Mechanical Things
Firstly, an administration thing - ( I sound like an institution) - if you don't normally do so, please leave a tag on the board at the bottom of the page. I like to know who visits my blog. The meter keeps on rising but the tagboard remains stagnant. And if you use a pseudonym, I will probably block you. Pseudonyms are for wusses and spammers.
Anyway, I think I might have an idea of what went wrong with my computer last night. Apparently ccApp.exe failed to initialise. According to processlibrary.com this is a process belonging to Norton Antivirus that is responsible for auto-protection and email-checking. Might explain why I couldn't access msn and emails and things. My computer has been a bit funny lately with just what it chooses to run and how long it runs for.
In other news, the mechanics test was ugh. I know I got several things wrong. There were 4 questions, each worth 10 marks and allocated 15 minutes to do. The whole thing is worth about 15%. Actually it's worth exactly 15%.
While I was writing that I spontaneously decided to start a little competition. I will give 10 cents to the person who finds a typo in my most recent post. Only the first person to tell me about it will get the 10 cents, and there are 10 cents available for every typo. I can't be bothered going back and checking this post for typos so I have no idea if there are any. I hope not. Money is scarce.
There's another of those "about me" emails going around. I got a few and I thought this time that instead of filling it out and fowarding it, I would copy it to my blog and publish it here. Seems a good thing for a blog to have. Feel free to copy it and do it for yourself and reply. Just not on my tagboard.
