Saw one before where the woman had something like 12 different ciders for her guests. They were all absolutely hanging at the next dinner!

She won by a landslide...

[DAMO72]

surely such vista keys exist 'independent of purchase'?

sure you may as well just install one of the cracked versions of windows 7 and solve the problem of vista permanently

Where and how do i get this , and will it work considering my machine is set up for vista ?

Anyone have an opinion on the "new fashion legislation" for the dail which will probably prevent TD's from entering the chamber in Jeans or collarless shirts and insist they wear a suit or jacket with trousers.

Yup.

It says everything we need to know about the assclowns that we the people elect to run out country. We have given up our economic sovereignty, there are maybe a third of the population in real distress, there are urgent imaginative measures that could be driven through to try and get us back on our feet but these fucking morons are making time abd space to pass fucking laws because they don't like having to look at Mick Wallace and Ming Flanagan not wearing a tie.

FFS!

Apparently not, seems to be no-one with rights to show them.

Goes back to my rant a few weeks ago about how between them the GAA/RTE&TV3 make a mess of the TV packages. Like how the fcuk can so many fairly meaningless provincial quarter-finals and semi-finals be part of the packages yet on a key weekend in which the amount of contestants in the football will be slashed from 24 to 16 only one of those knockout games is shown.
I'd blame the TV companies more than the GAA - the GAA probably genuinely believe that the provincial games are massive, but the TV companies should tell them to fuck off and not bid for packages unless the qualifiers are in them.

[kakak1]

I couldn't agree more, Mick Wallace received a mandate from the people of Wexford to represent them & he should be allowed to do so in the attire he chooses.

As someone mentioned & it's very true, our bankers wore shirts, ties & suits & look where we are.

I fcuking hope Mick Wallace wears a multi coloured Jacket/shirt & trousers & Ming Flanagan goes in in a suit in rags ........fuckwits we have running this country

[Guest]

Ming should wear a suit made of hemp

Ive no problem with them having to dress in a certain way when in the dail but it seems a bit childish to bring it in like this (a clear dig at the two lads)

especially at a time when half the country would struggle to buy an auld pair of new socks, never mind a new shiny suit

[The C Kid]

I wouldn't let Ming in my apartment, the way he normally dresses, let alone into the Dail.

He is a muck savage of the highest order, and only in places as backward as Leitrim and Roscommon could he get elected. He wouldn't even get elected in Sligo for fuck sake and we are about as cosmopolitan as baling hay.

People who voted for him should be struck of the registrar.

You should see what the the European CEO of PayPal wears around the office, never have I seen a more casual and relaxed man

Look at Bill gates or Steve Jobs fashion sense during any keynote speech, this country is a joke if that farce rule is being implemented.

Where would i get a cracked version of vista??

[Bless You]

Where would i get a cracked version of vista??

In the second-hand vista shop.
Or oxfam.

You don't want one. Why is the activation screen coming up anyway? Did you try using the code on the windows sticker on the bottom of your laptop? You can probably still phone activate it.

[Zod]

I'd say Zod or DP would be your best bets for that. I could point you in the direction, but wouldn't know exactly what you need.

is there no sticker on the underside of your laptop? I've no access to things at the moment, but I'll drop you a pm on monday with some information if that's ok? if you get sorted in the meantime, grand.

[Zod]

I'd guess it was reimaged 30 days ago with an OEM cd and as such doesn't ask for the product key during install.

Ive put that in several times and it says invalid key. I have rang microsoft and they tried to activate it over the phone and it was coming up as an invalid key on their system also.

If you are getting a cracked version of windows, why would you want vista? Windows 7 looks and feels mostly the same, but is far less resource intensive, and more stable imo.

Yes my m8 done this about a month ago when it crashed and he had to do a system restore , i dont think he had the right disk for a compaq but had one that worked to get me going

How'd u finish last nite Dom?

