I was feeling a bit lonely so I decided life would be more fun if I had a pet. So, I went to the pet shop and told the owner that I wanted to buy an unusual pet.

After some discussion, I finally bought a Centipede which came in a little white box to use for his house.

I took the box back home, found a good location for it, and decided I would start off by taking my new pet to the pub to have a drink.

So, I asked the centipede in the box, 'Would you like to go down The Queen's Head Pub with me and have a beer?'
But there was no answer.

This bothered me a bit, but I waited a few minutes and then asked him again, 'How about going to the pub for a drink?'
But again, there was no answer from my new friend and pet.

So, I waited a few minutes more, thinking about the situation.

I decided to ask him one more time; this time putting my face up against the centipede's house and shouting, 'Hey, in there! Would you like to go to The Queen's Head Pub and have a drink with me?'

A little voice came out of the box:
'I heard you the first time! I'm putting my f****ng shoes on.'

Commodore 64 update!
-Well, I'm poking around with the programming language, just for old ActionScript-times' sakes :P
-I found a place onine that still makes and sells C64 stuff, which is uber-cool because we could do with another joystick (we have two, but one is short and awkward and the button-press doesn't register, the other fits to the hand perfectly and is awesome but doesn't go left).
-Today we were playing and discovering, when suddenly the thing kept telling us that it can't find the diskette-drive. The cable from the main unit to the diskette-drive had been cut in half and two white wires had been added to the middle of it (by who and why, God only knows), so we took it off and my sister linked the two cable ends to each other. While she was taking some of the covering off of the little wires, she muttered "this looked much easier on TV" to which I replied "surely you mean in physics class!?" XD

Gah, the geekdom. I actually joined the ET geeks forum yesterday and read through all the old postings... It must have rubbed off on me. :P

Stuff of today:

Quoth my newest cool awesome person to know:
"We are like a collective intelligence. Without the intelligence part."
Heh <3

Then also I'd like to share a fun thing I did with my sister. We fixed our old Commodore 64! It's in my room, plugged to the tv (the legendary tv that hosted Son-Son). So far we're just re-discovering old games we used to play ages ago, but in the manuals I've noticed mention of possible visual arty -stuff too, which sounds interesting. So I'll be faffing around with that alot. :B

I wanted to share this story that [Hedda] told a long time ago somewhere (Damn I love reading old forums).

But one late night when there was only two of my friends and one other guy in the other end of the 10 rooms with computers they build a script that logged into the computers one by one and turned on the screen and made it go "beep". So it become a big wave of beeps that travelled from room to room.

The other guy came running to them and said "Was it you that did that???" ;-)

So what is a Man Thing, our special reported [ally] sheds light on the issue:

"I reckon it's a thing men have and women don't otherwise it would just be a thing."

You know I have a fixation with all things nuclear, right? Nuclear power, nuclear war, nuclear winter, nuclear waste... it all interests me. Because it's invisible and so dangerous. It's an ugly malevolent beast, and I find it beautiful. I love to read about it all. Now I've been reading Arthur Koestler's "Ghost in the machine" for a very long time, and if you know the book, it prattles on all over all possible subjects. And now, near the end, it has reached the nuclear bomb. The author paints horror images of nuclear war, saying it is only a matter of time. And I tell you, if I had the control over this nuclear power, I'd detonate it, right now. Just to make it happen. Just so it wouldn't be a war-effort that brought about the destruction of the old world. I say old world, because I'm fairly certain a new world will emerge from it all.

I also find myself agreeing more and more with F. T. Marinetti (which makes me question my sanity).

The fact is that the futurists had a point (with the downside that they all happened to be fascists :/)

In my degree show I had a note that read "I'm in the unfortunate position of being a futurist stuck in the future" - and now I mean it.

Today's YouTube find (you betcha it's Barenaked Ladies!)

Now you know that I mostly hate all that yaoi-crap, but... Did you spot the hottest thing ever? (I actually paused the vid, screen dumped and saved on my network hard-drive :9)

I love the fact that the guys in BNL aren't typically attractive men - it makes me feel happy that I love them so much even though they are very normal-looking. It's so easy to love Nirvana for example, when the lead singer is/was t3h sex.
*ish happy with this observation*

Today's ominous scene by [Viking] -quote:

"Hello little girl! Are your parents home?"

"They're in the attic. Sleeping."

"Oh, perhaps I should come by later?"

"No, they'll still be sleeping in the attic."

Today's philosophical quote by [Viking]:
"Is anyone ever prepared to have their boggle blasted?"

Today I walked down the corridor in uni and underneath the stairs that lead to the office of a teacher of mine I stopped and knew that he was in (he's supposed to be on holiday). Then later I walked past again and he came out of his office. And I knew because I recognised his smell in the corridor. >_> That is scary, because I try very hard to not obsess over him. <_<

Art project underway that kind of needs participation from all you people! :D It involves you receiving a free piece of typographical art. :3 I'll elaborate at the end of next week or something like that.
