I just emptied the spam from my spam folder. Has anyone else noticed the oddly poetic subject lines in some of the spam? Like this one "whole poem, in the" What's that about? I admit, I started a file on these subject lines. I don't open the messages--having checked once or twice just to make sure it was the runofthemill mortgage-pharmaceutical-viagra-desperatehousewives spam in the body of the email. but still.

Night.
No good headlines, unfortunately, but a really good indignant rant in the Mail containing the classic line "The government has really let us down. If law-abiding people did something wrong they'd be in trouble but travellers are above the law." Obviously they've missed out on one of the essential parts of being "law-abiding".

You know, if I thought too much about that sort of thing I might be inclined to think my drunken vomiting scared them off. That's a bit too narcassistic though.

So, Stoat, have you joined our fantastic Kingdom of Loathing clan? Are you still playing?

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

03:10 / 26.01.05

I haven't joined the clan yet... I'm still playing but I didn't play much last week- I only work alternate weeks and I've got a really slow connection at home.

I've not joined or played...convince me I'm wrong not to do so.

It's ace. It's rilly, rilly silly. And you can get hopped up on goofballs.

iamus

03:19 / 26.01.05

That is probably for the best. When I had a slow connection I actually did stuff. Nowadays my life consists of a chair and an iBook.

Sorry man, but I think that bed is the best course of action for me now too. I apologise for getting your hopes up and then dashing them against the rocks, but you gotta look out for No. 1.

Hope your remaining time at work passes quickly, or that some other sympathetic Barbeloid comes by to ease your suffering. Have a good night.

But on a side note Keggers...

Try the goofballs. All the cool kids are doing them.

It's better than Everquest. but not as good as Zak McKracken (which I seem to remember I saw you mention once, and which is my favourite of all the Lucasarts adventures).

Right really off to bed now.

Goodnight all!

G'night, keggers.
Hi, Sally.
I think this has been one of my favourite lateshifts in ages so far.

aaaaand that's a wrap. Work is over and I shall bugger off home to bed for another day. Hopefuly the nasty keepy-awakey sun won't have come up by the time I pull the duvet over my head.

fuck. 21:58 helsinki time and i'm still contemplating writing these articles on OSS middleware.

not that i know what that is.

alas

21:02 / 26.01.05

Okay, I'm going off to dinner just now (still at work, so it's a "late shift" of sorts for me), but that really was an ace LateShift last night. Was it as good for all of you as it was for me?

[I'll be back--promise; I have tons o' work to take on tonight, meself. Somewhat self-imposed work, but work nevertheless....]

wow. 2:36 in the mornin' and I'm wondering if I should open up another project and just keep rolling... yeeps.

i do have a brand-new electric toy to keep me playing, though. (no, no - it's a phone.)

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

23:01 / 26.01.05

Do you get all the new models of phone free, wembley?

wembley can change in 28 days

23:12 / 26.01.05

Not all of them, but today they updated the phones for all the people in the office who had Crap Phones. So I got a Nokia 6670, which is ugly but very, very loaded with cool geekery.

23:18 / 26.01.05

I don't understand all this phone malarkey- my new one's got all that 3G video calling and stuff, but so far asll it means is that 3 can send me video spam, which doesn't really seem like much of a step forward.

Ah, i <3 finland. they haven't caught on to the wonders of intrusive marketing yet; I've never gotten advertisements that i didn't sign up for.

but i'm going to have to bail on this lateshift - i've got a training tomorrow. and i don't mean to pull rank, but i'm in the latiest, shiftiest timezone west of australia. goodnight! (which, for me, means grabbing a decorative blanket and crashing in a meeting room.)

I have this amazing phone...its very mobile as long as I can carry my house. Which I cant. But it is a white phone my last was black.... and this one doesnt have a rotary dial.
and speaking of new technologies...

lol!

Mine gets awful reception, except when they're sending me video spam. I think I've been duped into buying a very small billboard. Ah well. It takes pictures and has email capability, so I can put photos on my blog, which is nice.

I can call people on my cellphone.

Sometimes people even call me.

Yup. Real exciting phone I got here.
