So I was using my computer last night when I came across acool little widget from Last.fm that displays recently played tracks in a nice list, complete with album covers. I said "why not" and went to open the actual Last.fm application. I got a system error and it killed itself. Confused, I tried again. Same story. I decided to restart, as a lot of computer troubles can be solved by restarting. I restarted and, back in the desktop, I attempted to open last.fm. Failed.
Deleted last fm. reinstalled it and tried. Epic fail. Going to delete it again, I noticed something in the trash. Something called last.fm with this (in grey though) over it. The only other app I'd seen with that was Tomb Raider, because it ran on a classic environment.
Sensing this was the source of my problems, I tried to delete it, but it said it was in use. Restarting again, I deleted it as soon as I got into my account. That worked. By restarting, I'd closed whatever app was using it. Now I reinstalled Last.fm. It opened.
Then I went back into safari to install the widget. Safari wouldn't open. I got the beach ball of death. I restarted it. No joy. I open firefox. That opens fine. I try safari, no joy. I restart the computer. No joy.
I went to bed thinking "ah well, sure at least FF works"
I wake up this morning, try Safari, and it works perfectly!

Boy fed zoo reptiles to crocodile
A seven-year-old boy has been filmed going on the rampage at a popular zoo in Australia, killing rare reptiles and feeding live ones to a crocodile.
Footage from the security cameras at Alice Springs Reptile Centre caught the child smiling as he killed a total of 13 animals.
During his 30-minute spree, he was seen hurling the animals over the security fence into the crocodile enclosure.
Doesn't that just disgust you? This kid can't be right in the head. I mean, who tries to scale a croc enclosure. At 7, you'd think he had more sense, but no, he goes and bludgeons/kills 13 animals. What sort of sickos like that kill animals like that?

Despite the thread title, I don't think this was done out of stupidity. No one could be that stupid, could they?
