    I can't believe no-one has picked up on this yet. Damnyanks informed me that Boards is in the Irish Times today with some ugly nerdy Geek in the picture.

    Check out the Irish Times - Business This Week - page 4

    Go and buy a paper!

    I still can't get round to reading the article but I'm sure DeV has said a few good words for us!

    Apart from making it sound a bit like I am responsible for everything around here, I thought it was a reasonable piece. At least for once the pic of me doesnt look TOO bad! lol (boy I look *fat* though)

    More grist to the mill...

    You looked mildly Jedi Knightish there DeV! (nice tagline) - oh and the hair didn't seem it's *normal* self I might add :p

    I am intrigued to see how the Debate chamber works out now that it has been mentioned in a National newspaper.

It was a good article I'd say it will attract a bit more traffic.But you do know that george lucas is gonna sue yo ass for the jedi references :P. Oh and why did they blur the links to RvB on your desktop!! oh and the porn.

    One of our servers in Spin is called Mother on the network. See when *I* name servers they get cool names n' sh*t...

    The Red Vs Blue background says "you know what... I fnckin' hate you."

    I was devestated to see there was no mention of the most important person on boards.ie in that article...
    Boardsman, our little mascot! Nice one DeV :-)

    My trial to PS pro has been exceeded hence the large image size.

    Handier than getting it tattooed on your forearm I suppose.

    It is a real "Big Dev is watching YOU" kind of pic though.

    (still reckon that if we've two servers they should be called Pinky and The_Brain. It's a rule. Like Perky, Peebles and BoBrain if you've three. My two non-server machines are labelled Sharkey and George (crimebusters of the C (++) you see)

    oooh no that just tooo much .

    Yes so now we have our offical posterboy
    we will need offical posters :)

    Just think of the money the would be raised when the thousands that now have Dev's pic out of paper stuck over the pc or on the bedroom wall can get a life sized glossy and maybe even signed :D

    Wow next thing you know you'll be asked ( or maybe just you hair ) to read the balls
    in the George ( Sunday Bingo , what were you thinking ...)
