5 out of 7 ain't bad

As meatloaf put it, 2 out of 3 ain't bad. Ofcourse he was talking about girls, in my case I talk about the number of nights I've finished. That leaves me with 2 (tonight and tomorrow) and man I just can't wait for this weekend and new year!
This morning at around 6 I thought I'd manage to rest after working nonstop from 9pm the evening before, but then all that went down the drain when a very ill person came in to A&E, requiring two and a half hours of resuscitation and stuff. *sigh*
Hope everyone out there is OK. Sorry G-D is becoming dull, but real life sometimes takes it's toll on the much more superior virtual life.

Peace

So THAT'S what it is!

Man... woke up today around 17:30, got up to a TON of dishes that needed washing. Did that, then took the TON of rubbish out to the skip at last. Finally thought it would be good to have some "ASDA american fried chicken and chips", which needed 1/2 an hour in the oven.
Opened the oven and what do I find there? a TWO MONTH OLD half lasagne that was in a WELL ADVANCED decomposition stage!
The whiff was overwhelming! the whole flat instantly stank of rot, the oven was rendered invalid for at least a week, and I'm currently typing this with my eyes watering cos of the damn pong!
The funny thing is, for a few weeks every now and then I would smell something rotting in the flat but had no clue what it was. I looked all over the place for dropped pizza/dead rodents etc but still nothing! I just gave up on it and thought it was just me. But there you have it, that smell was non other than lasagne ala fungus.

Now I wonder if I can stomach the roast dinner I just microwaved... here's hoping!

Not-So-Good-Delicious!

Hi! It's you! GO AWAY

Not really sure why the title of this post is at it is. Any gamer worth their salt should recognise the quote from the cult classic, the Neverhood.
Anyhow, just wanted to update good delicious briefly. First and foremost a big MERRY XMAS to everyone out there. Hope things are much better next x-mas :)
I'm lucky enough to be working 7 nights (started yesterday, finishes new year's eve!), so my rhythm is going to be all topsy turvy until next year!
The mac is ok, the more I use it the more I realise how I was foolish in the past not to get my hands on one earlier. The system is absolutely gorgeous, and it's just how a computer should be.
And I guess that's it. There's a lot of gaming news and other stuff that I really should be putting here, but it's getting late now (20:40) and work starts at 21:00....

Merry X-mas y'all.

You're NOT going to believe this

OK OK, sit down and be calm. Relax and take a deep breath.
I'm currently posting this from my new laptop! What's so shocking about that I hear you say? Well, this laptop happens to be a Powerbook 17". Which is, erm, ahem, made by.... APPLE!
Yes, your eyes don't fool you, the SoB has switched platfoms (well my main PC is still IBM + Windows)! To be honest, I'm still getting used to Mac OS X. It feels great to work with and literally drips with the style apple are really famous for. But being a windows whore for the last 9 years makes it a bit difficult to get used to something else. Add to that the fact that macs don't have a right mouse button, and we've got a problem Houston.
But still, the laptop itself is a piece of beauty. It's very light weight (about 3kg) and thin, with a big 17" screen and a slot loading (aka no tray) DVD burner superdrive. It also has MAC OS X (Panther) with the iLIFE suite installed.
A great thing about the system is that it's based on *nix so very stable and no viruses. Also, it sets itself up to be compatible with your existing network (in my case it seamlessly connected to my windows wireless network hassle free, and can read shared files from windows pc, and ofcourse use wireless internet).
For the time being, I'm happy. Let's see what happens in a week or so once I've calmed down :)

Till then, Good-mac-delicious!

It's here!

After going through some sort of madness and actually cancelling my pre-order for the nintendo ds, I actually managed to get my hands on one of these beauties (I had to ask a friend going to malasia to get me one and she had a rough time getting her hands on one cos they were all selling out!)
Anyhow, this shit is hot!! it's got dual screens and touchscreen, plus some really cool processors that can juggle around 3d images (it's like a portable n64 I guess!)

all in all a great system, I'll come back later with more details!

NDS

Fanboy? NO!

Seems like it's been a while since I've updated good delicious. Life takes it's toll sometimes and work is getting too busy these days! oh and ofcourse there's the small matter of the life absorbing games recently out (half life 2 anyone? Metroid Prime Echoes, Paper Mario, Prince of Persia 2) Man I just don't know what to do next :)
In other news, I just found a video that would put a smile on anyone that knows who mario is (everyone!). Some japanese nut (fanboy!) has replicated the mario theme AND sound effects on an electronic guitar! It's brilliant stuff, and no explanation will do this video justice.
Point your browsers over to http://media.ebaumsworld.com/index.php?e=marioguitar.wmv and be amazed!
Till later y'all.
