Been using docky for almost a week. But it didn't work much! Kept crashing half the times. So my verdict is it's not stable enough. Or it doesn't like KDE. What now? I'm sticking with AWN which by the way becomes the most used program by me on regular basis - except Need for Speed Most Wanted .

Source: www.brainyquotes.com Bullfighting is the only art in which the artist is in danger of death and in which the degree of brilliance in the performance is left to the fighter's honor. Ernest Hemingway I shouldn't be saying this - high treason, really - but I sometimes wonder if Americans aren't fooled by our accent into detecting brilliance that may not really be there. Stephen Fry I'd rather wear jewels in my hair than anywhere else. The face should have the advantage of this brilliance. Hedy Lamarr If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull. W. C. Fields Men are like the stars; some generate their own light while others reflect the brilliance they receive. Jose Marti Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs, rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys, advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm, retreating to the corner of arm and knee, eager to be reassured, taking pleasure in the fragrant ...

Two weeks ago was my forty-fifth birthday, and I wasn't feeling too hot that morning anyway.

I thought, Well, that's wives for you. Maybe the children will remember. The children came in to breakfast and didn't say a word. When I started to the office I was feeling pretty low and despondent. As I walked into my office, my secretary, Janet, said, Good morning boss, Happy Birthday! So I felt a little better; someone had remembered. I worked until noon. Then Janet knocked on my door and said, You know, it's such a beautiful day outside and it's your birthday, let's go to lunch, just you and me. I said, that's the best thing I've heard all day. Let's go. We went to lunch. We didn't go where we normally go; We went out into the country to a little private pla...
