How versatile is the Irish Times Online?

Grandad June 30th, 2008

What’s all this fanfare about the Irish Times being available on-line?

Big fucking deal.

Irishtimes.com me arse.

Newspapers on the Interweb are utterly useless.  They are functionless.

Can you wrap chips in a monitor?

Can you put a computer screen on the floor to mop up dog piss?

Can you hold a computer across a fireplace to get a sluggish fire going?

Laptops are of little use if you are trying to light a bonfire.

Have you ever tried making a kite out of a server?

Try swatting a wasp with a rolled up Dell.

So…

I’m going to continue buying the good old fashioned newspaper.

I might even read it occasionally.
