Docked at Cape Town. Lost your bracelet.

• The age distribution is particularly frightening, given that I'm thirty-seven.

• Any Sapphire & Steel fans still out there?

• The article is tedious, but this is the best headline ever.

In a stroke of genius, this afternoon I lost a twenty pound note, and this evening I lost MY WHOLE PACK OF CARDS. Just got off the phone from cancelling everything. redcountess thinks I'm a complete muppet. She is, of course, correct.

Nice evening down the Dev with arkady and hawkeviper, though. Hi to valkyriekaren, wechsler and flavius_m.

I have a dream. It involves getting a Mac G5 and doing a CGI remake of Plan 9 From Outer Space. (Where to find the 3D data set for a 1950s Cadillac hubcap?) Or a thirty-second Stick Figure Theatre version.

Netscape 7.2's memory use is still at 350 or so megabytes, but it's not actually showing any sign of flinching under load.

You *are* a muppet.

Oh dear.

[vampwillow]

On the first, *you* should worry? :: me meeps! ::
On the second, yes
On the third, indeed, quite amusing ;-)

Apparently, LJ is the place to troll for girls half our age...

There seems to be a pattern emerging..... in Australia you temporarily lost your passport....n ow you've lost your bank cards.... I'm not sure where this pattern is going, but in retrospect, sewing important things to your arse is looking like a good option.

Not a fan of S&S exactly but enjoyed some episodes we rented on dvd recently, missed them the first time around but a good friend raved about them. Weird, but good.

I loved Saphire and Steel.
Obviously.

You're frightened...try 51!

Pretty graphic curve in that stats page...

Teenage Zombie Armies from Outer Space?

I wonder why Russia, Germany and the Philippines are relatively high up the list but France, Italy and Spain fail to even make the top ten. I've long had the impression of France being in its own little world, internet-wise (accurate or otherwise, but it's consistent here); but Italy usually seems pretty well represented in online contexts IME.

Actually, I'd contend that it's the second-best headline ever, after "zombies defeat robot Jesus" (http://www.dehavilland.co.uk/webhost.asp?wci=default&wcp=EntertainmentStoryPage&ItemID=2259231&ServiceID=8&filterid=345221&searchid=234672&category=1).

I concede the point!

Don't sweat the statistics: these are only for the number of people who actually bother to list their ages. Now, what worries me is the insignificant number of people who actually pay for their LJ service: 98 percent of LJ users are using free accounts? Sheesh.

[reddragdiva]

That appears to be all accounts, not just active accounts. Although even then the numbers are pretty pathetic.

HEY, FREEBIE USERS! IT COSTS BUGGER-ALL!

[damerell.livejournal.com]

They offer it for free. If it gives what you want at that price...

Diva, Diva, Diva.... *shakes head*

Do you remember how we first met? Think back all those years.

You don't put things in your pocket properly, do you? You lose money, passports, credit cards etc on a regular basis.

This is curable. Put things in secure pockets. Zip 'em up if you're in leather jacket.

Or carry a handbag. ;-)
