Delayed ETAs and Bon Jovi on repeat

Monday, January 8th, 2007

Okay, so I got burned by another girl. Yeah, this was NOT cool. But the cool thing was that she was a little less rotten than other girls that I have talked to online. I am just so tired of this and I would just like to find someone that I can hold and embrace. Someone that I can walk life’s path with. Someone that will accept and appreciate me for everything that I am. Someone that will love me with an agape love that I will love them with. You see, I have never been loved by another human being. Not my family, no girlfriends and no reliable friends in this world. I am not very popular because I refuse to conform to other people’s standards.

I am not in the mood to talk to many people. And if you do wish to talk to me, you had better be able to withstand many minutes, if not hours, of ranting about how hard it is to find someone of the opposite sex that will love you. About how everyone with a loving family or close, reliable friends is blessed. I am not in a mood to pretend to be happy. Forgive me if I refuse to respond to your private messages or what not, I would not be in a good mood anyways. I am also writing a whole number of posts for four days (8 posts) so I don’t have to respond to comments. It’s evil, I know, but I am not in the mood to play comment police.

To my faithful clients: You will receive everything you ordered. Plus, I will remember this when you want another project so you will very likely save money on your next project. However, when life continuously shits on you, it does not allow you to focus on your work. It’s only two days more in many cases and I apologise for the additional time required. I just need time to centre myself.

RIP Saddam Hussein

Sunday, December 31st, 2006

Okay, as of this week, Saddam Hussein was executed in Iraq by the gallows. I am not too happy about this, considering that it was televised and it was a murder. Not only did they violate Saddam Hussein’s rights as a human being but he should have been executed in private so that he could at least go with a bit of dignity. People on death row in the United States are usually alone or with those that they select to be in the viewing room when they are to be executed. Two wrongs do not make a right and murdering Saddam Hussein was not right, because all it does is increase the blood on our hands.

It is never right to take another human life. No matter how bad they were, it is not right to take away their life. And for people to be cheering at the death of another human being is just disgusting and wrong. Would you want people cheering at your funeral? If you were being executed with the death penalty, would you want all those who hated you, your exes and everyone that stand against you cheering on the executioners in the waiting room? How can people possibly cheer at this?

iPods in Vending Machines - my take on it

Saturday, December 30th, 2006

Okay, today I read this interesting post on iPods in vending machines and thought to myself, would I really want to buy an iPod FROM A VENDING MACHINE?!? The answer is absolutely not. First off, what colour would I get? It would really suck if I got pink for myself. The reason being is that DRM would very likely make it so there is no music on the iPod from the very start and of course, I have two options from this point.

The first option would be to hook it up to my MacBook Pro and sync it with iTunes and download the latest iPod software (assuming I can even get an Internet connection). The benefit from this is that all my music would already be on the iPod and I can play it when I get on the plane. The problem is that I will be draining my MacBook’s battery life and I kinda like to work while I am on a flight. Normally, with flights across Canada, this wouldn’t be a serious issue, but if my flight has to connect somewhere (it’s inevitable), I am probably going to need a bigger battery - especially while waiting in airports where most of the people in departures speak French and only French (like Montreal).
