than move it out of my account straight away? I feel a nasty letter coming on.

I can sympathise completely with the editorial comment, I’ve been thinking much the same myself. That coupled with the fact that my life isn’t all that interesting (why do you come here?) and I too need to spend more time away from a PC to improve that side of things.

Ohhh and Human Traffic kicked ass (sorry for the Americanism) BIG UP to the Wales club massive!!!! or something….

Friday night – dinner at brother-in-laws – food was excellent, chatted until 3:30 a.m. – top evening!

Saturday – rugby was excellent – Wales game amazing and Scotland actually won!

Sunday – coffee, cheese, crusty bread, a good book. Human Traffic just starting.

How was your weekend?

Zeldman – I feel much better now, I only had 74 emails in my Inbox this morning.

what the?!? is exactly how I feel at the moment! Well said six.
