May 22

There is 2 distinct shades to life at the moment. The yin and the yang, black and blacker err white. Though one is of utter horrorscope for today:

You are feeling highly sensitive today, dear Virgo, and you may find yourself wanting to rescue injured birds, and take home lost dogs. Combine this nurturing, loving instinct with your action-oriented warrior drive that urges you to take charge and lead the fight. This combination of energies is very powerful! Send your loving internal instinct out into the world today to do great things.

Interesting I think. I might do some war driving soon.

Although these 2 shades could be two completely different things, but I’m not going there. It’s a dark and depressing road and I’ve been there before, believe me you don’t want to go there.

I cranked up the Resume production facility again. My time at Iluka is nearing the end. It’s been worth doing. Theres rumours of large dollar sums again in Perth. I’m sending my sniffer dog up there to find out on my behalf (as I’m occupied down here …).

No one’s taken me up on the PSX pad offer, I’m a sad panda.

I bought food today. Food is good. I also divxed The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy TV show, woot. I’ve only watched one episode, and I don’t think it’s going to be as good as the book. Currently reading George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty Four, it’s interesting.

“Yes, it’s the right planet, all right, ” he said again. “Right planet, wrong universe. “


Why do they lie?

Users. Why do they lie? They say they’ve had access for ages up until 5 minutes ago yet when you get to the bottom of it they have never had access. And the icing on the cake is when after all of the trouble of setting it up and getting it working, it’s not what they needed or wanted in the first place. Argh. Such is the power stuggle within Iluka resources.

On the sugar front, doc is right, there is a sugar mountain in the depths of the wardrobe in my room freenet front. I got an access point off ebay and some PCMCIA to PCI adaptors are heading my way, as are a undisclosed quantity of PCMCIA wireless cards which will be for sale soon.

On the PSX pad front, 2 is better than one… Get your PSX and N64 to USB convertors right here, roll up roll up, for this (once this week) opportunity … $30 secures one which includes a limited edition cardboard box and a bluey-purple disk without a label and one of these great adaptors, no drivers needed on 2000 or XP, thats right tree huggers, no drivers, just plug and play, literally. I’ve got quite a few of these and I need my money back so, um, get them, they are good. Yeah.

Sleeping patterns bah the other night I went to sleep at 7pm, got up at 1.45am (alarm) back to sleep at 4am and back up at 6.15am (alarm) … long story but it involved some ebay action.

It was Virohex’s 18th last night.
