I stole this title off Emma.

There is one thing I cannot stand is PEOPLE TALKING IN LECTURES! It's soo annoying, and especially in New Communication Technologies. Bill Gates is a very important person you know, and people eating Burger Rings in front of you whilst talking about God knows what is not very amusing.

What was the name of that documentary that we watched today? It was really interesting, I would like to see more. It was about Alan Turing's discoveries of cryptanalysis. He was pretty eccentric, he rode a bicycle whilst wearing a gas mask. And he rode that bicycle around town like a lunatic. I must hand it to him though, that guy is a genius. I only found out before that he consumed an apple laced with cyanide to end his life. Quite sad really. Turing was also convicted of "acts of gross indecency" after admitting to a sexual relationship with a man. (Thankyou, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Turing) He seemed to lead a tragic life, and it's a shame I do not know more about him.

Also, while Steve was talking about Bill Gates, I had a thought. Bill Gates is one of the richest men in the world. His billions would have to make him the one of the most powerful men in the world. Although these are facts, I don't think I have ever heard of a case where he exploits his power. With money comes power, and with power comes destruction. Gates does not seem to use his money that way. Unlike presidents and others, he's pretty much a saint. Go Bill Gates, you are the grooviest man in computer history. My loathing for Apple PC's has pretty much knocked Steve Jobs out of that list, even though I own an Apple iPod, which I love, and he's pretty much responsible for breathing life into Apple again.

Speaking of Apple, Apple brings back memories. My friend Sean used to wear an Apple T-shirt religiously. Because his school was in casual, I always used to see him at the bus stop in his nerdy Apple get-up, while I was top to toe in tartan. Apple reminds me of my crazy bus stop years, my crazy Victorian- Bendigonian lifestyle. Oh, how I miss high school. Computers remind me of that.
