I think winter’s getting to someone…
A few months back, they started making it mandatory in Ottawa that the bus drivers call out the stops as they come to them. Most of them do so, and the others probably won’t be working there for very long. The driver I was stuck with this morning though, oh … Read the rest

Is today the national day of malware or something?
Only explanation I can think of for the reason every call, except maybe 1 or 2, has been a badly messed up system in desperate need of a serious cleaning. If I really wanted to play dirty, I could probably break the single-person record for amount of times reinstalling Windows … Read the rest

Now there’s a random search woops.
I think Google may have had a momentary laps. A Dell technician in India has, apparently, stumbled across this entry while looking for a solution to one of I’m sure a meriad of Sympatico related problems. Particularly surrounding Windows Mail. Now, uh, don’t get me wrong–I like the attention, but … Read the rest

I can haz no webmessengerz?
So apparently they’ve gotten smart and blocked all the good web to IM services out there. I didn’t want a way to kill a lunch hour anyway. Anyone have an alternative to things like meebo, MSN’s web messenger, ebudy and… um, all those? Will pay in… um, praise. ‘Cuz that’s … Read the rest

If you’re stuck on hold, I’m sorry.
Very rarely will I make 2 work related posts in one day. Not because I don’t like my job, but because I’m too lazy. But today–oh, today… there are 23 people currently waiting on hold. One of them, the one I’ll probably get to talk to when my break ends, … Read the rest

So yesterday was apparently senior citizens’ day?
So this week’s work routine started off as per usual at 7:00 or so on Wednesday. And… got very different after that. A guy I work with got shown the door due to cost cutting measures, or so that’s what the rumor mill says anyway. So as of that afternoon, … Read the rest

Britney’s mental? Who knew?
And it’s back to my general rule of it’s not actually fact until it hits the media. So now, I guess we can plaster the official fact category on the fact she’s gone nutso. Granted the requisit grane of sault is required considering it comes from Ms. Walters, but… really, … Read the rest

Bad things happen when you can’t sleep.
For instance, you spend 3 hours before you have to go to work getting rid of a couple hundred spam comments on your blog. Or maybe that’s just me. That’s also a distinct possibility. Spammification sucks.

I hate to say I told you so, but…
Well, okay, so I don’t. And I did. There’s no real such thing as “medicinal marijuana”, there never was, and there never will be. And this is only really proven by a supreme court decision that, really, should never have had to happen. But, thank you again, Steven Harper, for … Read the rest

December roughly translated is holy crap it’s busy?
Between work, Christmas shopping, and the general insanity that is my life around about this time every year, not surprisingly I’ve managed a grand total of like 2.5 attempts at entries on this here blog in this here month. I finished my shopping for Christmas about a week or so … Read the rest
