Sure maam you may be presumptuous,
those screws that are not missing will surely be loose.
I am all for po.r.n.
We've been trying to please our rescued natives for many a year. Please
donate.
What is Trident targetting?

Erm, rather a lot of Government secrets on computers, hard disks, etc
have gone missing lately... "Trident" are things that get fired out of
submarines and "Trident targetting" is the info on the list of their
targets..

Which isn't exactly secret information anyway - everyone knows that
Brown has them aimed at his back bench at the HoC. Apart from one aimed
at his left foot... :)

I`m actually very good with removable drives - these came out the box and
have been on a desk ever since, with nice big gaps to allow for plenty of
air flow. The only portable drive I have that gets moved is a 60 gig USB
bus powered drive that I use to back up my files, and leave in a work locker
to ensure its safety. :-)
