11/23/2006 So I Now Know How It WorksSo for the last fourteen months I've been doing an acting up position. Taking charge of staff, doing paperwork and generally playing supervisor. Now one of the biggest problems is my mouth, bosses say we want this done, I say no problem, but what about the Health and Safety aspects. They say H&S, will it interfere with us getting something done, I say yea, they say do it regardless. So I create and get a bad rep. Anyways, job comes up for renewal along with another fella wanting in. They say jump, he says how high, I say why, he gets the job. Now I am going back to my former post, but with added bonuses, or as we call them sweeteners. Why, cos I can create all kinds of shit if I choose. Question is, do I tell them to shove their sweeteners or say Integrity fuck off. It's nearly christmas you know? 11/16/2006 This appealled to me...Faith
In Jerusalem, a female journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who had
been going to the Wailing Wall to pray, twice a day, every day, for long,
long time; so she went to check it out.
She went to the Wailing Wall and there he was. She watched him pray; and
after about 45 minutes, when he turned to leave, she approached him for an
interview.
I'm Rebecca Smith from the BBC. Sir, how long have you been coming to he
wall and praying?"
"For about 60 years."
"60 years! That's amazing! What do you pray for?"
"I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews, and the Muslims. I pray for
all the hatred to stop and I pray for all our children to grow up in safety
and friendship."
"How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?"
"Like I'm talking to a fucking brick wall." 10/15/2006 I Know We Shouldn't Take the Mick, But...I liked this so much I linked and also put a pic in the Albums. 9/8/2006 Do They Make Kryptonite Doggy Chews ?I found this fucking hilarious and then thought 'Now that is just not right, he may not even like DC. Woof, woof, woof woof prolly translates to I wanna be the new Guardian in Omega Flight :-). 9/6/2006 Steve IrwinUnless you've been hiding in a cave over the last couple of days you can't help but know that Steve Irwin, Crocodile Hunter died after being barbed by a Stingray. So what's that got to do with anything I hear you ask, well it's just that I've seen it mentioned in various places that in a way he had it coming. The kinda 'if you play with fire, your gonna get burnt' logic. Now personally I don't hold with that and mourn his passing, but just maybe I'm unedumacted and he had it coming. If thats the case I'll remain an uneducated pleb as I found him entertaining and good viewing. The idea of applauding his death cos of what he did, kinda nauseates me. 9/4/2006 Oh Yea :-)My all time favourite comic is about to get another revamp ( http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=82888 ). This looks like it could be the real deal and AF fans are going to get what they've been after for years. I know it's called Omega Flight, but as long as it captures the spirit of what made the team so likeable in the first place then it's good enough for me. 8/1/2006 Still Here...despite all the attempts to fuck up my on line activities. Hard Drive go bang, Modem go Bang, DVD go bang, but getting it all together bit by bit. A few more days then I should be more prolific, but in the interim, just one thing, Why The Fuck Can't I Be English ? I am English, but many people seem to wanna expunge England as an entity off the face of the planet, it's so bloody irksome :-) 5/13/2006 Saturdays Eh!I live about a ten minute bus ride from Upton Park, home to West Ham United. Today they are prolly going to play their most important match in a year. The F.A Cup final against Liverpool. Cup final day is special, non of that glitz of the Superbowl, but a full day of hope and disappontment, depending on your viewpoint. Personally I want West Ham to win, cos it seem the right thing to do. My intentions are to watch it at my daughters and then go to Walthamstow Stadium to do first aid during tonights dog racing. This brings me to my next point. What the hell is that all about? The dogs have got to be stupid, they do the same thing week in week out, you'd think one of them would have sussed out that there is no way in hell they are gonna catch that mechanical hare. Yet they keep on trying, still they aren't as dumb as the mug punters who gamble their weeks wages on the off chance that the dog they chose may actually get passed the line first.
After todays fannying about I'm gonna take it easy tomorrow and then relax into my week off from work. I have switched off my work phone and there is no way in hell I'm gonna switch it on. I have lots of catching up to do, plus mywife recently aquired a copy of Stephen Kings 'Cell', it interests me so I may spend some time on that. Normally I can't read King, his work seems long and protracted, but Cell has a feel about it. 5/9/2006 The Humour ThingI was enjoying the humour pics, but they have been there for a while. So I thought I would put up some images from one of my favourite artist's. Lowry wasn't into all that pomp and ceromony stuff, he painted England as he saw it. I ain't no art critic so can't do anything fancy about why I like Lowry's work. I just do. Tracking Back on a TrackbackI have just sprent twenty minutes deleting trackback links which have sprung up all over the place. I checked some older entries and they have had the trackback treatment and I can't be arsed to clear all those. Most of these trackback things go to advertisement sites or weird search engines. Anyways, I'm sure someone will give me a solution, so that I erradicate this new threat to my internet enjoyment. Please hurry up. 5/6/2006 Hyde Park and That.Well I gave in to temptation and decided to go to Hyde Park on the 17th June. Nott sure about who I'm looking forward to seeing more, 'Motorhead' or 'Angels & Airwaves'. I saw Motorhead many years ago at Hammersmith Odeon. If I remember rightly I couldn't hear properly for days. Still it will be good to see Lemmy beating the granny out of his Bass. AVA are bloody good though, 'It Hurts' being an instantly memorable track. So roll on the 17th, I just hope my heart can take it. 4/30/2006 Our Cat has had Six Kittens...How to give a cat a pill 1.

1. wrap something to eat round it. Silent HillWatched this film tonight, I've played the game. I believe I have a handle on what is actually happening, but please can someone give me a simplified explanation. I believe that the reason Sean Bean cannot see his wife and adopted daughter/Demon (whatever it is) is because they are in a different dimension or dead, both ? 4/26/2006 Read It...Was going to plug Marvel Civil War, coming up very soon, but will be damned if I know how to get a HTML entry to work. Suggestions welcome, preferably written on a five pound note and sent to... 4/9/2006 We're all doomed...The Academy chose to honor one Professor Eric R. Pianka, an eminent ecologist who studies desert ecologies, with its 2006 Distinguished Texas Scientist Scientist award. Professor Pianka used the occasion to champion the notion, apparently without sanction of the Academy, that the Earth can only be saved if ninety percent of the human beings alive today are purged form the planet.
I wonder if this 90% of the planets population will include academics or just us unedumacated folk :-) 4/8/2006 Coughing and Farting...this is how my daughter described the noise the car was making as she and her partner drove back from Northolt this morning. Cars are nasty things. They will chug along nicely on nothing journeys, but when you need them to perform properly they 'Cough & Fart' their way up the M25. Thank God I cycle everywhere. Well, will do when I can be arsed to fix the back wheel puncture. 4/2/2006 And we call ourselves civilised...I really do have to learn how to do this linking thing. http://www.sundaymirror.co.uk/news/tm_objectid=16892939%26method=full%26siteid=62484%26headline=born%2dat%2d24%2dweeks%2d%2dhow%2dcan%2dthey%2dcall%2dmy%2dprecious%2dlittle%2djack%2da%2dbed%2dblocker%2d-name_page.html .
I kinda find it disgusting and perturbing that so called followers of the Hypocratic Oath can even suggest such a thing. Who are they to decide how much a life is worth. Will it set a precedence? If they get their wishes with this, who next can they turn there attention to. Severely brain damaged people, those elderly who they deem to have no quality of life. I really do find this concept of withdrawing medical care from prem babies to be disgusting and ugly. |
