Obviously awaiting the delicious moment in about 2 years when he has his first cabinet reshuffle. And sacks the whiny streak of Cork piss! Ha!
Anyway; how did you vote in the SF Northern leadership election? Oh yeah - nobody got a vote in that one. How did you feel about that?"We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Revenue and their harry potteresque 'inspector of taxes' have been hounding me to fill out my tax return as they think I owe them money, and taking swipes at my hillary Clinton level email scandal for sending them an 'unsecure' email with my p60 in it. Now they owe me 200 euro. Bit of a beat as it shows how little work my linkedfinance has been doing for me

I hadn't really come across Corbyn before this week, just blindly accepted the very commonly expressed view in the media that he was a clown, total liability, etc... Have watched him speak in two live debates this week and have been really impressed. Much more assured than May, who suffers from a critical weakness when it comes to elections - she seems like a complete heartless bitch.
Funny that in Ireland I'm a Fine Gael/Labour voter (on boards.ie they'd have you believe that FG are some kind of hard right party), whereas if I were in the UK I'd be voting Labour and obviously the Dems in the US. The reality is the FG are left of centre when compared to most parties worldwide surely!

Run in with an ol biddy on the golf course. Snap hooked a drive onto her fairway. Excuse me we are playing this hole . Yes I know Mary but you haven't even reached your ball yet . You should wait she said. Listen missus your 50 yard monster drive is still up there and you will be past me when I'm shooting. What is the problem. ?
Well you shouldn't be on this fairway. Took my shot , unusually a good shot to the fringe. Nice recovery her friend said. I smiled and said I wasn't sick. Meanwhile my morto friend was waiting patiently to die. I was hot.

Im very confused watching Twin Peaks, i would probably be worried if i understood it.
One of the best scenes this year though has to be in episode 4, "Wally", i must have watched it 4 or 5 times at this stage, its not a spoiler or anything but im still not sure what i was watching !This too shall pass.

Fair play Leo some man..But whats all the fuss about?Black leader, female leader...New leader of Fine Gael, new leader of Fine Fail, same difference...they could be a former Catholic priest that is now a converted gay transgender Libyan buddist and it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference. Small country...
Usual "parish" politics. Expect Dublin West, particularly Castleknock to get reap the benefits. Show me how wrong ill be in a couple of months. .. Move along now get a mortgage nothing to see here...Jayzus, Sheila! I forgot me feckin' trousers

Do I cash out at 20x stake or hold on?

Main house moving day yesterday. Got off to an awful start. I was taking a half day but got stuck in work for an extra couple of hours, and the sky installer lad broke our telly. Mitchell was near the middle of the floor for various reasons, and my wife asked him to move it to the plug socket, and he grabbed in with one hand by the top of the screen and tried to lift it up. It happened too quickly for my wife to tell him to stop being a twat, and when she turned on the telly and saw lines across and up and down the screen as well as a thumb sized area not working, he pretty much said that he didn't do it at first.
He seemed to accept that we were going to report it to sky anyhow and he gave details of who to call, etc, and a sky person calling on Tuesday to have a look. Hopefully get a decent new telly or relevant funds out of it, but I'm sure they'll try to pawn a smaller TV off on us at best.
The rest of the day was much more productive though, but a hard slog.

Lions were gash.
Sexton, Best and Henderson all had very off days from an Irish perspective.
Teo was good. Moriarty and Faletau good too.
Was really hoping for a last gasp winner from the Barbarians tbh.
Hope it was mostly jet-lag based malaise, because it really was very poor from a lot of them.

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View Post100% this. History repeatedly tells us that first to market virtually always beats 'technically better, but later'. VHS/Betamax, and something about electricity (AC vs DC?) being famous examples. Albeit not famous enough for me to remember either example specifically. Ergo, if going to bet, then bet on bitcoin.
* Gold being another. An imperfect dodgy hedge that has stuck it out against much better options because it was the first hedge in town
As well how important is first mover advantage when there's no real physical infrastructure or sunk costs involved. Switching coin is relatively effortless and
Bitcoin's market share is continuously declining.
I think history shows that the easier to use and better marketed product tends to win out. Whoever makes a coin that is desirable to more than nerds, libertarians and drug dealers wins imo.Last edited by Denny Crane; 03-06-17, 11:35.

I also have to move the last few bits from old apartment (light and small mostly), paint a room and ensuite and clean the place as well as put away all the stuff we moved, and then I'm done. That simple. Should hopefully have most of it all done by Monday, the most painful bit is over now.
