Living Room / OLDIE: Student suspended over use of PHP

« Last post by Josh on August 11, 2006, 11:12 PM »

Topeka, KS - High school sophomore Brett Tyson was suspended today after teachers learned he may be using PHP.

"A teacher overheard him say that he was using PHP, and as part of our Zero-Tolerance policy against drug use, he was immediately suspended. No questions asked," said Principal Clyde Thurlow.   "We're not quite sure what PHP is, but we suspect it may be a derivative of PCP, or maybe a new designer drug like GHB."

Found Deals and Discounts / Re: spring cleaning

« Last post by Josh on August 11, 2006, 09:07 AM »

Got one more goodie for you all. Not sure how many of you this will be helpful too, but, I have a copy of Hobbyware Pattern maker Standard edition 4.05. This program allows you to generate cross stitch patterns using the built in editor, or via image importing. This has come in really handy for my wife (which is why we purchased the pro edition) and I feel anyone who cross stitches will find this extremely useful.

More info at http://www.hobbyware.com

Mouser, if you have a chance, hop on irc. I would like to help you examine any logs you have available to further determine the exact happenings since your hosting company is of no use.
