 I have used google for many years and I liked it very much.This morning google came up with a background picture (ugly!).I really don't wanted a background picture and there was a link to change the background  .But to change the background you have to become a registered user I don't need that shit.It is time to say good bye...
No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die. |

But thats a really weird background  I always tend to use blackle which is claimed to be energy saving but I dont know how  Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless. PBUH |

They can do what they want!I am away from (big brother is watching you)google.I never have signed in and don't want to do it now.It's a cheap trick to get anonymous users to go and get registered because only then it is possible to change the background!

| It was all rather ill-judged, wasn't it? Perhaps Marissa's having a bit of a mid-life crisis what with recently turning 35! |
