If...

Staff members can't win GAD, why has brad@specialreserve won 1?

Everybody dislikes Shaneo, why do I not?

State of Emergency was meant to come out last Friday, why didn't it?

Half term is meant to be a relaxing holiday, why do we have homework?

I apparently do a 'good job' for my paper round, why am I told I only have 1 week left?

Men are from Omicron Persei 7, why are women from Omicron Persei 9?

This is the 'imformation superhighway', why are there no roadsigns?

I am 'gay' (apparently), why am I straight?

Special Reserve can afford to be such good value, why can no other shops have such low prices?

Amazon is nearing bankruptcy, why is SR booming?

You gotta do what you gotta do, why do I don't?

The GeForce 3 titanium series are new top-of-the-range graphics cards, why is the GeForce 4 out?

I get a 1.7ghz PC, will it run Civilization at its proper speed? Or Whacky Wheels? Or Cosmo? Or Monster Bash?

The PS2 can process 70 million polygons per second (snigger), why does it only currently do about 4 million?

Shaneo is actually banned, why?

If not...

Then I'm just wondering why suddenly people have decided to write loads of lists. Oh well, pukka mate.

Fair Dinkum...

It's good to ask questions. If people didn't ask questions and doubt things they were told, we would be nothing more than biological robots roaming the planet like sleepwalkers.

I will attempt to anser some of these:

> Staff members can't win GAD, why has brad@specialreserve won 1?

Dunno

> Everybody dislikes Shaneo, why do I not?

You haven't been here long enough

> State of Emergency was meant to come out last Friday, why didn't it?

That's life

> Half term is meant to be a relaxing holiday, why do we have homework?

Because teachers think they should give you homework when the truth is they don't really want to mark it anyway. The head tells them to, but on the other hand he doesn't have to mark them...

> I apparently do a 'good job' for my paper round, why am I told I only
> have 1 week left?

Because they can't tell you you're crap then fire you.

> Men are from Omicron Persei 7, why are women from Omicron Persei 9?

Because Omicron Persei 7 is nearer the sun.

> This is the 'imformation superhighway', why are there no roadsigns?

There are, they're just not signposted too well.

> I am 'gay' (apparently), why am I straight?

That's for you to decide

> Special Reserve can afford to be such good value, why can no other
> shops have such low prices?

Because SR employ slave labour. Simple. (;-))

> Amazon is nearing bankruptcy, why is SR booming?

See above, but also because SR exists in the real world

> You gotta do what you gotta do, why do I don't?

Because you can't be bothered, obviously ;-).

> The GeForce 3 titanium series are new top-of-the-range graphics
> cards, why is the GeForce 4 out?

It's not out, that's why the GeForce Ti500 is top of the range.

> I get a 1.7ghz PC, will it run Civilization at its proper speed? Or
> Whacky Wheels? Or Cosmo? Or Monster Bash?

Very probably.

> The PS2 can process 70 million polygons per second (snigger), why
> does it only currently do about 4 million?

Well, it actually does about 20 million and rising, but the reason is that the 75 million figure is just raw polygons without any lighting, textures, physics, or... game. The same applies to the Xbox's (168?) million figure. The true figure is much lower than that.

> Shaneo is actually banned, why?

Do you want a list?

> If not...

Because the true answer to "Why is Shaneo banned" requires a 3000 word essay.

Another question, in that case:

Tomorrow, do I -

A) Stay home, do some Statistics coursework and have a boring time

B) Ring up mates and go into town or something, leaving coursework for next Sunday evening ;-)

Need advice guys (and gals)...
