November 15, 2004 By Al Martine

What is the point in Medicare?

November 14, 2004 By Al Martine

Leave it to us to create a programme for senior citizens that absolutely helps no one except people who generally don’t need it. Medicare A & B help older people who go to the doctor occasionally and drop dead from something sudden. That’s it! It’s appalling and frankly stupid. Don’t think I’m advocating socialism either […]

November 3, 2004 By Al Martine

Just sitting here watching the news. Don’t know which channel, we only have 5 so it is hard to get confused. The great British Wine is “Why did George W Bush win?” The pundits are still getting it wrong. Hell, they seem even more upset than NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN. It’s a bitter wine […]

Desktop Search

October 26, 2004 By Al Martine

Most of my work day is spent looking for files on my computer. I’ve already been playing with Google’s desktop search but I’ve found another one today. Google http://desktop.google.com Copernic Desktop Search http://www.copernic.com/en/products/desktop-search/index.html Oh, this is probably a good time to plug one of my favorite email newsletters, WinXPNews.

Interview

October 6, 2004 By Al Martine

The interview went well and my paper work is being sent in to the great Department of Work and Pensions machine for processing. Now I only have 6-8 weeks before my full inclusion into the British bureaucracy is complete. Ironically, I received a call regarding a letter I wrote DWP three months ago asking if […]
