I'm back

2008-09-30T13:52:39Z

Sort of.

I think I spoke about being sick a while ago and doctors couldn't work it out. But, now they have.

It's not curable but it is treatable, all that will do though is prolong it. And do you really think I'm into prolonging shit?

Anyhow, hi LJ people! I'm off to bed.

Hey, The Haunted, Slayer called and your license on their riffs is due to expire. You can either start to write your own riffs or renew the license for 3 years.

Also, Take That called and they want Robbie back.

Alright, listen up, Fuckheads

I've just been reading through some people's journals and the comments about Steve Irwin make me sick.

I was never a huge fan of Steve, and to be honest, he fucking annoyed me a lot of the time.

However, that doesnt deny the fact he did an absolute shitload for this country as a whole. He gave shitloads of $ in research grants to other zoos worldwide and to animal welfare societies. He gave a load of kids an even better education as he wasnt afraid to get in there and get close to the animals and show them what it was all about. Kids could watch his show and actually see stuff they'd only read about in school books, and here was Steve with a croc on the camera showing people all about them.

He did a shitload for tourism and created a lot of jobs. Even giving people a go at his zoo that had no previous knowledge but just wanted to be involved. He never asked for certificates etc, but if they genuinely loved being part of it he gave them jobs. Do you know how hard it is to get into that kind of industry? So here are these people, trying to break into the industry, and Steve sweeps them up, gives them jobs... so when they go for tests, licenses etc they can say "Yup, I worked with Steve Irwin" and they're on there way to becoming great in their chosen field. Why? Because Steve was a nice guy who cared about other people. More people could be like him.

As for tourism I know a shitload of Americans and Brits who came to this country, purely to see Steve's zoo. How is that a bad thing? Steve even went to the USA and took part in Jay Leno, Letterman etc just to show our wildlife etc. Not because he wanted fame, but because he was genuinely interested in teaching people.

This ismt just like a normal celebrity dying, this is about a guy who cared so much about other people and our wildlife and just everyone in general dying.

Hate him if you want, but stop fucking giving him shit over it. I'm sure he's done more than you ever could, or would even attempt to do.

And to make fun of me for being Australian because Steve is dead? Fuck you.

I was just reading an article on the dangers of heavy drinking and some of the results scared the shit out of me. So, I swear right here and now, after tonight, no more fucking reading!

Well, due to my boss fucking up the contract I have had my net cut off at home.

I have absolutely no money whatsoever and it will take a month til its even possible to get an interview with Centrelink to see if I can get money some other way.

I'm about to head off and buy noodles.

Oh, and I'm in a net cafe at the moment.

Good thing? I have more time for music. Bad thing? I havent been in the mood.

I had an interview at the Salvation Army this morning. I was talking to a friend in Centrelink and he said Salvation Army shouldnt have cut me off for 6 months, thats common policy. They leave you registered with Centrelink in case you need money or the job falls through. Salvation Army cut me off before I had even got to 1 week of work.

So, I let them have it and they were upset. I told them they should have waited the 6 months and was pissed they didnt. Because, if they had waited as they were supposed to, I wouldnt be in this position. I asked since it was their fuckup if they could call Centrelink and rectify it. They said no.

So, now I'm sitting here looking for part time work in the mean time. Sorry if there is double-spaces in this entry but this keyboard is absolutely shit and the space bar keeps falling... it has no springs... I'm trying to hold it up with one hand while typing with the other. I'll be fucked if I'm going to keep going back and fixing everything.

countessa_rose , I tried making you a mod for Fetishgoths but you have to join the community first.

It's Mewlly's birthday in just over a week and I cant afford to get her anything at the moment.

Also, a word of warning, dont shop at Waterfront Records. I ordered a CD for her and its been a few weeks and it hasnt turned up. They wont even answer my emails, so to say I'm pissed is an understatement. I may have to just go get it from Utopia and t ry to get my credit card refunded.

So, dont expect to see me on for at least a week or two.

A tip for everyone on my LJ list... and anyone else who stumbles across this.

If you're using a pirated copy of XP and would like to continue running it then do NOT download any updates claiming to be "genuine advantage" or whatever its called.

