Guilt
kicks in.. I should have worked harder today!
Pitty
I did a minor 0.88 today
I d love to put up a 2.0 anytime
But I REALLY fear for it :(
BBL (ING) seems to have changed his Home Bank system
WHAT A MOMENT TO DO SO!!
..
no, they were probably just temporarilly Down :/ Bitches
Anywho, thats ok now
Only one chapter left in "Kingdom of Fear".. :/
Sleep!
Vi s waiting for me
Admirers around the world mourned a man [HsT] who only recently described the possibility of another Bush term as "four more years of syphilis".
I think I'll be reading his Hells Angels soon, Im curious about his "Rum Diaries", "Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail '72 (altough that one might be hard for me to completely grasp, being european), "Gonzo Papers, Vol. 1: The Great Shark Hunt: Strange Tales from a Strange Time" and most of all "Hey Rube: Blood Sport, the Bush Doctrine, and the Downward Spiral of Dumbness Modern History from the Sports Desk" .. I expect that to be a bit the same as his Kingdom of Fear.. I'll see :D
.. Its a pitty - Im curious what he d have to say about things happening & about to happen..
& DAMN I need to go to cuba :D Im more & more persuaded that NOT being in Cuba in the event of Castro's death would be something to regret the rest of my life! As would be not having visited cuba now that Fidel's still alive!!
HsT Wikipedia
I just made my first Wikipedia correction - Funnily enough in a piece about HsT :) I'm reading his book "Kingdom of Fear".. an autobiographic piece trough letters & naratives.. So when I read about his letters & that HsT hadnt written an AutoBio.. I just had to react & changed the Wiki to whats online now.. I only added "Some of these letters, poured into a story by narative passages, were already bundled into Thompsons "Kingdom of Fear" but it can hardly be considered a real autobiography." but still.. Im quite happy to have contributed :D
on a HsT page none the less - lol
Pitty he s dead.. Im getting to liking him.. Good Book! Good Writer! Interesting Person!

Ageïng
Age is a fact noöne can escape
Another fact is ageïng! This one tough, is something not everyone takes lightly. We cant escape the fysical side, but some try to escape the social & behavioural side.
Other people might argue that Age is a piece of clothing in a world where nudity is unthinkable and can only be worn with its inherent Grace. Grace you altough have to choose to use! These people might also observe that the other groups mainly succeeds for a while & then becomes a parody of aging, the very concept they are trying so hard to escape.. Escape in a pathetic and useless attempt!
Count me amongst those 'other people'
.. I now have the feeling I recieved a last help from my dad when I needed it.. Its sad.. It feels like a LAST help & .. Heritages are shit! The money is more than welcome but .. You know.. :)
..
:'(
I have a whole load of stories about Kaishis 22nd BDay :) Unbelievable stuff happened - Once again
Stories to come :D

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

I dont get the fun of it, but here s my age..
You Are 24 Years Old |
24 Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax. |

Wednesday, April 13, 2005
I think I’m helping my fellow man by labeling all the stupid people in the world
It’s not a crime, it’s a public service.
I rediscovered Hanzi Smatter A site about Kanji tats gone wrong & it linked at one moment to the linked article with the above .. :D
The cat just chewed off the mouse thingies from my iPod headset - fuckin bitch!
I went into a lot of stores today & if I d have my way I had probably spent around 200 euros.. Now I spent -tnx to a great effort- only 3 euro
The day they hand me a 100 euros & say "go spend it at the fnac I ll be outa there within half an hour with the whole Asimov - Foundation series, the full stories by EA Poe (all english ofcourse) and some other crap
Needles to say what my next buys will be :D I desperately need 100 euros for books!
I do have to admit that I have 5 books queued to read + one I just started in (damn that one might be CRAP)
Tuesday, April 12, 2005
Testament was Nice :) I only wished I HAD died :) hehe - some funny pics around too!
I discovered that a friend from RoD read (reads?) my blog.. always funny to find out! Dont hesitate to leave some words of wisdom, Yall :D
School project..

Hmmm.. Senseo!
Im centralising al my data to my Linux Box.. Its really nececsarry I do this.. Its sickening how redundant & decentralised my data has gotten.. Now I just need some money to tripple my disk space :D
I finished my Roofworld book.. - Nice One!!
& started in the Cricheon book Vi read earlier..
Working.. & as usual I need more space on my desk.. Too much computers for too litle space.. Its a problem! Another problem & this one is about next yaer is that I ll need a fast computer for school purposes & that I dont have any. Except my dads but I think my mom & Bro ll need that one..
Im getting the hang of the Catan Cardgame - Just won against the most difficult AI
Catan boardgame against John on the other hand isnt that easy :) Sea3D, a catan multiplayer internet thingy.. Great stuff!
Eat, turn in car, RoD Meeting, Call Vi, Work for school, Sleep.. Thats What Im Facing now..

