I also hope things get better for you n3wt.
Right now I am confused about some of my stats at work. I am in 2nd place in a pool of about 400 - performance wise. I know I should be first looking at the math. My problem is: how the hell am I even above the halfway mark? Lord, if I can do this well giving 50% I have no idea how well I would go if I gave 50+1 ;).

A minute ago my whole house stunk like burning plastic. I went to my kitchen and opened my dishwasher and one of my kids must have slipped a Nintendo Game in there. It was melted right around the damn plate warmer. ERRR I'm super pissed the dishwasher is brand new. Now I'm just letting it run hopefully it burns off what I couldn't scrub off.

We had in interesting phenomenon yesterday - horizontal snow showers.
Now, before the X Files music starts playing in your heads let me offer an explanation - we also had wind which would cut you in two. It's been a long time since I've seen snow plastered 30 feet up the sides of buildings and on telephone poles. ;)
Still, the electric (though flickering all night) didn't completely go off unlike 1000s of people in the Antrim Glens who are still snowed in and without power and telephones. My uncle has around 200 newborn spring lambs which would have been in trouble last night so hope there weren't many casualties.

There was a good 6 inches of snow on the car this morning and, to show how hard the wind was blowing, it had completely covered (vertically) a little wall round the side of the house which is normally well sheltered. It was hard even to tell which was the black wheelie bin and which was the blue one. :D
All gone now though, but I hope to god it doesn't come back tonight as I'm heading out and knowing me, I'll forget/not bother to take my coat. Or put flat-soled shoes on and not my DMs...

They're fine, I think. Not spoken to him directly but my mum (his brother) has and the weather wasn't quite as bad where he lives.
It seems to have settled down now, apart from an awful sky-darkening storm just after I posted last where we had horizontal hailstones instead of snow. I didn't really mind that because I've been meaning to get the patio sand-blasted for a couple of years now. ;)

Its been a very busy day so far, we got up early as it is my sons 5th birthday and he opened his gifts then we had some visitors. We then went and collected his birthday cake we had made and I have to say it looks stunning. We then went to see his Nanna and then we all went out as one big family for a nice dinner and now we are back. Harry has played a few of his new games and we have a house full of his cousins who have travelled quite away who are staying here for the night and then we are having a birthday party tomorrow afternoon with our family and all his friends from school. So ive just stolen a few minutes up on the bed recoperating before I go back downstairs to the mayhem that is my frontroom, I love birthdays :):up:
sitting in a friend's apartment waiting on kevin to get back from his first session of pt. the surgery was a success but now he is all kinds of pain. the doctor found a quarter sized calcium deposit behind his knee and that was removed. then he had some bone removed and finally, he had a ligment removed and then replaced with a donation from a dead person. every other move he makes, kevin is in pain. thankfully, he has good pain pills.
as for me, i am ok. just when i leave, i hope he can handle being alone and in pain... also to do his compression kit too. his healing is all up to him. i hate to leave him but i have a job to do and get more ready for the baby. its gonna be a short time and then he is home for good. jules has been more active than before. she already has kevin wrapped around her little fingers. i am going to start to read to her and record his voice so she doesnt miss him that much.
hope all is good around here....

Went up town today to collect our photos from our digital camera, basically the mem card was full so before Harrys birthday we put it into the shop to print off the 1,038 photos ranging from my daughters birth, photots of my father in law before he died etc very personal photos. So my wife went into the shop to get them as we paid over £100 for these prints and the assistant said Oh they didnt save to the system, OMG I couldnt believe it we deleted the card for my sons birthday and we havent got all of the pics from the camera on our laptop. Apart from the rage that was flying through me there was disbelief at the incompetance. But luckerly they have been able to use a recover from the memory card and they have recovered 1,200 + photographs from the card so they will be hopefully sorting it out for us and possibly giving a parshal refund.

