And here's what we got:
Alright, so a post at 11:30 pm on the day you say you’re going to post still counts right? Regardless, here we are. My only defense is that I was no where near a computer for the time required to actually put something together. I’ll make it up to any/everyone that actually reads this.
Anyways, todays little post is a little bit of a bitch. That is to say that I am bitching about something that to this day manages to blow my mind.
Seriously, it’s been around longer than we have. We have developed wheel-drives, tires, break-styles, wiper-blades, anti-freezing, self-heating, Pi-calculating cars. So despite our advances against the frozen flecks of water still manage to turn everyone into drooling, knuckle-dragging morons whos only response to having to drive in the stuff is to go under twenty km at any given time. For those out there still using the imperial system, that’s roughly 12.4 miles per hour.
Yet another Doctor Who new series under my belt, and my first with the newest companion, Martha. Written by Martin Day, this book did well for what it was, but failed at where I was hoping it wouldn’t. As I have stated before and I must state again here, the new series for the most part seems to be plagued with a sense of immense mediocrity. This one, just as the last and the one before that I have read have all felt manufactured, instead of written. They feel more like failed scripts then they do rich stories that are so elaborate that they simply can’t turn into episodes.
The more I try and read what others are saying on the world wide interweb, the more I realize that there are a lot of people out there who are a hell of a lot smarter then myself. Jarkko Laine is one of those people. While looking around his site, I found what is deemed a “popular article“. The title alone got me to read it (Never Work Overtime Again) and after reading it I can honestly say that he nailed it perfectly. Nothing could be done to improve the statements made therein.
This is going to sound like an odd article, as I have yet to write anything on this site remotely reflective or contemplative. I don’t know why, actually but that’s just how it’s turned out. In any case, I was talking to Theresa on Sunday when the topic of my friend Norm moving to Japan. She commented on how she was jealous of those who have “free lives” or those who can just “up and do it.” She also made the comment that not all of them succeed, to which I responded with “those are the ones that lack the strength of character to see it out.”
I finally dragged my ass out of lazy town long enough to get my old wallpapers up. I don’t know how many people still use 1024×768 resolution anymore, but there they are.
Got a new layout goin, though I have yet to swap the googleAds to the new colour scheme.
Later.
