Sick Of Disorder

...in installations. Faced with the need to use ImageMagick, I wasn't too bothered since I had used it as recently as last December, but oh wait, my computer had conked out in March. The package from the official site didn't work out, and it took a couple hours of Googling and fuming before I discovered the fix - just upgrade the ActivePerl version from 5.8 to 5.10.

This sort of open-ended complication would be rather more stressful if it didn't at least admit a (rather forced) pun on the previous blog entry title. They say that a bun is the lowest form of wheat; still, it's filling and nutritious:


"A bun? Goodness me, we're not buns. Right, Lou?"
"Not at all, I'm wide-eyed with astonishment!"

"Oh hai, didn't see you back there."

Ahem.

On the last post on cheap, we have an affirmation by none other than our local labour chief and NTUC secretary-general: "Cheaper, better and faster is the answer"! This was not taken well by some netizens, with one of them sagely bringing up the Project Triangle, which states that one can only achieve two of the three qualities of Good/Fast/Cheap at any one time. Unfortunately, it looks like there won't be any "we'll pay you ten cents to take another bottle of 100 Plus" offers in international economics, though that did happen in my last badminton session (skipped latest one due to tiredness).

The EPL returns, and this week, with the virtual balance at $664/$600, the pick is:

$100 on Tottenham to beat Portsmouth (at 1.65) - Pompey beat Wolves, but Spurs are a class above
