Perhaps you need to go down to your local Time Machine store and see if they have any equipment that you could buy that would slow down time for you.

I have thought for as long as I can remember that Fantasia was the first feature length Disney movie!!!! Or maybe it was just the first that included Mickey. Either way the quiz was a fix, a FIX I TELL YA. Strangely enough I found myself quite amused as I read and thought that a quiz was a good idea.<br><br>Just to test the waters as it were, here is a little something that should separate the men from the boys (please ignore that lamentable sexist remark J-Ho):<br><br>Q1) Theoretically, computational and data grids are the computing paradigm of choice for what?<br><br>Ok that was a given, let's see what else I can think of (several hours later)<br><br>Q2) What precisely is the guitar that Tom uses from blink182?<br><br>Q3) Explain regression analysis (A level standard will do people don't bother with none of that degree stuff).<br><br>Q4) Who's law stated that about 35Kbps was the theoretical limit for modem based internet connection due to noise on the telephone circuits?<br><br>Ok one more people and if any of you manages to answer all five questions without searching for the answers any where else other than your own grey matter in your skull I will be astounded and for ever humbled.<br><br>Q5) What was the first song ever recorded in the UK?<br><br>Now I don't know the answer to that one (used to) and so have to go look it up. Good luck trying to answer these, if anyone bothers that is.<br>

Completly correct... everyone goto the unofficial blink 182 web site to see the copy/paste. Sorry Nablo but you would have to be some complete blink 182 genious and freak to know that much offhand.. link will follow shortly.

Yeah thanks for posting Nablo. However the link for any blink182 fans or people wishing to lambast Nablo is http://www.cb182.com/bios.phtml. Watch out for those pop-up banners though, can be a real nasty.<br><br>Edit: Almost forogt. 1 point to Nablo, 1/2 point deducted though for shamefull pop-quiz behaviour.
