    Erm, this one.

    Google

    I'll make a confesion here.

    Usually there is something to do with the UK. I sometimes wondered if other less fortunate people who don't dwell here (joke) would get the reference.

    I just assumed that the Google owners were Anglophiles. (Not joking, I did think this)

    So here we are at the next day and I am getting your google screen from yesterday.

    So is the UK still around or do the Langolers still eat yesterday?

      Okay it brings up yours because that is it today. Guess it changed at midnight so we do see the same thing with a lag as you are a day ahead. I'm sure you know that you are an advanced nation where as we are retarded.

        Well, for the first thing it's probably a misspelling. I'm good at that. For the second thing, they are from a Stephen King novel and they eat the past - can't remember how they got loose on some people in the present - time warp or something, but they were eating everything right behind these people and they were trying to keep ahead of them. Wish I could remember how it ended.

          That's Langolier, Sal.

          In the end, they have to fall asleep on the plane to make it back through the "time rip" safely and they do.

            Yep, l saw that one, if l remember correctly they went on a rampage, and where eating up the earth, because of a temporal paradox, or the "person goes back in time and kills his father", how can he kill his father if he doesn't exist", etc.

            You are being a bit harsh on your country, l am sure if Au, went through the black death and Nazi Germany bombing the crap out of us, we might feel a bit burned out?

            From what l have heard, we might be a day ahead, but you guys are probably a year ahead with car designs!

            It is a bit like going ahead a year or two, then we step of the plane!!!

              Self deprecating. We always call our country a dump - until someone else calls it one.

              By the way, what car design do you do? You mean this thing?

                Arrrrrr, just picked it up from, tv science shows, and from what my Mother and brother have said, (they have both been to your neck of the woods).

                My brother also visited the area in England where some of Doctor Who was filmed with the Daleks, (current series) etc.

                But he also got off the beaten path, (tourist wise) and walked past some less than ideal streets. Industrial revolution, etc.

                But that's, ok, every city has seedy areas, Near Melbourne, there are some industrial, high crime rate type areas. I won't drop names, but the petrol stations in these areas, are more like the sort of thing you would see in Harlem, etc.

                All transactions are done behind reinforced glass, etc.
