From the awesome Reuters news service (an obvious website to be checking out every so often):
A 50-year-old Zambian man has hanged himself after his wife found him having sex with a hen, police said Friday.
The woman caught him in the act when she rushed into their house to investigate a noise.

Well, actually it’s well past time. Instant Messaging has all the earmarks to be the communications of the future, and it royally stinks.
Problems today:

Is it just me, or does RedHat’s Bugzilla Install put Mozilla’s to shame? The theme is real nice and easy on the eyes. Really, really like it.
Hopefully Mozilla’s next bugzilla upgrade will include some theming. Would be real nice.
It’s just great looking. Really really like it.
This is the best thing I’ve heard in ages:

I’ve started working for the summer, hence it’s been a strange/busy week, and very silent here.
Things will pick up, it’s starting to get quite interesting around here. Very interesting. [evil laugh /]
Busy is a good thing I guess.

MySQL, Second Edition
Programming PHP
PHP Cookbook
Web Database Applications with PHP & MySQL
