i crys for all of teh preggos!>?!
Forget politics. let's just focus on Catherine zeta Jones

I decided to remove all my political posts and instead focus my energies on my new found *love*.

OMG Catherine Zeta Jones is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOO Hot!!! Ma ma mia. I mean, she was alright in Zorro, Entrapment, she was smokin. Tonight at the Oscars she was glowing. spank spank spank

dude....

there's nothing more I can say i think.

jael
There's a new...

Get Your War On strip out thats pretty funny: CLick.

I know what you're saying Enron- I think violence and destruction of public property is kind of the pits, but I don't think because you're in SF people shouldn't protest. We know Bush and his regime are gonna do whatever the fuck they want- comeon, MILLIONS of people have said NO to this war and these retards just don't care. They're more concerned with telling the Iraqis "Don't burn your oil fields- it will be considered war crimes." Fucking idiots. But, I think a lot of people feel like the need to do *something* to show thier opposition to this crap- if there hadn't been this huge anti-war movement in the first place, this war would have started months ago! We're at a point where civil disobedience is a lot more effective than just standing on the sidewalk holding signs- I know theres probably a lot of americans who honestly dont give a shit about whats going on in their name, but dude, theres also a lot of people who find this shit horrific and feel like they need to do something.

Bah, i don't know. Leave earlier for work. :)

Protesting

No I am serious, the daytime/weekday protesters are heavily comprised of neo-hippies and original hippies. The weekend ones are general people plus that group and are very reasonable. The daytimer/weekday protesters are quite beligerent. There is a difference between the two. I am all for the process of projection of voice. The problem is a group of protesters were acting much like they did in Seattle. Quote from the SFgate... "But small bands of protesters clashed with police, accosted motorists and vandalized a wide swath of the Financial District." Besides, again what I said is that the protestors need to get cities that are more conservative wound up, then maybe Bush will listen. Bush is not going to pay attention to SF's stance, he made that quite clear already.

There are a lot of mixed responses to these scinarios, a lot of people are quite unhappy about the amount of disruption to the city that they are able to lay down. Some of us do have to pay the bills. Perhaps my statements were overly harsh last night, but it is quite frustrating at times.

Yeah that was sweet what the Dixie Chicks said.

Cock n' Bush

it's not just hippies enron (fitting name, eh) - sucks you had trouble getting to work but it sucks more for the people having big bombs dropped on their heads for BULLSHIT reasons. Hey, you're always welcome to move back HERE anyways! Now I'm going to go eat my FRENCH fries and listen to some DIXIE CHIX@!@!@!1 (hope that last part didn't freak u out too much!) :)
F*ckers...

Okay I know Bush is an as*hole. I know this war business sucks ballz. BUT! and I mean BUT, I do not like having to deal with half the friggin' streets of SF blockaded by aggressive and beligerent hippies who have nothing better to do on a thursday morning. I was lucky and got to work on time, but most everyone else didnt. Less people=more work for me. More traffic delays=grouchy co-workers. My route seemed to skirt all the fun, plus I took the underground. Besides all this, bush does not give a crap about SF based protesting. All he is going to say is, they are a bunch a liberals anyway. If they want progress, get the bible belt to protest. Then he might listen. That being said, onward!

Elrock, I applaud your convictions on Real Network tripe. I hate that software. Everytime I have dealt with it, the bloatware violently engages itself into my system like a tick and buries its taint deep within the core of my registry, never to be cleared cleanly. I will not use it either. It has been my stance for several years and I will not come off of my stance until they make that software useable, stable, and clean.

Off of the soapbox... On to dinner. Congrats Ja -el.

1 quick intrupption

i was able to complete both my lab and final with 3 minutes to spare. 3 minutes longer and I would have been unable to complete the internet based final.

Not to mention, during the lab, the install fucked up once and after several recovery attempts, I was finally able to complete the project. Delay cost me 1 and half hours.

