German Enigma Cipher Machine from WWII on eBay

First debuting in 1918, the portable Enigma encryption machine was picked up by the Germans in WWII to encipher military radio messages & hide them from the Allied codebreakers' ears.

Not many of these babies are still in existence today, however if you've got a spare $30,000 AUD in your pocket, you may just be able to pick yourself up an original when the hammer comes down on this incredible eBay one-off in a few days.

Considering, however, that the price has jumped another few thousand during the typing of this post alone, you may, instead, wish to build your own.

And she's back!

Howdy, long time, no post.

Today I have been getting rid of the colourful (for want of a better word) spam that have been accruing in the comments for my most recent post.. actually, "recent" really ain't the way to describe a piece of writing from 6 mths ago. Tough; it is (well, it was) the most recent.

I was (apparently) scoring well with Yahoo Search for "cum shots". Ha!! How disappointing for the horny dicks who made it here, only to discover I write about computers, and testing, and other non-naked ambitions.

Most amusing.