I'm pretty sure GAME or somewhere like that is selling them for £39.99 (and not the full 60 quid retail price) which is the cost of a full price game. I got mine in Asda last year for something similar but would never have paid full price.
If you've got a spare wireless router laying around (and I've got about 4, all from various old ISPs :D) you might be able to turn it into a wireless bridge. Personally, I've never been clever enough to figure it out but there are quite a few tutorials on the net. ;)

I agree! This is a disgrace! Word on the street is they're trying to do it around Belfast as well.
It feels like no matter who you vote for, cheaters will always win and if anyone complains then your obviously sectarian and therefore should be kneecapped before any filthy words against the 'otherside' should pass your lips again.
Man, I hate here, our politians are too sensitive and believe in out dated ideals.
This is not a real democracy- this is a joke.

I'm fully expecting a visit from Michelle Gildernew offering me the moon on a stick to vote for her not to go to London while poor old Fearghal Mckinney reflects on the world's shortest political career, checking the situations vacant column for UTV as he does so. He'd do a slightly better job than the odd collection of reporters they have now. It's like a reunion for a day centre...
And is it just me or is Mike Nesbitt slowly morphing into David Trimble? I bet Linda isn't best pleased. ;)
You're so right! When the SDLP election ad came on I couldn't take him being running for election seriously! I think it's his hair!
Aha he is! slowly but surely! :D
This is my first election so I'm really excited about voting but I know that the Sínn Féin ones are going to be banging down my door any day now! At one point Mark Durkan sent me a birthday letter in September reminding me that I'm old enough to vote! :D
Been to visit my mother and Grandmother today it was lovely my daughter had a great time, so she will be sleeping well tonight :yup:
Waiting for 3 o'clock to come around so I can grab some lunch....
Watching Planet of the Apes “re-imagined” as an episode of The Twilight Zone. :D

Congratulations on that, and use it wisely. :)
I currently watching my son (5) play Halo 3 in a private match against his uncle (7) via live, and they are changing things in the level and adding walls, platforms and adding weapons etc Its real fun to watch thier minds working together.

I've either put on weight or they've made a massive rick in sizing the pair of jeans I bought yesterday. I know that's what fitting rooms are for but I'm a bloke and such things are as alien as instruction manuals for electrical goods.
In other news: I'm slightly Rainman in remembering the registration plates of cars I've owned over the years and a guy down the road is now driving the same Grand Cherokee I was running 7 or 8 years ago.
The poor old girl now has a heavy tint on the windows, some hideous chromed wheels and the owner looks as if he plays golf.
A sad end for such a noble beast. :(

Cheers nebs I did sleep well I was woken a 6:30am by my son who has had more really bad coughs so I gave him some of his asthma pump and calpol to calm his temp down but he was ok this morning and wanted to go to school. So he has had more pump before school and told them his chest is playing up again.

