ARGHHHH I’ve already typed a very similar post to this but guess what? Another bloody power cut, it was only for 3 seconds but long enough to feck up my PC Grrrr!
Anyway pretty normal day in work, kept busy but there was one interesting(we’ll say) moment. A lady of the older persuasion was in talking to one of the other members of staff. She was explaining how she’d only just got around to buying her first VCR only to be told by all and sundry that they were on the way out. Some people just can’t get a break.
Pretty uneventful day really but have done some mental shopping (you know planning to spend money you don’t have) and there is a teeny bit of news.
News first:
New System Of A Down song for completely legit download Cigaro. It’s OK, you can hear it’s SOAD but the double album better be of a slightly higher calibre.
Now to the shopping:
Have you seen the new Mac Mini? I was considering getting an iBook. I’m an Apple admirer (except for that horrid iPod thing) but not an Apple user so I was going to take the jump when Al pointed the Mac Mini out to me. I think I’ll get the wireless mouse and keyboard setup and find a good inexpensive flat screen display. I can take it when I move out of home which is cushty. The only difference between it and the iBook is I can’t use it on the train. However if you’ve been on the trains out my way using your lungs is a luxury so I probably couldn’t use the iBook either.
The iPod shuffle is not impressive in any way shape or form. It sucks, that’s all I will say on the topic.
Also my boots, both Docs and New Rock, are ending their useful life so I need replacements as well as a “respectable” pair of shoes with my suit for interviews/real job. Here are my solutions:
New Rock Cowboy Boots for the “respectable” ones.
New Rocks 796 Just great, just great.
Ten Hole Steel Toe Capped Docs Docs, with Ten holes AND steel toecaps, Rock And/Or Roll.
I’m thinking of getting the sizes right in the shops in town and then ordering online. Will save a bob or two not that they’re available on the Irish highstreet either.
Oh almost forgot my Link Of The Day:
Sheep & Bones A webcomic which is about a sheep and his skeletal friend. It owns you and your mother, I thought he’d stopped it until recently(he had) and have only found out now this instant it’s back, 21 new Sheep & Bones Woo Hoo!
Later Days,
Halo
