That is what you are UNH.
Yesterday I went to my (free) class and I needed to use my laptop to do some work on a presentation… apparently the person in my group who put together the presentation did not think spell checking was necessary. Anyway, UNH requires that everyone log there computer when they initially log on. But they are stupid. Now everytime I try to come to this weblog using Firefox I am required to logon. !&%&((@#+*%!! or Fucking Gaylord! This is annoying because I normally use Firefox because I hate the fonts in IE.
My life is pain?
I would like to let everyone know that I have written many things for this weblog since my last post. I have simply never completed one. There is something difficult about being stopped in the middle of an idea and trying to pick it up half a day later.
So… Saturday, after doing some homework for a class I am taking, Heidi, Jeff and I went to my parents house for dinner. My parents recently got back from Hawaii and wanted to show us some pictures they took. For those who do not know, some equals ~500. While I was a little overwhelm by the shear volume of pictures (most of which were of volcanoes) there were some pretty cool shots. I would post some but I did not bring the photo CD with me to work.*
Some after departing we made our way to a bar in ManchVegas to see some friends of ours and a band. The tenor sax player was wearing some tight fitting jeans, just for the ladies. Anyway, the band played some blues (and not martini bar blues either) and some people danced to it (Including what looked like a pair of wife-swapping couples who danced terribly. It was so bad that I felt self-conscious when my wife asked/forced me to the dance). If you followed the bar link above you will have noted that the Strangebrew is a ‘Beer Specialist’. Would a Beer Specialist run out of the Beer Special! Well they ran out of $2 Harpoon Octoberfest! I was forced to drink $2 Guinness instead! All in all a good night.
Yesterday was nice and lazy. I did nothing but play some Mario and watch TV (football and crap). It was nice. I cannot remember the last time I was able to be that lazy. Now I have to shake the desire to do nothing and start working. Booyah!

P.S. I did not proof read what I just wrote. I wonder how many examples of bad grammar you can find. My posts are like ‘Where’s Waldo’ for English teachers… yes I am calling Waldo a mistake. I know his parents!
*Yes I am writing this at work. I will work my 8 hours, never you fear.
Hello. It has been a while.
I have noticed lately that I have started using cliches, banalities, colloquialisms or balderdashes more often. In the past I always thought of these phrases as unoriginal, but recently I have started to realize that they are simply a way of making a complex idea understood using relatively few words. For example, I keep hearing the following phrase, “Do more with less!” (I am pretty sure that the exclamation point is always included in this phrase.) This is not a phrase that I will be using in the near future for the following reason. It is not true. What this phrase actually means is that you need to do more work but that you will not get paid for it. Basically, you are (here comes a very derogatory cliche) being Jewed.
Aside: Being ‘Jewed’… this phrase kind of amuses me, mostly because of what I imagine is its origin. I imagine that it comes from the middle ages when Jews lived in Catholic communities. These communities saw that the Jewish communities were not tithing (tithing supported many social programs: burial of dead, housing of orphans, keeping town records, e&c.) and assumed that they hoarding money. This was not helped by the Catholic rule against collecting interest, which the Jewish community took advantage of by becoming moneylenders. Here seems like a good time to make a token reference to Shylock… :p
Anyways, my point is Jebus was the name of Jerusalem prior to the invasion of the Jews so “Help me Jebus!” makes no sense. Also, the following are things I have been saying lately:
- I can’t remember any… Fuck off.
