Bullet Points

No, I’m not talking about a new video game. I’m merely trying to save time and squeeze a full update into a few short sentences. So, for the moment, savor these mere bits and pieces of an update and be assured I’ll update in a more robust fashion as soon as time permits. That said…

-The website went over well in class. Actually, better than well, everyone loved it (as far as I could tell). I apparently have 1337 skillz.

-I love my car. I probabaly haven’t mentioned that in a while, but I really do. It’s just so much damn fun to drive.

-I’ve decided not to bring back my newer, more powerful coputer with me on break. There’s not really any point. The old one is fast enough to play CS, check email and surf the web. That’s all I really need. Plus it will save a whole lot of room in the car this way.

-Kazza users are morons and apparently bitter when they don’t get their way. Just a few minutes ago I was messaged with 6 seperate notes which contained the following: “hello”, “you have , I want it”, “why won’t you share with me?”, “Are you blocking your files?”, “Fine, feel my wrath!”
At that point, McAfee popped but saying I was being infected with W32/Pate.b but that it had blocked it. I didn’t take kindly to that. I pulled out NeoTrace, traced his IP and contacted his service provider. The sad part is, the only reason he didn’t get to download a file is because my que was full. What’s the world coming to?

-I went to Tony Roma’s tonight with Lauren and Brittney. It’s this BBQ and rib place downtown. Damn it was tasty.

-Soldier of Fortune 2 sucks, Mafia is so-so, Hitman 2 is so-so and Neverwinter nights is my fantastic new addiction.

-Classes going well. Photo’s are coming fast and furious. Ok, not fast and furious but they’re at least turning out well.

-Lauren bought me Jelly Bellys today. I love Lauren 🙂

-I have to print A LOT this weekend.

-I’m broke but I just got a new loan approved.

-I’m sleepy.

That is all.

It is here…

Please, input, suggestions, comments, anything.

FEEDBACK!!!

Oh, and in celebration, I’m releasing a huge (10 piece) wallpaper pack. You’ll like it. I’ll post it to DevArt so that it doesn’t kill poor Hindenburg (the server in case some of you didn’t know) with it’s large file size.

It’s Coming…

*rumble*

…”holy shit… what’s that noise?”

*rumble*

“something is headed this way!”

IT’S COMING… prepare.

hmmm… the devil?

“MS gets a lot of inappropriate criticism, but if they implement this, they only friends they’ll have are their own employees and the drug addicted movie and music industry.

Palladium will bring the PC revolution to a screeching, crashing halt. Palladium has to be the stupidest, most boneheaded idea ever invisioned by the mind of Man. MS must have some sort of suicide wish!”

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

My main concern is that people are going to bitch and complain all the way to the store and fork over money for a new OS anyway. I think it’s sad that people think they have a “choice” too. I mean, sure, I could switch to FreeBSD, Linux, but what would that do? It would mean that I couldn’t take an OpenOffice document to Kinko’s to be printed. I couldn’t take a picture to the photolab on a CD to work on it. Sure, I could surf the web, write email and edit pictures, but the interoperability isn’t there. Microsoft knows this. I know they do. They have everyone over a barrel with their pants down. The abuse is coming, it’s just a matter of time. And what’s with this bullshit of them changing the Win2k EULA? I installed that operating system 2 years ago. At the time my EULA didn’t mention anything about MS installing anything without my permission. Now, SP3 SPECIFICALLY states that you give up that right and let them have their way with your system. I didn’t agree to that 2 years ago. So, screw SP3, screw SP2 for XP. I’ve never had security issues that my router and firewall couldn’t handle. They can keep their “security patches” if they only ones it give “security” to them.

/end rant.

The things you can do with a baseball bat…

Well, all sorts of things have been going on the past few days. I won’t bore you with mindless details (although you’ve probably come to expect that). Let’s see… I’ve shot some film, finished a project for class, started another project, got half-way through my website redesign (only content left), played the Doom 3 leaked Alpha (holy heck!) and played even more Mafia. It’s actally one heck of a game. Think GTA3 only durring the 1930’s and with the mob instead of gangs. It’s got everything from tommy-guns to old cars to a great sound track. Here’s a quote for the site:

The player assumes the role of a gangster in an American city of the 1930s, and gets a chance to live through gangster’s rise and fall. In a spell-binding story of human hunger for power, he will experience everything that was taking place in the underworld during this stormy period: high-speed car chases, bootlegging, assassinations, and bank robberies.

I could ramble on and on about my daily routine but most of you probably don’t care about what I had for lunch so I won’t bother. It’s just classes, work, classes, more work and that’s about it.