YAAAA! I AM KING OF ALL!

ok... I'll read the posts and amend this blog in due time. pending.
Note to rudy: How can u not know my email? fruitcake. I'll send it to you later.

Will Quicktime do?

That's the best I could do elcrock-a-rino: click HERE!

Enron: don't forget "target=display"

PS: That quicktime ver is small as hell- (EDIT: On michaelmoore.com he has links to windows-media-file versions but no luck for me with those links- try for you self.!)be a man and watch the REAL version- just delete real afterwards! :)

PEEPEE-S (On Kazaa people got an mpeg version up.)

Jael: Email me- i dont remember u email. Or call.

I'm watching Rosemary's Baby right now- you know I'd never seen that movie from the start- not bad!
Good News! It's a Suppository!

Actually, Game Empire just moved to 7051 Clairemont Mesa Blvd., a much more residential location and apparently still hold lots of tourney's and the like. So thats good. I'm not going to say all is good with the world because of this, but it's still good. Also, I signed up with the AudBlog, so that means for 3 bucks a month, you can hear me talk for up to 12, 2 minute clips every month! Hooray for listening to myself talk over and over and over again!

Grrr.... I can't watch the System video... I refuse to let Real touch ANY part of my computer, is there an mpeg of it somewhere?
Strange times indeed.

One Albert Gore, former VP of the USA jilted of a position in our government that may have prevent our current predicament with a certain undesireable country, has joined the ranks of apple.

Go Pods!
And so it begins...

While escaping a anti-war protest in downtown this evening, The Gulf War v2.0 began. Chopper, suck bush.

Yo momma.

PS Elrick, that is really a shame about Game Empire. Maybe they moved. One can only hope. Jack in the Box will live on in my heart.

Michael Moore directed this new video for System of a DOwn: watch it here.

DUDE el rudo, I'm not always at my desk!

Anyhow, I can get you a pretty decent hard drive, but it'll be at distributor cost. It's lower than retail, (the ones at best buys, frys or whatever) but you can probably find a better deal in the grey market ( internet, ebay auction sites), the only trouble with those are it's hard to return. Let me know what model your looking for and I'll give you a pricing... Seagate is recommended, IBM's lousy, fujitsu, etc

Just in case...

I got much joy and pain from this comix, so in case any of yous haven't seen it: CLiCK!

Pizza, Pizza! Pan, Pan!

TIME BEGINS 20:49:33.

Johnny those ASCII text graphics do not work very good on non-mono spaced fonts. Kinda gets lost in the translation. Spacing is different on every system. I also hear it is best to glue all the guys to one base, even if you have to stack them so that they are standing on each others heads. Elric made the critical tactical decision of putting 3-4 men to a base. What a dummy! What you really want is to concentrate all your firepower into one all powerful base that weighs about 15 pounds and is some 2 feet tall and prone to tipping over because of its top heavy nature. That is what a true tactican would do.

Elric: JA -EL DO NOT READ THIS BECAUSE YOUR NAME IS NOT ELRIC. I think I was able to give you a tactial advantage against Ja -el when playing PBI. He is going to stack all his men in one base. What a dope. Now tell him when he starts playing that this is a scenario the game designer anticipated and a rules clarification states that he has to roll on the crushed to death table as well as the negative cover rule. In case you do not know what the negative cover rule is, everytime you roll a die, that many men die on his base. Just insist you go first. There now you will save face and not look like a loser.

JA -EL YOU CAN START READING AGIAN You owe me 2500 dollars for the advice.

TIME END 21:02:29.

PS using psudo tags, aka < and / and > together does not work so good. Gives a "Error 203: Character not allowed" error message. XML parser dumped, then it just striped the puedo tags out. SO much for fake funny HTML Tags.

kinda looks like jughead, but it's a rough drawing. I'll work on the outlay of the face later.

