Stress!!!

With all that is happening in the world I feel a rant. So here it is.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Majorly streesed here at the moment. EXAMs..........................., Money..............................etc.

Ok.

Now for blogging.

Recently I have found the web browser Firfox to be very slow, I just dont understant it.. It has been happening to such an extent I have now returned to using Explorer. Which I abandon 3 years earlier.. But I have notice that bot seem to be freezing and shuting down on a regular bases.. However Firfox is extermely slow.

Some friends have noticed problem with firefox and have move on to using google's Chrome web browser.
I will eventually move on to goolge's one, but for nowI will stick to Internet explorer.

Before you ask, I have the lastest update for both browser, an up to date Anti-virus too, SO I no reasons to suspect computer virus ( hopefully)

Finally, because I have been using Internet Explorer, I have also being using Mircosofts search engine Bing.
It ok but, I often find I have to use goolge for the images search, So Bing isnt as usefull as Google for me at the moment, however I have enjoyed using Bing, only if microsoft had an ad program like adsense..

Microsoft get on it now.

Finally.. Nexus one,,, me like it , I want one.
Ipad.. BOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Will be sticking to my trusted hp Tablet PC for the near future.

Words to "Old Lang Synge"

Well after a very bad attempt to sing Old Lang Syne"

I decided to find  the actually word to this song and here they are.


Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne.

Chorus:

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

Repeat Chorus

And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp!
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll tak a cup o kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

Repeat Chorus

We twa hae run about the braes,
And pou'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit,
Sin' auld lang syne.

Repeat Chorus

We twa hae paidl'd in the burn
Frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin' auld lang syne.

Repeat Chorus

And there's a hand my trusty fere!
And gie's a hand o thine,!
And we'll tak' a right guid-willie waught,
For auld lang syne.

Repeat Chorus...

Or Better still here is a video for youtube with the words, enjoy.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw7daq1PW8o&feature=related
