[scorrie]

So Wifie needs Wi-Fie![lol]

I bought a Computer Magazine that had the headline "Master Your Wi-Fi"

Later that day I saw my missus looking at it in a somewhat puzzled manner. Turned out she thought it had read "Master Your Wife"

Thanks for that metal, never heard of her, have now!!!.

Aye, I remember she released an album back in the late '80s that one or two of the rock/metal magazines raved about, and when I saw her name on one of those torrent sites I frequent, I downloaded a couple of albums and was mightily impressed.

Despite her albums being only Canadian releases, I found one on Amazon and bought it. Her record company would never have got that sale without me downloading it first. Take note, music industry.

'Rats' and 'Racine' are the best two albums, I think all the rest are more poppy and commercial - Celine Dion-esque. To complete the descent into mediocrity, she's now a judge on Canadian Idol. :(