How are you finding it? I got back on the horse a few days ago and, after mucho grinding, managed to get back on track in the main story with everyone's summons completed.
Im having a nice coffee and some buttery toast while my daughter watchers Waybuloo and eats her toast :)
My wife and lil sis are putting my sons trampoline up in the garden and we are contemplating getting wood chippings for the rest of the garden that wont have a patio on it.
Also im very pi$$ed off with the guy who I bought headphones for the 360 from I emailed him yesterday to see where the hell they are and he got back to me saying he is out of stock and is getting more in on wednesday thats 9 days after I bought and paid for them, so ive told him I want a refund and im going to buy them from over asda when I go over later. I feel a neg coming on :laugh:
Tacitus
04-20-10, 08:23 AM
You might have been lucky with those headphones mate. I bought a pair that look suspiciously like the ones you ordered last year and, to be honest, they're crap and in the bin. You can't hear anything from the TV, unlike a standard earpiece, so you're best getting a refund if they're dicking you about.
The £9.99 ones in Argos seem fine but I ended up getting a wireless M$ one in Asda for about £30 and it's excellent. ;)
Were off to asda soon after my daughters jabs :( and I'll see what we can pick up :yup: Im so annoyed with this person who was selling them, he/she didnt get in touch to even say they were having a problem with stock or they sold more than they thought. If they had got in touch and explained and/or offered maybe a slight refund for the trouble then there would of been no problem tbh but they did nothing untill I waited a week and then emailed them. Fairplay they have very good feedback but they have treated me terribly, they can sod off I am getting a refund.
Tacitus
04-20-10, 09:16 AM
Hmmm, I can remember something similar on eBay a few years ago where the thing I ordered was suddenly 'out of stock' and the guy only agreed to an immediate refund if I gave him positive rep. I didn't want to go through the whole Paypal disputes thing so I agreed and left him the blandest positive feedback possible.
Sure enough he refunded me but I was always suspicious that this was the way he got so much positive rep. ;)
Other than that I've been pretty lucky on eBay. Two mint PS1s for a tenner, for example. :D
Ive been really lucky with ebay in the past I bought my last car from there haha
How are you finding it? I got back on the horse a few days ago and, after mucho grinding, managed to get back on track in the main story with everyone's summons completed.
It's pretty good. It's fairly simple thus far, though it's a little repetitive. Every level (I'm on Chapter 6) seems like the one before; you fight enemies, then do something to open up a door, then fight a boss and ad infinitum.
I'm not sure if it changes course, which would be nice, but it's fun and I keep going back, so I guess I shouldn't be complaining. The battle system is one of the main reasons I keep going back (it's a lot of fun, to me), and the graphics are pretty unbelievable.
Tacitus
04-20-10, 01:16 PM
I've put in over 30 hours and am well up in the teens in terms of chapters and it doesn't change, really. ;)
I guess it's best not to go into a JRPG with the expectations of a Western/PC RPG but I think I've got fed up of the whole genre. It's the best game of its type in this gen, I'm pretty sure about that, but give me something by Bioware or Bethesda any day. :)
Taci I bought a very similar if not the same headset as the one I bought of eBay and it is finally up and running so me and my son are well happy. He is on Halo 3 as I type this playing with his uncle chatting away haha
Im really looking forward to getting in some MW2 with my mates using the headset at last :D

Well, that's disappointing. Nevertheless, I still plan on playing through it, just because it's a Final Fantasy game. I will say that the summoning technique is pretty fun, as well as the Crystarium function.
I'm not fed up, yet, anyway. I plan on trying Star Ocean: The Last Hope International - I've heard some decent things (but I have yet to purchase it). The cutesy voices and music are a little irritating, as well as the strangely out of place jazz music.
The tough part is finding a PS3 game I can afford at the moment; most of them are at least $60. I may purchase Arkham Asylum at some point in the future, though. Do you have any recommendations (preferably ones that are used and been out for awhile)? Any genre, it doesn't matter. I've beaten Fallout 3, Resident Evil, Metal Gear and Dead Space, though. They've been out for awhile and are relatively cheap, but it would be a little pointless.

Tacitus
04-20-10, 03:24 PM
To be honest, Star Ocean 4 would not be one of my recommendations. Like FFXIII the combat mechanic is excellent but the story and characters are just so dull and hackneyed. There's a character in your party who makes Yanille in FFXIII seem as gruff as Clint Eastwood gargling razorblades. You've been warned! :D
If you like your JRPGs I'd recommend Eternal Sonata - It might look a bit cutesy but it's got real heart. ;)
There are some cracking titles out on Platinum right now (which is a maximum of £20 over here but usually closer to £10 if you shop around) and I picked up Midnight Club: LA a few weeks ago. If you like old-style Need For Speed street racing it's excellent. Dragon Age Origins is also dirt cheap and I love it to bits.
inFamous is also on Platinum and I'd say it's a must-own for the PS3.
The PSN download games are usually good value and I'd highly recommend Flower (the only game to truly harness the Sixaxis motion sensor), Wipeout HD, Zen Pinball, High Velocity Bowling (another good motion sensor game), Shatter and any of the Pixeljunk games.
Ouch -- more cutesy than Yanille? That would be painful to the ears. Eternal Sonata....I've heard vaguely of it. I'm sure I've seen it several times at Gamestop, but I only glanced at it.
I thought about Dragon Age Origins, which certainly seems like a viable option. inFamous looked great, as well.
Thanks for the recommendations (and warning).
