  7. Love him or hate him , he sure hits the nail on the head with this! Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world. Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get used to it! Rule 2 : The world doesn't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself. Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both. Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity. Rule 6 : If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault , so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them. Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room. Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life. Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time. Rule 10 : Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs. Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one. If you agree, pass it on. If you don't agree stick your head in the sand and take a deep breath! If you can read this -Thank a teacher! If you can read this in English thank a soldier!!!

  15. hows does the fasttrac get on pulling that trailer fully loaded , they always seemed to be me a little light back end, might get a lot of wheel spinning on steep forestry tracks?
  16. Fortunately found it at the bottom corner of the bottom field, as it was sitting near the gate to begin with, i can only assume that some kids pull to the top of the hill and let it for some fun, the jockey wheel has marked the grass for a long way down and as there is no gate in the bottom field. We do tend to get some trouble now and then, the kids use the old dirt track for under age drinking. Splitter working ok, i have move it behind the logshed at my house for now, time to strike back , some hen pen and dog chit at their party points coming up. .
  17. A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward. This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward. Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite.. This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant. Make sure you read as well as listen...forward and backward. Please watch to the end. This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old. The contest was titled "u @ 50" by AARP. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant. Take a minute and watch it.. YouTube - Lost Generation

  20. A man enters a bar and orders a drink. The bar has a robot bartender. The robot serves him a pint, and then asks him: "What's your IQ"? The man replies "150" why? The robot proceeds to make conversation about global warming factors, quantum physics, spirituality, biomimicry, environmental issues, nano-technology and theology. The customer is very impressed and thinks, "This is really cool". He decides to test the robot. He leaves the bar, turns around, and comes back in for another pint. Again, the robot serves him the perfect pint and asks him again, "What's your IQ"? The man responds, "about a 100". Immediately the robot starts talking, about football, cricket, golf, supermodels, favourite fast foods, cars, and women's breasts. Really impressed, the man leaves the bar and decides to give the robot one more test. He returns, the robot serves him and asks, "What's your IQ"? The man replies, "Er, 10, I think". And the robot says... real slowly...... So................ u r .. ye ... gaun ....nae .. renew .. yer .. season .. ticket .. f u r ra CELTIC .. again .. next .. year"?

  23. personally within dropping distance of footpaths, i would deadwood or reduce to safe height ie monoliths or fell when necessary...a lot of woods up here have been handed over to local woodland trusts from Fc etc and have had no long term tree management , with all the grants available most have had paths and access made available to joe public with imo less regard to the safety and health of the mature trees
