It works! I'm seeing an ad for Chocolate fountain hire, and another for chocolate dessert recipes (plus an ebook ad).

chocolate truffles would be pleasant. Or chocolate cake, chocolate sauce, chocolate mousse, chocolate ice-cream, or even plain chocolate.

damned !!!! still those stupid database tools on top, and on the bottom i've got a row of thoroughly inedible text ads. one of those at least is a bit surreal and intriguing :

"A Tudor Watch Lives
Pulsates. Obsesses.
www.tudorwatch.com"

it is random, i have to say that much. i had no idea watches ever obsessed. i suppose it's probably some kind of tic. or maybe a TOC.

Kirk: Kirk to Engineering.
Scotty: Engineering reporting.
Kirk: Mr Scott, why does my star ship seem so unsafe the minute we enter battle?
Scotty: Isn'nt obvious Captain?
Kirk: Humor me Mr Scott.
Scotty: So the ship can'not fall into enemy hands!
Kirk: ...
Kirk: Scotty, have you been hitting the Scotch again?
Scotty: Nay but Im' serious captain!
Kirk: Explain?
Scotty: Well Starfleet was worried that a ship could lose from loss of life support or'a something before it was rendered totally inoperable. So they came up with an ingenious solution: self demolishing star ships!
McCoy: That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard!
Kirk: Quiet bones.
Kirk: But Mr Scott, what if we run into a dangerous nebula?
Scotty: You cann'ot be serious Captain. Everybody knows nebulae aren'nt that dense!
Kirk: ...


Kirk: Okay, but what if we hit the great barrier at the edge of the galaxy?
Scotty: Why would there be a barrier at the edge of the galaxy?
Kirk: How about the one at the center ot the galaxy?
Scotty: That does'nt make any more sense than the one at the edge of the galaxy. And besides, traveling to the center of our galaxy would take decades at warp anyway. You cannat violate the continuity of the series captain!
Kirk: The what?
Scotty: Never mind.

That panda is scary. I mean it looks like it's charging after you on its stubby panda legs with a devilish grin on its giant panda face. Ready to give you a giant panda death hug, or maybe just **** you with its giant panda... you know...

Oh, and it's still stuck on the s h o p p i n g ad for me.

Not me. Maybe they see your IP address (i.e., they, er, happen to know your rather initimate habits with pizza).

Hmmm. I get an ad for chocolate cake recipes at the top and (appropriately, I suppose) one for dieting at the bottom!

I always get the same ads, too. Always about that sinister kid who runs around with Ron and Hermione. (I'm trying to avoid mentioning you know who.)
