    “it’s crap when you’re Ruth”

    I wonder what Ruth Ellison has to say about that…? ;)

    I think they were referring to suddenly appearing as a default naked female inside SecondLife – not Ruth Elisons our well known and loved Canberra IA guru :)

    Phew, and there I was thinking that perhaps it really is crap being Ruth. ;)

    I better log back into Second Life this weekend and check my avatar…..

    I think you’ll quite like FreeRice at http://www.freerice.com/
    Free Rice is simple, doesn’t require you to login and does three good things: Improves English vocab; Is Fun (in a computery addictive sort of way); Helps with world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.