I just had a wonderfull ID for next week :D
This is the kind of dangerous gibberish that used to be posted, in the form of mimeographed bulletins, in Police Department locker rooms.
Indeed: KNOW YOUR DOPE FIEND. YOUR LIFE MAY DEPEND ON IT! You will not be able to see his eyes because of Tea-Shades, but his knuckles will be white from inner tension and his pants will be crustedwith semen from constantly jacking off when he can't find a rape victim. He will staggerr and babble when questioned. He will not respect your badge. The Dope Fiend fears nothing. He will attack, for no reason, with every weapon at his command - includtng yours. BEWARE. Any officer apprehending a suspected marijuana addict should use all necessary force immedately. One stitch in time (on him) wil usually save nine on you. Good luck.
The Chief.
Yeah, F&L style, I just prepared the memos :)
pff
I just turned part of an exercise in.. pathetic
fuckin ell
& I had to set Vi loose in the city, fuckin crap
Vi has a small knee injury :/
We went snowboarding & the lift hit her..

Snowboarding on sunday was GOOD!
I did some nice jumps, one grab even..
yeah, felt good
Im looking forward to Friday :D

The kid nodded eagerly as we roared off.
0 Christ, I thought, he's gone around the bend. No more of that talk, I said sharply. Or I'll put the leeches on you. He grinned, seeming to understand. Luckily, the noise in the car was so awful - between the wind and the radio and the tape machine - that the kid in the back seat couldn't hear a word we were saying. Or could he?

Monday, March 14, 2005
I was around Wednesday when the drugs began to take hold! I was unable to describe the terror and fear I was feeling (God Damn, this looks like promissing shit) The mind recoils in disbelief as the body dances its charade. I had it all!
The fear was at its highest on friday evening
We were at a party
Nijdrop..
The strange music had a nauseating effect! Between 12 and 2 I spent 3 hours trying to cope with it. "Ignore this terrible drug", I tought.. "Pretend its not happening!" But it was around 2 I couldnt stand it anymore! The hour between 1.40 and 1.45 had worn me down. This was one introspective nightmare! I had to get out, so I told Vi about my problem - She understood - and was well on my way to my car.
Vi persuaded me to stay at the party a lil longer and when, around 2.15, the drugs wore off.. I realised my condition!
My fuckin perscription drugs were having side effects
So I rode the mad torpedo that was that party to the end.. with a cozy night's rest with Vi close to me as reward!
Its been hell, they re messing with my head! Ive had trips all around, good ones, bad ones.. Moody shit, poor Vi :(
But I'm ok now.. The doktor told me I could spread 'em more. 4 a day, but 1 seperate ones instead of 2x 2. Im still high.. it just isnt that bad anymore
& all that to get rid of a nail infection!!
2 more weeks (with 3 weeks in between) like that comming up!!
Doom Savegames.. (how to save & resume a doom game)
Doom is a game that takes some hours & its natural that not everyone has the space to just let the game sit to continue next day - next week - ..
PC doom has an easy trick into this :) Savegames! And the same is possible with the boardgame! Just make sure to capture everything.
There s some posibilities in how to do it.
One of the techniques would be just writing it all down.. Easy for the players, a lot of writing tough & a bit harder to keep track of items lying around, scenario progress, monster & player positions, ..
An easier way to solve it all (the one we chose) would be to just take pictures of it all :) In this age and time, everyone has at least one digital camera lying around (no?) so this doesnt even have to cost anything (as opposed to clasic pictures)
First off, organise each player's cards into one picture..
The Marines..
Dont bother with the ref sheet & underlay - They re nice & easy to play with but you know you have them and would only fill up the image so Why Bother :D
You also need to get the health tokens right.. The total is dependent on the number of players so you dont need to know that, but the lost ones or left ones need to be kept into account.. Choose wichever is least, spread those out & put them in the picture.. Do remember if you took the ones lost or the ones left!! (we opted to spread out The Ones Lost)
Blue player - retake
Red Player
The minature in the picture determines wich players stats it are.
Dont hesitate to take 2 pictures for clarity!!
The Invader
The invader only has 3 significant stats..
The number of frags scored (lay out just like the Marine healt), the cards in his hand (simple picture would do, make sure the text is readable enough to distinguish the cards) and the number of cards on the discard pile (Write this down.. One could also keep track of exactly which cards were already used and which werent.. but we tough that to be too much of a hassle)
Invaders hand
Cards left (written down, 21 cards - kaarten is dutch for cards), player names (for reference), victory points
So far so good.. Now we know what the players had, time for the board..
For starters, its nice to have a big overview of the board.. Wich doors were open/closed, where the monsters are, player positions, etc..
Overview
To mark the two marines, we just pointed them out for the picture :) Its simple & it works.. Do check the lighting because you might accidentally shade out a space like the richt arm does in our picture.. I remember there being no monsters & an open door, but still..
As you noticed, the big picture is nice but its not Really clear where everyone fits in, so its nice (& well important) to capture the monster/player heavy areas with extra care..
We opted to take 4 pictures, one out of each ingame direction, as the scenario dedfines them)
North, East, South, West
Do notice the Compas thingy in the "North" picture
This way, everyone should be happy and discutions & doubt should be eliminated!
Now we have the whole game captured in a clear way for when we decide to play on.
Toughts about taking the pictures.. Try to have decent lighting & a neutral base to lay the things on.. If the base is too busy, you might have a hard time discerning the smaller pieces, certainly with the players tokens!
Also.. Dont try to rely on the pictures only.. The invading player has a scenario describing the playfield, the obstacles, .. !!
These were our toughts on saving a doom game to resume it later on, I hope you enjoyed our toughts :)
This is an article I just wrote for Board Game Geek about saving a Doom The Boardgame game so that one can continue playing it later..

