World of Warcraft.
I bought an extra Gig of Ram today - I thought I already had a gigabyte in my PC, but I only had 512 Mb. Upping the Ram makes World of Warcraft run smoothly, even in Ironforge, a busy city where I get crappy FPS.
I’ve also been able to increase some of the detail settings without too noticeable dip in performance.
But by far the best outcome is that I can switch between WoW and Firefox without having to wait ten or twenty seconds for it to catch up…

Myths and Legends.
Every Australian Child knows the story about Ned Kelly. The famous outlaw was captured while wearing body armour made from old farm equipment, and is an iconic figure in Australian history.
I came across a picture today, that was a replica of the banners proclaiming his execution. I’ll quote the last part of the text:
His last words before he was executed were,
“I guess it has come to this.”
And shortly after
“Such is life”
Apparently, he was still able to talk after being executed…