3rd. Start the FT as a shorty, won a couple of decent pots, then 5 handed got it in with QQ vs KQ vs TT for more than half the chips in play. The shorty KQ hit a K, but I won a big side pot to knock out a player, then refused a deal 4 handed. Then 3 handed got it in with 88 vs KTo, T on the river, and then I got rivered again after getting it in bad but flopping well, so finished 3rd for 535 plus 2 scalps for another 40. They dealt then without playing a hand. Ah well. Might try again tonight.

[KevIRL]

urrrgh too old for this

Is tonight that new 25 quid game Dom or is the 125 game still on?

[sundancekid]

Go to You Tube and search "free windows 7 ultimate"

You'll get it from there

Windows 7 is on all torrent sites such as btjunkie etc

You tube shows you what to do and how to burn the disc

[6starpool]

Is tonight that new 25 quid game Dom or is the 125 game still on?

Both I think unfortunately. If it is the 25 game only I won't be playing it. No interest at that price. The 125 game usually gets between 25-35 I think. Good game, but could do with a few more runners.

Yeah its much better to vote in a Shinner like they did in Sligo.

Brill game with such a low reg fee, wish it got more runners. Even with 500 added last month it got the same low turnout.

Between online and that game tonight will decide later

[hotspur]

My wife will be getting tapped while i'm in the corner sleeping.

13 and 1/2 hours this has been up. Really? No-one?

[ArmaniJeans]

Think England are worth a small bet at 21/10 (11/5 in places) v France in the Womens World Cup 1/4 final at 5 (live on Eurosport and I think BBC2 as well).

Nothing much between them in the rankings and I thought this would be a 6/4,6/4,11/5 game. Cliincher is that the French No1 keeper got sent off in the last group game and her replacement seemed comically bad.

edit.
9/4 Boyles.
Definitely on BBC2, apparently they responded to viewer demand to show it. Take note, GAA.

[DeadParrot]

bummed out know. had booked the afternoon off and now have nothing to do. spent the morning playing the ps3 thinking the game was on at half four get down here and just missed the break.

FFS!

The clothing code is the old school literally trying to reduce the visibility of the newer TDs. You'd think Sean Barrett (TD not Senator) would have a bit more cop on.

Clearly illegal anyway - you can't restrict democratically elected representatives from representing their people based on what they dress - it's not like the Dail is company that is allowed to impose a dress code.

Seems like a Nigerian representative in the Dail would be restricted from wearing their cultural dress (see avatar) under this rule; which just shows how illegal it is.

First two posts are moronic in the extreme. It's a serious place of business and people should accord it the respect it deserves. Mick Wallace might have a mandate but he will do sweet fa for Wexford, same as people for publicity or whatever they call themselves. They'll keep the news stories flowing but a government with that large a majority couldn't give a fuck about independents. Simple as that. I have as much chance of influencing the Dail as Mick Wallace has.

Saying the internal rules committee can't do it's job while the other branches of the Oireachtas do theirs is nonsense. Ministers and departments do the work. The deputies do sweet fuck all.

@HH. The internal procedures of the Dail are non-justiciable and no court can tell the Dail how to regulate itself within obvious limits. Dress code is almost 100% not a justiciable issue

[Teddie]

Lol, yep. It's because they wore shirts, ties and suits that we are were we are and nothing to do with complete incompetncy from the top all the way down. If only those backs wore pinks t-shirts and sandles then we'd still be riding the Celtic tiger.

[Denny Crane]

I agree with the dress code. If you're an elected representative in the national parliament you should dress yourself with at least a modicum of decency.

Pray tell what is respectful about forcing people to wear a particular form of fancy dress?

Sure it does a nice job of demonstrating that those inside the Dail (the courts, Banks or whatever you are having yourself) that they are there to represent and serve the privileged minority whose uniform they wear rather than the attire of the people they are supposed to represent.
As Mick Wallace said, he is there to work and the only time he'd wear a coat when he's working is when its raining.

I'm surprised to hear such utter elitist claptrap from you.
