Gamers?

Prepare to cry. ...Or maybe not quite cry but this still BLOWS.

...

sorry allen about before, my internet connection just died and i had no way of getting it back. i dont know why it is working now.... and how many times must i say this? YouTube. Very. Bad. I don't mind seeing a link to a video, but when the page wont even load and is probably a good contributor to my internet sucking.... bad. fatty bad even. Adam - Uh, when WAS the last time you said that?... Might've been in MSN somewhere but I probably overlooked it. I'm sure you have said it at some point but I don't and haven't remembered that at all so you can't have said it enough... or rather, made a big enough deal about it. Also, what's up with the dots as a subject line thing? So boring. Peter - well then consider it made a big deal now. ellipsis? it makes sense as a title, to me.

Watch out for those tempo changes, man.

'Cause when we go under the second bridge this shit TAKES OFF .

Dude!

I have sound now... somehow it magically is working again. wii... Ok, so Adam, here is me 'blogging it up' I am online RIGHT NOW. Not bnet though, i have msn running, that seems to consume most of this computer's ability to.... well do anything really. it took upwards of a few minutes to even open the program.... now that I have sound I want to go check out that first song listed at www.purevolume.com/showbread but dont you go there, because you dont like that music. their new album in stores august 1st!!!! I am excited. I also need to find some time off work to go to the university before then... transcript stuff... man it has been a while since ive played gamecube. my skills are probably lacking right now.... hopef on saturday or sunday i will be able to Smash a bit. So i am home alone i think for most of the night, made myself some KD, good stuff along with Pepsi. and ice cream. well.... hmmm, I am bored right now. chattin with Sam, none of you guys are on right now.......

....

why did I NOT think of this sooner? Maybe cuz this isn't my computer?? I have battlenet up and runnin. I can still connect to us east server, ill probably be on most days around 9 o'clock your time. maybe sooner, maybe later. Ill probably just check bnet to see if you guys are on and if not ill leave right away. or we could schedule some times for us to all be there and stomp a few comps. ps I haven't heard from Allen for a long time, is he still around? When is he and Dan moving up to Waterloo? also, how can i get my speakers to work? they are on and turned up but nothing comes out, not for any program. this is Windows ME. Sucky sucky OS, IMO. I also used web messenger today when i was at the UofC, but only Adam and Killby were online. Adam didn't respond, then he signed off, and I didn't talk to Alex. oh well. o.0 dang these old dutch people (my landlords) really like to talk to themselves and agree with themselves. Fred reminds me of Kyle Fitzpatrick, the way he ...

The Claymatrix

Sam - Also Yes. BUT: You forgot the subtitle! WHEN FREEWAY DRIVING GOES WRONG! Peter - dang I never knew that turned out so well. Sweet stuff.

Don't you know who I am?!

Sam - Simply... Yes.

Whoa, just whoa.

These are chalk drawings on flat concrete. Sam - Gotta admit, that is pretty funky.

FYI

Just so you know Peter, everyone else is camping and won't be back until Thursday, and probably won't be cognitive until Friday. Peter - dang, well oh well. I wish I could go camping [/full time job] I wont be very cognitive until september... 20th or so. I only worked 10 hours today :)

Must be Santa

Santa Clause. I want YOU to know that I am tired. I worked 12 hours today in airtight containments. Dang am I tired. Sleep time for Tim. Thats me. Dan, remember this. If you ever want to move somewhere. Outside is great. Nothing is safer than the troposphere. Calgary is a beautiful city.

