I can't connect to it. Just get a blank page with the URL in the address block.

Spacegold, there is no connection problem here. I don't know what to say. Apparently techgranny had no problems either.

Thanks, whs. Problem must have been temporary. "We live in an amazing, amazing world, and it's wasted on the crappiest generation of spoiled idiots." I wish I thought of that line. Good clip.

That is one of the best videos I've seen in a while.
Even though I'm very much one for the new technology rather than the old (being in a modern generation, you know....) That was excellent. Funny too :D

Yes that is funny. That sad thing is it's true, some days I'll be the person with a Cell Phone complaining about it being slow or dropping calls when just about 10 years ago we only had phones that were just "Phones" not Cameraphones, Internetphones, Smartphones, Slim Phones, etc.
In fact I didn't even get a Cell Phone at all until I was around 14 and now many parents are giving their 7 year olds Cell Phones. Not to mention that my parents didn't even have Cell Phones when they were kids.
It's a crazy world we live in :)

I wish they had never invented cell phones. They are the greatest pain in the neck. I am definitely sure that I will never have one.

I tried watching this clip, but the resolution was too low so the picture was fuzzy and it had to rebuffer a couple of times and the audio level was inconsistent. It should be in high definition with surround sound and it should stream without ever pausing to rebuffer.

So, what was it about? :-)

Hmm, funny that some of you guys have trouble with the video, but as long as the sound works, you should get the essence of the story. I just checked it here and it worked fine.

I have responded to an above comment about Cell Phones in my new topic Annoying Telephone usage in the current generation* to avoid straying far off the topic of this post (A funny video).

* It's a less then exciting name for a new topic but it's the best I could think of at the moment.

Does anybody remember the "milkman"? We had our conveniences when we were young. Nowadays kids have to get in their parent purchased BMW to GO GET milk. I had it delivered to our door in the morning! So There! And it was cheap!

lol@ odeho, I've still got one! I also suggested to my 8 year old nephew recently that we went to the park to play football, since he was sitting playing Fifa on the Playstation, and he was quite amazed to realise people actually get off their backsides occasionally and run around to enjoy themselves. Eventually, with much grumbling about the cold (Scotland in February, not too warm...), and me talking about the good old days (walked 300 miles to school in barbed wire shoes, that sort of thing) I was determined to give him a runabout to get those endorphins going. I kicked the ball, a la Ronaldinho, pulled a muscle in my groin, swore a lot, and had to go home again! Technology definetly has its advantages...
