The Crazy Shit People Do (NSFW)

So, last week when we were all hanging out, Katie told me about this pretty unbelievable thing. It was so unbelievable, that I made her look it up on the spot so that I can see it. Apparently, some guy got his entire penis, and both testicles, tattooed to look like a dragon. Honestly, what the fuck was this guy thinking? That had to be the most painful thing to EVER happen to him. How high is his tolerance for pain. I would have been sitting in the tattoo chair crying like a little baby that hasn’t eaten. Anyway, this is pretty disturbing, so I won’t put it on the main page. If you want to see the actual picture…which believe me is pretty incredible at the same time as completely disturbing and totally disgusting….click the link.

Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins (Trailer)

I just found this teaser trailer for the new Terminator movie. Check it out. It has Christian Bale playing John Connor, and will take place in the future with the human race directly against the robotic army of Skynet. Terminator Salvation is set to be released on May 22, 2009. I have heard rumors that there will be a total of three more Terminator movies, all starring Christian Bale as John Connor, but who really knows.

As you guys all know…I am a huge Christian Bale fan, and will watch any move that he is in….especially something like this. Hopefully it doesn’t suck.

28 Hours In Two Days

Yes, you did absolutely read that correctly. I know you probably don’t really know what it means yet, but just know that once you read this…you will be asking yourself “What the fuck was he thinking??”. Between Friday and Saturday, I worked 28 hours. I went into work at 6am on Friday, and didn’t get out until 7:30 that night (13.5 hours). Then, I went into work at 7am on Saturday, and didn’t walk out until 9:30pm Saturday night (14.5 hours). Now, if you think about it, and you add that up, we’re talking about 28 hours in the office between Friday and Saturday. Even worse, Saturday is my day off, and I only got a one day weekend this week. Go ahead and ask it….”What the fuck was I thinking?”. I know that’s what you were thinking, because I am thinking the exact same thing. These jobs that control our lives are terrible. There is never any personal time for people that work that much. It’s ridiculous.

Seriously, I didn’t feel like doing ANYTHING Saturday night when I got off work. I took a shower, Katie and I went and got some food, and then we sat down to watch a movie and passed out on the couch. Talk about an overly eventful day. At least I got to do a little partying on Friday night. Katie drove me home from work Friday night, and we started drinking. Made it through 45 minutes of the power hour, and then went to downtown Boulder to meet up with some people we work with for some drinks. A bunch of shots later, and the next thing I know its 2:30am and Katie and KB are dropping me off at home. Fell asleep around 3:30, and woke up at 6:30. Now, if you seriously think about it. I was hungover, got three hours of sleep, and worked for 14.5 hours. That makes it even worse. Seriously, what the hell were we thinking when we went into work on Saturday morning. SHIT!!! Good news is, we called my boss and left him a VM saying he owed us BIG for everything we did on Saturday while his phone was turned off. Yippay for us. He better hook us up big time for all this garbage we took over the weekend.

Anyway, on happier notes, J Dizzle is in Florida for the week, and I have been talking with him over text messages for the last few days. He seems to be having fun with Marci out there, and is meeting the family and all her friends. Go J, you da man! He should be back on this upcoming Friday night/Saturday morning. I am heading down to Colorado Springs this weekend for his birthday. Heading down on Saturday and hanging out until after Tuesday when I go to my doctors appointment. Then heading back up to Broomfield to get back to work on Wednesday. Should be a good time. Birthday time for J, and that means a lot of drinks for all of us…and shots for him. Haha.

Well, I’ll update you guys later on throughout the week….hopefully. If I am too tired, I probably won’t end up getting to it, but I’ll try. I swear it.

Everything Is Gonna Be All Right

Have you ever had a friend that you thought you could trust, and depend on, and then realized all of a sudden that you couldn’t? I just realized one of my friends is fairly undependable. Always looking out for themselves in every aspect. Every time they do something for you, there always appears to be an ultimatum that works out for them in the long run. Talk about a stressful friendship. When somebody you thought was a good friend and would be there for you ends up disappointing you, it feels like you’ve been stabbed in the back, it’s quite possibly one of the worst feelings in the world. Okay, maybe stabbed in the back is the wrong word for that situation, but you know what I mean, right? I’m not really sure what to do about the situation. I’ve been so stressed out lately that I’ve probably been digging that knife deeper into myself without even knowing it. It seems like some of my friends are abandoning me just because I’ve had a rough couple weeks, and haven’t been my normal chipper self. Not really sure what to do about that, but so far today has been better. Been rockin’ out all day to this Bob Marley cd, so that has me feeling a little bit better. Not to mention, I woke up this morning feeling a lot better. Not sure if it’s because it’s my last day of work before the 4th of July weekend, or if it’s because of something else…but so far, today is a good day. I’ve still got that friend that looks out for themselves all the time, but everybody looks out for themselves. Would just be nice to have them look out for somebody else from time to time…ya know!!

Anyways, some friends and I are going to a Rockies game tonight, then some bar hopping. Getting some drinks, and gonna have a good time. Don’t have any set in stone plans for the rest of the weekend, but I know some of my friends are trying to get me to go up to Nebraska with them to go to this lake and hit up some jet skis. Might do that on Saturday…but only if I can get somebody to drive back to Colorado with me when we are done with the jet skiing. I can’t really camp out, plus J Dizzle is going to be up this weekend to party it up on the 4th…gotta hang out with the big brizzle. Haha. I’ll let you know how the weekend goes. So far, it’s looking up!!

UPDATE: The day just went from really good….to really shitty. Seriously in a matter of an hour. Go fuckin’ figure!

