So my website is now twelve years old. That’s all I got to say.

This is old news and I’m sick of seeing this long ass post. Short story is vBulletin 4 sucks. Stay away from it and use an older version or something else.
(more…)

It’s turkey day. Which is my favorite holiday. I’m at my brother’s house were technical difficulties have paused the cooking of the turkey. After a little fire clean up everything will be back on track.

Chat log time. This time it’s how I learned to like House M.D. after rejecting the idea of watching it many times.

Session Start: Sun Dec 07 2008
[12:38] Gawain: man this chick in House is crazy hot.
[12:39] Turk: who?
[12:39] Turk: I can’t watch that show
[12:39] Turk: seeing the dumb prince from Blackadder acting smart gives me limpdick
[12:40] Gawain: this chick.
[12:41] Turk: yum I would eat her on a cracker
[12:41] Gawain: yeah.
[12:42] Gawain: all the chicks on the show are crazy hot really.

Session Start: Sat Jan 24 2009
[04:17] Gawain: woo! new house MD!
[04:17] Turk: bah

Session Start: Sat Jun 13 2009
[06:27] Gawain: yeah. Initially I used to hate medical shows too. The guys on SA kept talking abotu how awesome house was, but it took me until like season 4 to download ep1 of season 1 and give it a shot. I used to HATE er.
[06:28] Turk: can’t do house
[06:28] Turk: dude is too good as a bumbling idiot in Blackadder
[06:28] Turk: and I refuse to watch him as anything else
[06:28] Gawain: I really like it. im not sure if its my favorite show, but its probably in the top 3.
[06:28] Gawain: have you ever watched it?
[06:28] Turk: no
[06:28] Turk: can’t
[06:29] Turk: dude isn’t a complete fucking moron
[06:29] Turk: you’ve seen him in Blackadder?
[06:29] Gawain: you should give ep1 a shot, honestly. the humor is so black. yeah hes a super genius sort of in this one. hes also addicted to pain killers and a complete asshole.
[06:29] Gawain: yeah.
[06:29] Turk: just can’t

Session Start: Thu Jun 18 2009
[05:20] Gawain: lets see. The only other show I can recommend is House, which I have recommended before. before you go crazy, please remember that I am 2 for 2 or 3 for 3 now.
[05:20] Turk: no house

Session Start: Thu Jun 18 2009
[05:26] Gawain: my plan once I get laid off is to drive over there, pick up some booze, and force you to watch house. I didn’t like that one. it was too corny for me. especially the mid air fight.
[05:27] Turk: eh
[05:27] Turk: not watched it yet
[05:27] Turk: fuck house
[05:27] Gawain: see I think you would really like it if you watched it.
[05:27] Turk: I’ll get you even more booze and make you watch Blackadder till you can’t watch house anymore
[05:27] Gawain: I liked black adder. I like house more.
[05:28] Turk: you know what fine
[05:29] Gawain: hahahah
[05:30] Gawain: Demonoid link
[05:31] Turk: 7 in the first season?
[05:31] Gawain: if you hurry you can catch up to season 6 before it starts.
[05:31] Gawain: 22
[05:31] Turk: I stand committed to my not going to like it
[05:31] Turk: eh
[05:31] Gawain: ok, but you have to watch at least 3-5 episodes before you quit.
[05:31] Turk: oh fine
[05:32] Turk: there’s 7 of the first season on pirates bay
[05:33] Turk: first 5 queued up
[05:33] Gawain: ok
[05:33] Gawain: I was hooked in season 1 but I can’t honestly remember if it was from the pilot or not. i think it was.

Session Start: Thu Jun 18 2009
[05:59] Gawain: wow im getting almost 600kbs to download season 1 of house.
[06:00] Turk: the whole season?
[06:00] Turk: where you get it?
[06:00] Gawain: demonoid.
[06:01] Turk: well if Iike these I’ll find it there
[06:01] Turk: first one down
[06:04] Gawain: im gonna watch season 1 again I don’
[06:04] Gawain: dont remember it.

Session Start: Thu Jun 18 2009
[07:44] Turk: I just don’t like it
[07:44] Turk: he’s not a fucking moron
[07:45] Gawain: eh, im not going to make you watch it. Still, the season finale of season 5 was the best finale ive ever seen on tv. and if you don’t watch all the previous seasons you can’t enjoy how awesome it is. But if you don’t like the show you wouldn’t like it anyway so no big.
[07:45] Turk: I’m watching it
[07:46] Turk: just not right him being smart and sarcastic
[07:46] Turk: it’s not bad
[07:46] Turk: its just got to much stacked against it for me to like it
[07:46] Turk: one its a medical show
[07:46] Gawain: dude, if you make it through to the end of season five, it will blow your damn mind.
[07:46] Turk: dude is a damn good actor
[07:46] Turk: ok
[07:46] Turk: I’m watching
[07:47] Turk: I miss his brit accent
[07:47] Turk: but…
[07:47] Turk: the dude is growing on me
[07:47] Gawain: I actually had to watch the finale AGAIN after I watched it the first time, because once you find out whats going on, there are clues throughout the whole episode.
[07:49] Turk: ok ok I fucking like it
[07:50] Gawain: lol really.
[07:50] Turk: gimmie a link the that first season torrent
[07:50] Turk: yes fucker
[07:50] Turk: I like that he doesn’t like dealing with people
[07:54] Turk: loved his first patient interaction
[07:55] Gawain: yeah its always great when he actually has to deal with patients. it never fails to entertain.
[08:01] Turk: fuck you really
[08:01] Turk: now I can’t watch blackadder again
[08:01] Turk: really this is good
[08:03] Gawain: heh. whats my score now?
[08:03] Gawain: or as I like to call it. my awesome quota
[08:03] Turk: fuck who’s counting
[08:03] Turk: yeah yeah

So I’m back to work. The vacation was nice. Nine days away from the workplace is always a good thing. It’s also nice knowing I still have another week of paid vacation left. I look forward to taking another nine days off.

It is once again time for vacation. I’m taking one week of paid vacation. With my usual days off the total time away from work is nine wonderful days off. I’m going to take two days and go again with the Newbs to Wisconsin Dells. I had a lot of fun when we went last time.

The Charter repair guy fixed my net. It turns out the actual cable was bad and dude had to replace it. You can’t imagine how happy I am right now. I can surf for porn and torrents again.