MS put them out to see who had a legit copy. The first few just nagged you, the new ones lock down your computer.

So, in the interest of using it, do NOT download those updates.

If any of you Americans know the whereabouts of one William Hamlet Hunt, please contact the New Orleans Police.

If you see this man dont hesitate to contact the police. He is being sought for the bashing of a woman at Convergence in NOLA.

He may have even fled NOLA, but if you know him or know where he is...

Well, my leg is infected. I can barely walk.

On the weekend the back of my leg was tingling and I had to sit down often, but it turns out some of the chemicals got into my bloodstream due to the slash on my leg from work. I slashed it while standing in the booth. The pond was on a big roller rack we use to spin them. It slipped and came down on my leg. I jumped back but not quick enough and the edge of the rack slashed through my security suit, my army pants and straight into my leg. So, here I am hopping around with a slashed and bleeding leg and I look behind me and Dave was looking at me weird and I had my mask on so I couldnt take it off at that time and had to gesture what was wrong... he just grinned, gave me a nod and went back to work... thanks Dave. In his defence though, there's no way he could know what was up with my signals... and it wasnt exactly bad at the time so I didnt worry about it and kept working... I had to, you leave the booth with the boss around and... yeah, you wont last too long.

So, I've got to go on a course of antibiotics, if that doesnt work... hmmmm... I sure hope I dont need needles, cos that's fucked up :/

Andrew had his day off. He lives in Penrith. I feel really bad about being infected now. He called me up before to ask how I was and I told him and he was like "ahhh ok, cos I drove in here today to get my fist up Stuart's arse for you, but it'll have to wait til you're in here"

The dude drove all the way from Penrith at 4am on his day off, when most people would be sleeping, just to stand up for me and I wasnt even there :/

Just letting you all know my modem blew up so I have no internet. I'm currently at my GF's house and posting from here.

I should have the money soonish for another one... but until then... you'll just have to celebrate my presence.

Just quit being a cunt and leave me the fuck alone, OK?

Avrigus have returned

2005-09-16T02:46:38Z

Anyone who has been following doom metal will have surely heard of Avrigus, a graceful band comprised of Judy Chiara and Simon Gruer (ex-Cruciform). Avrigus have gained worldwide respect for their music despite no live shows at all and relying purely on the music to sell itself. They are a doom band, yet sound like no other.

Due to label problems they had laid dormant until now. They are back on track and working on new material.

Avrigus would like to invite you to join their forums to be kept up to date and to discuss their career, their music and yourselves, the fans.

http://forum.avrigus.com/

The Secret Kingdom

2005-09-14T09:31:11Z

Some of you already know that Avrigus got ripped off by their record label, I've also told a lot of you not to buy the album as Simon has requested people only download it. They dont want the label getting money off their hard work.

Today Simon linked to a torrent file I created for the album The Secret Kingdom.

If you want to download the album head to http://www.avrigus.com/ and get the torrent file. I'm hosting it on my computer so it wont be super-fast or anything, but it'll still be faster than dialup.

Also, if any of you wanted a CD of it just ask, I'm more than happy to run off CDs for anyone as long as you cover postage or whatnot.

Uh oh

Way to go, terrorists. Now you pushed her too far. You brought this shit upon yourselves.

Two Middle East mothers are sitting in the cafe chatting over a pint of goat's milk.

The older of the mothers pulls her bag out and starts flipping through pictures and they start reminiscing.

"This is my oldest son Mohammed. He's 24 years old now"
"Yes, I remember him as a baby" says the other mother cheerfully.
"He's a martyr now, though" mum confides.
"Oh, so sad dear," says the other.

"And this is my second son Kalid. He's 21."
"Oh, I remember him," says the other happily, "he had such curly hair when he was born."
"He's a martyr, too," says mum quietly.
"Oh gracious me," says the other.

"And this is my third son. My baby. My beautiful Ahmed. He's 18," she whispers.
"Yes," says the friend enthusiastically. "I remember when he first started school."
"He's a martyr, also" says mum, with tears in her eyes.

After a pause and a deep sigh, the second Muslim mother looks wistfully at the photographs and says...

"They blow up so fast, don't they?"