Firefox Sets a Guiness World Record

Mozilla Firefox has been the open source browser of choice among many people for a long time. I install it on every system I work on for a friend, and I have it installed on every computer I own. Granted I run Linux at home, and you can’t even get Internet Explorer for Linux, but that doesn’t even really matter. The point is that Firefox has been the only browser in history to have any shot at dethroning Internet Explorer in the browser market. I use it, I love it, and everybody I show it to loves it.

With that note, Firefox 3 was just released. Firefox boasted about it for weeks, and their entire mission was to try and set a new Guiness World Record for the number of downloads in a 24 hour period. Firefox 3 was downloaded 8,002,530 on the day of its release. Yes, that is over eight MILLION downloads in 24 hours. I did contribute, and so far I like Firefox 3. It looks cleaner, and seems to run better. It does take up more memory, but thats to be expected with the improvement of the looks, and the special features they added to it. It’s pretty sweet. Look, I even got my own Download Day flyer :)

Firefox Download Day

Mozilla enthusiasts worldwide drove more than 1.7 million pledges to download Firefox 3 on Download Day, hosted regional download “fests,” and informed more than 43 million people through hosting Download Day affiliate buttons online. The global Mozilla community has been celebrating the historic goal of establishing a Guinness World Record with parties in more than 25 countries, including a 24-hour long download fest celebration called Camp Firefox at Mozilla’s Mountain View headquarters.

That’s pretty amazing. Over 8 million downloads in 24 hours. Those servers must have been going ape shit all day in order to push out downloads like that. Good stuff.

My Anti Pouch Campaign

So, at work all the guys I work with have this running joke. “Long Live Pouch!”. We have determined the pouch is the stomach, and everybody has a pouch…at least everybody has a little one. My pouch is a little bigger than some, and smaller than others. Well, as of yesterday, I have started my ‘Anti Pouch Campaign’. Seriously, yesterday I ate a half a salad for lunch, went running for 20 minutes after work, and then after my run I went and sat in the sauna for like 15 minutes. It was awesome. I’m not really sure how much weight I lost, but I know how much I weighed in at….which is kind of high so I’m not going to post it here. I will keep you updated on the results of the ‘Anti Pouch Campaign’, and anybody that wants to join in on the fun…let me know and we can work out a schedule and exchange results. It should be a pretty good time…as long as I can stick with it. One day at a time though….thats my current philosophy. Muahaha :P

In other news, we went to Wichita, KS for the weekend. This guy we work with, Snarf, was getting married to his high school sweetheart, so on Thursday at lunch, Grant, Katie and myself decided we were going to pile into the Cadillac and drive out to Wichita. We got another guy we work with to head out with us, and we left Friday night at about 8pm. We showed up in Wichita at about 5:30am Saturday morning, went to the wedding at 2pm Saturday, and then headed back on Sunday. It was awesome. Snarf was completely surprised that we made the trip out there. We partied hard with him Saturday night, and then hit the road again on Sunday. Took us just about 8 hours to make it back to Colorado, and my car was pretty disgusting by the time we got back. Apparently, there are a lot of bugs that hit your car when you are going 90 mph down the highway. Who woulda thought!? :P Check out my MySpace/Facebook in the next couple days for pics/videos of the trip, and the wedding. It was a pretty good time, and we definitely had fun doing it.

LONG LIVE POUCH!!!

The Website Is Down (Video)

This is honestly one of the funniest videos I have EVER seen. Any IT person, especially system administrators, and help desk support people, will find this hysterical. It starts off kind of slow, but by the end you should be crying you are laughing so hard. Freaking Awesome!!

He’s Off

So, Brahma headed out today to head back out to the Middle East. He signed another contract with ITT to head out to Afghanistan this time. Everybody wish him safe travels as he heads out for another year of misery and hell with the company from Satan’s backdoor. All right, that might be a little harsh, but they didn’t do me right, they didn’t do Joe right, they didn’t do Jeremy right, and they didn’t do Grant right…so I’m not very happy with them. And to think I was willing to go back out there to work with the TNOSC under them. Not gonna happen anymore. Turns out the TNOSC doesn’t get to do any log analysis. Anyways, Brahma should be keeping his blog updated as he is out there…as long as the TNOSC, and the Afghan System Administrators don’t block the website. Let’s all hope they don’t cuz I love reading that kids blog posts. Freaking awesome. Haha

As far as my attempts to get back out to the Middle East go, I did apply for a job with Northrop Grumman out there, but I got denied. Oh well. It would have been nice to go back out to Kuwait and make some booku bucks, but I guess I’m not really qualified to do that job. I am going to hang out here for another couple months, try to get some more credentials, and the GCIA cert, under my belt and see if thats enough for them then…pending the job is still available on the NGC Careers website. I’ll let you all know how that turns out.

As far as other things go, I have been laying kinda low the last couple weeks. I was on call last weekend, and have been on call every night this week, except Tuesday night, so I should be able to party pretty hard this weekend. We have some pretty big plans, that I can’t really go into right now. I will tell you all about it Sunday or Monday, but it’s going to be AWESOME! Make sure to check back with me sometime in the near future so that you can read all about it…and maybe even see some pictures. Also, check out my MySpace page to check out some pictures of the last few weekends when we did actually all get together and party. I have some pictures of Grant’s birthday weekend, the UFC fight that weekend, and then the next weekend which was Katie’s birthday. We partied pretty hard those two weeks, so lets hope we can do it again here this weekend. Haha.

All right. Time to get back to work. I’ve been writing this for a little bit, and its going to post at noon. Don’t forget to head out to Brahma’s site and show him some love. The guys is a trooper for suffering another year out there…and this time in Afghanistan. Crazy guy. We love you Brahma, and make sure to come back to us in one piece, my Samoan brotha!! :P
