My own first name Mark, Firstly it is supposed to be spelled Marc as according to my mother I was named after Marc Bolan but they wrote it with a K on the birth certificate. Secondly it just doesn't feel like it suits me, I have no idea what alternative I would pick though. Maybe I just don't feel comfortable being called by my name no matter what it is :)

That's a great example, I was prompted by the Fluke Skywalker stuff going on, But there are plenty of times when people who are famous for something are found to fall short. Then you get this outpouring of grief and disappointment, It happens enough that people should know better really.

I'm 47 and without kids, I was always indifferent to them and decided if I got with somebody who wanted one then it would happen, Once my sisters had kids I lost any remaining interest in the idea, I don't think I would be a good dad as a result of my indifference. My Mrs is very much not interested in them either, Not a good environment for a kid to grow up in I feel. Sometimes people think it's ok to ask why not, For me that question isn't a problem but I can understand how it might be a massive problem for those who wanted them and for whatever reason didn't get any.

I am slightly surprised by a quarter though, Had you asked me before I would have said a few percent tops...

Just Ubuntu. I have tried plenty of others but Ubuntu just seems to tick most boxes for me.

EDIT: I am looking forward to the new Pop! when it comes out, I will surely give it a try, No idea if I will switch then though.

We usually go to a city somewhere and just explore, soak up the culture etc, We usually try to go on an adventure, Like when we went to Iceland in the winter and hired a car to drive round, That was fun, I just like to have a lot to remember and talk about when I return. I try not to visit the same place twice, Though I did go to Moscow twice as the Mrs wanted to go the second time.