Ignore that nightmare in the bathroom. Just another ugly refugee from the Love Generation, some doom - struck gimp who couldn't handle the pressure. My attorney has never been able to accept the notion - often espoused by reformed drug abusers and especially popular among those on probation - that you can get a lot higher without drugs than with them.
Im starting to fear
the good dokter died of a brain anneurism himself
..
while wanting to cook something on a gas fire thus killing his whole office personell & familly!
Its amazing, really
I'm calling 1 more time round 11 & .. for fucks sake one more time this afternoon & if by then I havent had any human interaction, I'll call the regular dokter for advice! *sigh*
(F&L status: 6. A Night on the Town . . . Confrontation at the Desert Inn . . . Drug Frenzy at the Circus Circus . . .)
I just called
& after waiting longer than I ever have before, I finally stumbled on a voicemail service.
But I can hardly leave a voicemail, can I :s
I'm calling him 1 more time & if that doesnt work, I'm calling my regular dokter about when the fuck to reach the other!
Operation Get The Dokter
The new plan is to try to reach him before noon.. might help
Next step would probably be driving there but I think I'll call my own dokter before that!!
Im going insane!
Everything that feels aquard around my body makes me freak the fuck out
with doom scenarios all around
I slept 4 hours this night and havent really eaten anything or drank much since waking up, its normal I feel some negative effects from that.. But instead of rationally realising that I m feeling the nagging terror of doom scenarios looming over my shoulders
This whole fase makes me very introspective & gives me "deep" insights on life *puke*
Yesterday it even dominated most in-car conversations with Vi..
She s such a darling to listen & support trough all this shit!
I Hope I Can Fuckin Reach ANYONE in that dokters practice today!! Even an answering machine to soothe my efforts would do

Sleep Profiler
Your sleep is very well optimised, scoring 89 %.
You said you do not have a problem with sleep and you are not at all sleepy during the day, which indicates your body is getting the sleep it needs. Quality of sleep is more important than quantity. You may find your personalised advice below useful for the odd bad night.
Body and Health
You are an "Owl"
* You are built to be at your best later in the day. Surprisingly, it also means your body clock is more flexible than people with standard or lark-like body clocks.
* Ideally, people should wake at the same time everyday, but being an owl, you can probably cope quite well when your sleep pattern is disrupted.
I already tought so :)
Viva confirmation tough
Tonight
was nice
Kirill once again showed his Entertainment skillz :D
it was fun
& now to bed where my Lady awaits me :)

My ticket to being Filthy Rich.. I only need to send it in :D
Hey Michael!
It's me, Goeffry! Remember? We met at Mariah Carey's coke dealer's place. How are things going over at Miramax? Oh, that's fantasmo! So, I wanted to turn you on to this project I'm repping. Between you and me, it's going to be a huge Rober Ebert mindfuck! I mean, this is going to be the biggest thing since “Waterworld”! So like, squint your mind, have a drink, sit back, and picture this:
This movie is “The Insatiable Cheerleader” meets “Schindler's List” meets “Shrek”. With a little bit of “Showgirls” thrown in for good measure! It's a love story about a girl who meets a she-male. Then fists her. Then there's a twist involving a hydrogen bomb. But it's ALSO an action film - with a clairvoyant janitor, a two naked old people with nipple rings chase, and three climaxes in Graceland, Hoboken, and on top of a bedridden 800 pound man. It has action, romance, and SEX. There are lots of steamy love scenes in the trunk of a rickshaw involving a diamond chaise lounge. It's sensuous, and coldly erotic. We felt the movie also needed an ethnic subtext, so there's a small part or two for a colorful goomba. But really, this is a family movie. It's about one family's struggle to overcome some really tough thing and then a heartfelt lesson is learned. The ending has a mass suicide, a song and dance number, a “Twilight Zone”-like surprise and a heartwarming sense of spine-tingling terror. We don't have a script yet, but we have a great duet with Cher and Rammstein. We think Tom Cruise, Jennifer Lopez and ME would be perfect for this movie! Maybe Sir Anthony Hopkins can have a two-minute cameo as the Academy-award winning English guy that gives the movie integrity! We call it “Cut-Rate Sequel”. It'll make $500,000,000 domestically and $500,000,000 internationally. Oh – and this movie will test really well with “Urban“ baby boomers.