ADAM'S POST

WOO, it's SO my post! I broke Peter's posting streak haha haha haha. So this isn't something I found, Sam showed it to me, then I was like laughing my head off at it. Good ol' Weebl. Woot for camping this Monday! Here's hoping it's a lot of fun, and I know it will be. So. Any thoughts on this matter? Edit: This is what that remided me of. Be careful with that one; it's VERY addictive. The little guy has like this huge arsenal of weapons to take you out with, and he's super fast. All you can do is rack up the points. I only had the patience to reach 2516, how's about yous? Edit again: Hey, Allen! SNAKES ON A PLANE Peter - I sucked at that cursor game. Web messenger sucks, it doesn't work on this computer.

hehehe

I started all of the last 6 posts. Sam - One, I wasn't calling you a fool, I was calling DAN a fool. Two, I'm taking the Army's trade specific course for Armoured Recce soldiers. Dan - Alright, I guess that was a LIE on my part. I guess I wasn't thinking too well since I wrote that David had a job before writing that... Oh well.

none

You guys suck. Nobody has posted for 2 days. I'll update again now and keep checking... maybe for a few more days... I got certified today. Passed the exam, now I am a government certified asbestos abatement worker. Sounds impressive eh? I got a job placement for monday, at one of the hostipals in Calgary. That will be exciting, get me some hands on experience building containments, decontaminating asbestos containing areas, all suited up in the impermeable polypropylene coveralls and NIOSH regulated P100 half-mask respirators. And tons of other crazy terminology. I will be in a Low Risk environment removing chrysotile vinyl asbestos floor tiles. Dang I learned tons in the last two days. Craziness. Not everybody can tell youall about the different types of asbestos, why it is dangerous where it is dangerous to, whaty it can cause, and how to remove it safely. But I can. Anyway, enough about my job, jeorb? job. I laid the smack down on my wallet; I have small change less than 2 doll...

Work reloaded

Ok I figure Adam will get a kick out of that 'reloaded' thing ... ANYWay after my interview this mornin... I am so in. $14/hour and I am certified in 2 days. I figured out a bit more; I demolish insides of buildings in order to safely remove carcinogenic asbestos. Thats right. I work with killer cancer-causing stuff. I need to buy myself some good steel toed boots and maybe some pants cuz my parents haven't shipped my stuff out yet... but I am now employed. yay! I may just have myself a party in my honour. ps Dang those boots are expensive, but I had no choice. I start training tomorrow for an 8.5 hour day. Get up at 6:00 for the bus. ugh. oh well, when i do start working I rake in the $$ mehopes. My fluency with Calgary Transit increases daily... soon I won't need to take my map everywhere with me... but them skeedurs (mosquitos?) are everywhere, I probably have more bites than Sam showed off in chem so often. I find that if you don't scratch them at all the poiso...

Work!

Adam can have 49 points hehe..... Anyway, I got a call today; tomorrow I go for an interview for a specialised demolition service where get 2 days of training and get certified... $14/hr minimum they said - if I get through the interview.... I didn't bring a suit with me or anything, so I will have to look as nice as possible with what I have. If this falls through Ithink I could get work at the local Christian Bookstore who are hiring full time. That would be pretty sweet. But nothing is yet set in stone. So I'll tell you later whats worked out... Sam - Heeeeey, good to hear that you made it ok, sorry I didn't write earlier, was in Toronto until Sunday. Good luck with the work, demolition is always fun. Peter - yea demolition with ASBESTOS.

Bus passes

Yes Adam, I know that Western includes those in tuition, but my guess is that your tuition is much higher than mine. This year I pay $5100 for a full course load. Anyway, fronting $70 a month is a lot cheaper than car insurance would be. On monday I go all out on the telephone and handin out resumes.... ($14/hour for demolition... !!!!!) There are lots of jobs in Calgary that will pay well. The only question is do I have what I will need (steel toed boots etc) Once I find myself a job though, it will be awesome cuz then I will know when I don't work and I can pop on over to Ken's place; he said it could become another home for me should I need a break from my current house.... and I will inevitably visit my old friends; hopeF just ring their doorbell and have them gawk at my presence if the recognise me... in any event I am pumped. Oh and Ken has msn, so I may be on occasionally though it will likely be later; 11:00 or so for you guys considering the time lapse. It is 10:40 her...
