Journal Journal: Why windows is so good 6

Windows is full of musical fun, with colourful, blinking icons that pop up messages and talk as the user presses the keys! Choose three different themes and user can hear notes, full tunes, or a chorus of sounds. In each setting, the cheerful buttons come to life with bright colours and even guide the user along! Requires 3 GB HDD (not included).

Journal Journal: ITT: Feeds from Iraq & such

Post any cool stuff relating to C-Band/Ku-Band wildfeed/uplink/live transmissions relating to Iraq, or anything cool seen on any of the middle-eastern (or Iraq TV itself) channels. Let all the LSD owners know what they're missing!

Journal Journal: Slashdot Zoo 1

Just adjusted my foes list. Trimmed out the reformed users, added some new ones.

Hope everyone else gets some time to do this! Then the Friend-of-Friend and Friend-of-Foe modifiers could be raised. :-)

Journal Journal: Just call 1-800-F**K-UPS 7

Update (feb 18, 2k3): IT MADE IT! My package made it. It was dirtier than a New York taxicab floormat, but it made it!

Journal Journal: UPS spells F-U-N!

Want to ship dumber, lamer, and slower? Click here to learn more!

Man those UPS guys are getting cheezier by the miunte. It's gonna take them 'till Monday to ship an overnight package from Quebec to Ontario that was sent off on Thursday. And they say I'll get a refund... sorta hard when shipping was included already!

I think I'll change my middle name to "NO-UPS" from now on when I get things shipped.

Journal Journal: H-1B Visas in the US 7

Unfortuantely, I'd have liked to comment on this journal entry made by one of my friends/fans, but they didn't enable comments.

So, I'll leave my take on the issue here, and enable comments so we can stir up some healthy discussion on the topic.

Journal Journal: WOW! I can't believe it wasn't homer! 1

After the last set of writers totally stank up "Homer's Adventures", or The Show Formerly Known as The Simpsons I decided to give it one last try after having not watched it for 6 or 7 months.

User Journal

Journal Journal: Hmmm... 2

Well... I'm just in the process of cleaning up a client's computer infected by klez, dupator, opaserv, bugbear, and magistr. Of course, the client will be charged $100 for this service, since I've spent hours fighting these various viruses (there may be more... that's just how many I've been able to identify) which are each fighting each other.

So, I found a great deal on McAfee Antivirus 6.0 for the guy. $0.97! Can you believe that! And it isn't even hot! Wow...

Journal Journal: Telephone recording question... 1

Well, when I get bored I like to read things like the criminal code. Yes, that makes me more bored. That way I fall asleep faster so that the next day rolls about and (hopefully) has something more interesting in store.

So, here's my question:

What're the rules on recording phone conversations in Ontario, Canada?

It's funny.  Laugh.

Journal Journal: Funny moments on the web 2

So I'm watching Insomniac With David Attel on TV again, and they flash these cool underpants that say "I love to fart" on them.

Well, my websurfing radar went off at that point, and I just had to see where that would lead me.

Well, it turns out that the "related newsgroups" feature of deja is more truthful that one could be lead to believe.

Journal Journal: Bell Canada's UGLY website 2

Ugggh... Bell Canada actually has popup advertising on their site. Not for other companies, mind you, just for their own stuff. Popups that ask you to buy cell phones, participate in some sort of sweepstakes, etc, etc.
