    I'm Ill

    I have got the worst flu I have had in about a year, must have caught it at the office where everyone is dropping like flys. Doing nothing today but trying to rest and browsing hexus

    Anyone know any other cool sites to keep me entertained today?

    What we all need is a good cold spell to kill all the airbourne germs. At the moment, the damp, muggy weathers perfect breeding season for all these colds, coughs and sniffles.

    Yeah... All the students have brought all their germs back haven't they I'm sure I've got a cold brewing from Friday night, either that or I'm becoming allergic to my collegue next to me

    If you REALLY want to waste a few hours - grab a friend, log onto www.isketch.net and play for a while - instantly addictive and hours of fun

    Ah yes, curveball.
    The old classic.

    As i said, do it at work, and you won't remain at work for long when you get sacked.

    www.homestarrunner.com - cartoony stuff, if you like it it'll keep you going for a while.
    www.howstuffworks.com - clues in the title, very good site, very intresting
    www.wikipedia.com - You know, still, worth looking around it and other sections, they have mini-books and everything

    I'm, pretty confident that none of you will believe me, but I have not had a cold or any illness of any kind for almost four years now and I have no idea why but I'm not complaining...

    But I don't eat all that healthily, in fact, the most healthy food I eat is brocolli and I've only been eating them for at least a year... I would love to know what I'm doing right, or perhaps I have so many illnesses at once that they all cancel eachother out or something...

    P.S. Give www.angryalien.com a try very very funny in my opinion...
