[ILUG] [OT] Eircom, Go Further?

It's been driving me nuts for weeks too.

If Eircon wants to be associated with high-achieving
athletes it shouldn't chop off and sell it's right arm
as soon it starts working well and of course it should
not bother entering any swimming contests as it
doesn't seem to float particularly well.

But seriously, the nerve of them, let them make
comparisons with world-class atheletes when we have a
world-class telecomms service.
Spend less on capering rodent advertisments and more
on bandwidth.

Now breathe, slowly. :)
