    yes, time to go home. it's time to run for the bus.

    i'm so tired i don't feel like running for the bus.

    i never moved closer to work cuz this was a temp job. 11 years later is still the reason.


    i want to see Metallica in London.


    the bus is coming in 14 minutes. iz10 minutes to walk to the bus stop if no one chats me up on the way.

    Morning. It is a dark and stormy night outside my window just before dawn. Rain three days in a row is extraordinary but welcome :)

    ...I don't find Guinness that far down on the bitter scale though. Some f the IPA's I've had are so hoppy one would have to extend the bitter end of the scale down about two to three times as far if Guinness is considered that bitter.

    I bet some interesting plants will be sprouting up soon. I know they don't last long, though.

    It's all subjective. Everyone experiences sight and smell and taste differently. I don't care for beer, so it's all awful to me. I will admit that I have only tasted a couple of different brands, but I disliked them equally. No sense trying any more of them.

    ...well "Doomsday +1" still using XP.

    Been reading different reports, articles, & such and realise as long as I continue to be careful as I have been, don't use IE, make sure my AV and FF are up to date with the latest plugins and utilities (like NoScript, Adblock, Popup blocker etc), I should be OK for a while.


    Though if M$ bought me a new notebook with the latest Office suite software (not just a 60 day demo) on it I wouldn't turn it down.

    ...if had Win7 as the OS I'd like that even more.

    ...that's understandable. Maybe they don't have the overly "hoppy" ales like we have here. Of course her in the states it's customary to take something good, and do it to the extreme. For example Widmer's (a local craft brewer here) signature brew called "Hefeweizen" is so cloudy it looks like a milkshake. A true German "Hefe" is slightly cloudy but still translucent. Same for IPAs, many made here are beyond the IBU (International Bittering Units) ratings of their British brewed counterparts. Even some of the "Bitters" brewed here can rival the hoppiness of an English made IPA.


    For me when people talk about "taste" in cigarettes I go "huh?". The times I tried it, I it found it about as enjoyable as doing deep breathing exercises while standing immediately downwind of a building engulfed in flames.

    Here in the states? Where do you think I live? I'm on a different coast, not a different country! :lol: I'm in Massachusetts. I've never been out of the country, not even to Canada. I almost visited Nova Scotia, but couldn't afford it at the time. (can afford it even less now)

    Yeah, I tried cigarettes when in 9th grade. I thought it was stupid so quit pretty quick. Plus, I had asthma. Oddly, pot never gave me problems, but cigarette smoke in the same room started up my asthma attacks.

    ...I know.

    I often use that when discussing how we do things and often go overboard about them compared to the rest of the world, even when it comes to something simple like brewing.

    Actually we out here in the Northwest are almost forgotten about many times (almost making us feel like a foreign nation) because of that big state to the south of us where they make films, television programmes, and all sorts of news headlines.

    All this talk of Grey makes me think of African Greys. Wonder if there is a good African Gray for DS or Poser?

    Well, the Great Northwest is the home of one of the best known software companies in the world...Microsoft. I'd love to visit the area some day. Wouldn't want to live there, though.

    how come lenses are found but pictures come out as squares?

    I think the sensors inside a camera are rectangle in shape? 4:3 aspect ratio. I've seen cameras that have a rectangle "frame" over the round lens.

    The focal plane has always been rectangular because the media under it - glass, celluloid etc - is rectangular. If the media was round we would be seeing all the errors created by light bouncing in a round lens at its edges :)

    Weather here has been in the 60s the past couple of days, and nice and sunny. I hope it stays that way for a while, because I've had enough temps in the 30s and rain.
