SPECIAL FREEBIE!
Ok, this is going to require a tiny little explaination, however, I do believe it is quite fantastic.  So, on last week's QI, Stephen Fry was explaining the maximum number of times you can fold a piece of paper, and the girl who found that the maximum was 12.  However, what you need are length and thickness.  Alan Davies pounced on this and said it was going to be a ringtone.  Stephen Fry's reply was "Damn you all!"  Alan Davies replied that this would be the text tone.  For those doubting Thomases amongst us, the clip is here:

So how does this lead to a freebie?  Well, I can, thanks to the people at qiringtone.webs.com, offer you the ringtone and text tone!  Not quite sure about having "What you need, are length and thickness" as a ringtone, but "Damn you all!" as a text tone?  For sure!

So, the ringtone is here: http://qiringtone.webs.com/Length_and_Thickness.m4a
And the text tone is here: http://qiringtone.webs.com/Damn_You_All.m4a

Get them before, as Stephen Fry recently said on Twitter "The BBC get all pissy about content which belongs to them."

So tonight has been, well, interesting.  The Bombshell is hyperactive for some reason, The Scotsman is back and as whingey as ever.  And is giving me his usual brand of "I spoke therefore I am right" philosophy.  Prime example was on poker.  Now, I feel that having won £200 and £250 respectively on the last two sessions I played, that my strategy is sound.  Apparently, according to him, it is flawed.  He said to me that I should raise every hand, because I would win more pots.  Perhaps, but then I would also lose more money in the long run.  His view is distorted as his only experience is televised poker. 

He has also been slating Miss C.  So far his names for her have been Fatty, Fatty Boom Booms, Fat B*tch, The Thing, That Woman, and, quite astoundingly - F*cking Pregnant Fat F*cking B*tch Wh*re.  And then he wonders why people label him as being ignorant.  I cannot begin to imagine why that would be.

And then tomorrow I am also going to Southampton again.  The idea of getting a PS3 has gone out the window, as despite having 8 3ghz processors, apparently Linux runs very slowly on it.  Shame, because that was one reason I wanted it.  However, I might see if they still have their £190 eee PC or I might go for a £80 PSP.  I am slightly more tempted by the PSP, as installing Linux is a challange, makes for a unique device to show off at the group, and makes for an extremely portable hacking/development/internet/poker platform.

We also have a winner for our "Who Sent Slaphead A Sexy Card?" investigation.  I say winner, the culprit confessed.  It was The Scotsman!  For those not in the know, Slaphead got a card with "Merry Christmas sexy, from you know who" as part of his Secret Santa present.  His wife went ballistic and didn't speak to him for the whole of Christmas. 

But this is par for the course for night shift.  You see, we are fond of practical jokes.  For example, The Bombshell asked for a cup of tea, so I made him one.  With 10 slugs of lemon juice in it.  About twice as lemony as he likes his.  Well, it is winter.  He needs to keep his vitamin C levels topped up.
