Major crashes with OS X 10.4 (on a G5 iMac). Bad hardware?
It looks like I'll have to take it in for repairs, but maybe there's a software fix?

I want to earn extra money as a writer. I'm not bothered what I write, if it's a paying gig. But I'm "remote" in the sense that I live in Australia. There must be someone, somewhere in the world, who will pay me to write and submit stuff online?

Has anyone got any good verbal brain-teasers please?
Examples of what I mean by a "verbal brain-teaser":
- A man needs to wake up at 9 AM. He winds his clock, sets it, and goes to sleep at 7.45PM -- how many hours does he sleep?
- You throw away the outside, cook the inside, and then eat the outside and throw away the inside -- what is it?
- A man comes into town on Friday, stays overnight and leaves on Thursday -- how?

Can anyone identify this artwork for me? It's on the wall at 1630 Revello Drive, which is the home of one Ms Buffy Summers...