We really have to talk about these brilliant self help schemes that your bazzilionair bosses has come up with and get in on some of this action... does it require making some home videos about how I made 2500 dollars in less than 15 minutes? I'm down with that. I'm Joh Nee... and I teech u How to make mOn nee! for da Hon nee's!
in less than 25 minutes, you will instantly CHANGE YOUR LIFE! Don't sit around at home, do something about it! Jon eeetersene, a single virile male of 25, has proven to use my program to make himself wealthy.

Joh nee: "so did you use my money making program?"
Jon: "I sure did. And Joh nee, I want to thank you for changing my life.
Joh nee: " no problem, tell us how much did you make in your first transaction. "
Jon: "It sounds crazy, but I made over 2500 dollars in the first deal that I made, AND it took me less than 15 minutes"
Joh nee: " Wow! that's great"
Jon: (smiling) "And I sure don't have to worry about the Hon-eees!"
Both: (laughing)

I'm just kidding Elrock. I'm darn interested in hearing out the rest of the details. We'll talk.

PBI update: Almost done with the miniatures, time to do the basing. Then it's shopping for scenery.

Viral Marketing (insert terrorist threat here)

One of my favorite viral marketing ideas was the little orange handpuppet video. The premise was a little, fuzzy orange handpuppet was sitting shotgun in this guys car and he was banging his head to the music (some techno stuff). It was funny and short and easily downloadable and emailable (a few megs, maybe). So when you get it in your email, you think its cute or whatever and send it to your friends, they think its cute and so on. THere is no point, it just brightens your day. Eventually what happens is either a corporation buys the rights to use the little character in advertising, or the corporation already owned him and set out to create a viral buzz about the fuzzy guy (which is more likely) and then he debuts on a commercial. This then immediately associates the cute guy that everyone likes and has seen before, with the company and their product. Its like a combination cheap advertising/product branding all rolled into one. "IT" which became the Seguay, had a similar buzz to it before the bust. What the bajillionares in my office have done is they bought a very focused database of names related to a handful of self-help people and started sending them some freebie emails called (I think) "Wisdom Flashes". These were emails that has some sort of feel-good message, something to think about, some free bit of self help. Then they started giving information in the emails about their product to be. Eventually, there was a large base of interested (and willing) parties that would be willing to pay for more of this stuff, which have become online courses. And so on and so on and they have not officially launched yet and still made $18,000 over the weekend.

Whew.

More on their business plan to follow.

Battle Cry Update: one Union Canon, one casualty canon counter.

Dare I ask?

Ja -eL, what in the world are you doing with that selection of movies? Did you lose a bet or something? Johnny sign yourself up for Netflix or GreenCine. Hey did they use coke during your nose surgery?

Elris: AT your current rate you should finish the terraineous maximous for Battle cry in about a year. I think you need to pick up the picante sauce. WHere did you run across that fine Bang Bang Bang movie. Absolutely brilliant. Makes me think of FYP.

In my experience Pheonix = Hot + Boring. Not a good combo. On the otherhand if we went as a group to any place, I think we could make any place fun by just driving there and acting like fools for a while. Us + scenery = fun. Aimey keeps sabotage the room with dried squid. Oh my god it is alwful. I think I am going to bring it to the next convention just to make you all feel my pain.

Alright, I am Audi.




retarded movies

After watching "the sweetest thing" (yeah shoot me) and then following the encore with 40 days and 40 nights, you wonder why people say that Hollywood is going to the shits. Or am I the only one saying that, seeming the teenage public seems to love and revere such junk. I guess different generations like different things. Whatever happened to the good old days when humor wasn't defined as making silly references to Penises and Pussies... oh wait... well, ok not in such vulgar and abundance and crude references... OK... at least it was never in the movies! I can't think of one movie yet. It's all getting so riskee... remember it started with that movie "kids"? Then Hollywood just got progressively perverted.

Jael

The sweetest thing: (eh? reference to what thing?) D- as in "dickus suckus"
40days and 40 nights: somewhat more of a plot, but not by far D+ (as in how long it takes to watch the entire clip)
