what makes you a wicked person?

Nothing, but I'm on my way back to work, so the saying fits.

I have that album (and the follow up - The Silver Lining). Runaway Train is one of my favourite songs.

It's that cover, I have heard of them , but I suspect most only know them for Runaway Train.

Prepare to go 'Awww' or dry heave, which ever is your preference:

Cake making... again. Emily's birthday this time. She wanted a ladybird.

Very nice. Did you buy the icing ready made or make it yourself? I find it very hard to make red icing. Natural red food colouring is really bitter and it's hard to get a proper red colour using it without the icing tasting a bit.. nasty.

I bought it from a local shop in a 500g block. Given the amount of colours and E numbers in it though I'm not surprised it's hard to make!

Ready made icing and marzipan makes it so much easier. One day I might progress to making it properly. Though might be crap at actually icing the old fashioned way.

Is anyone else getting the pop up about tapatalk every time they change pages?

This only started today on my iPad, but each and every time I change the page on X404 up comes the little Tapatalk window. I have tried signing out and back in again, clicking both options (cancel and OK), but it keeps popping back up.

Not the worst issue there is, but it is starting to get on my nerves.

No but I am getting lots of mail re changes to pages that have not changed.

Flickr have extended my pro account for three months for free. Ta much.

A sailor was being examined on whether he would make a good ship's captain. He was told to imagine himself on a leeward shore and that there's a very strong wind blowing him on to the rocks. When he was asked what he would do he replied:
"I would go hard to starboard, put on more sail and ride through it."
*Ah yes, but the wind is still blowing you towards the rocks," said the examiner, "what are you going to do?"
"Stay hard to starboard and put on more sail to compensate."
"OK, but despite your efforts, the wind is still blowing you towards the shore, what next?"
"I would go hard to starboard and put on more sail."
Exasperated the examiner says:
"OK, OK, where are you getting this extra sail from every time?"
To which the sailor replied:
"The same place you're getting all of this extra wind."

Christopher Hitchens, I thank you.

I've had several PMs recently and normally get notifications via email. The last 4-5 PMs had to email notification even though I hadn't changed anything. Tonight I suddenly get all of the notifications simultaneously, despite the fact the PMs were from days ago!
