Disordered Thoughts and Curmudgeonly Ramblings
For what it is, Skepta’s Shartdarn ain’t bad. It’s definitely got something. But get a load of the sample – taken from a caller to a British talkback radio show – at 1:50…
A bunch of YOUNG men, ALL dressed in black, dancing extremely aggressively on stage. It made me feel SO intimidated and it’s just NOT what I expect to see on prime time TV.
Seriously lady, if an image of people dancing on your TV makes you feel intimidated then you need to take a good hard look at your life.
A client is having problems importing data from Excel into one of our systems. They’ve provided (after much prodding) a sample file so I’ve asked them for details on exactly how they’re trying to import it – what options they select, etc. Today I got the following response…
“Yes, this is the one of the way to import file (not direct way), just copy and paste to suit Excel import format column, then import it.”
Even if that was written in comprehensible English I suspect it would not answer my question.
According to the always entertaining and informative Jason Colavito there are people out there (OK, one person) basing their view of human history on not just a literal interpretation of the Bible, and not just a literal interpretation of the books left out of the Bible, but on game supplements for Vampire: The Masquerade. Which they apparently think are genuine historical documents.
That’s it. I’m out. Build me a rocketship because I’m heading to Mars to start human society over again.
Let us assume that you have a website, which is hosted and managed by a website company.
And let us assume that you decide you want a new website, hosted and managed by a different website company.
Let us furthermore assume that rather than inform your original website company that you’re going to terminate your business relationship, you decide to conceal the fact that you are having a replacement website built.
And finally let us assume that you decide to send a ‘Preview our New Website!’ email out to some of your customer database.
Well. You may want to check that the selection of customers you’re sending that email out to does not contain the email addresses of any developers from the website company you’re sneaking around the back of.
Unless of course you’re pathologically passive-aggressive or something…

I know it’s been hot lately, but still…
From an email that was sent to one of our clients (emphasis mine)…
I tried to unsubscribe and the message came back that I wasn’t in the database. This might be because I have never subscribed in the first place and I want to know where you got my email address from.
I expect not to hear from you again.
Make up your mind! 🙂
My landline is being very erratic. Telstra are going to come look at it, then decide whether they’re going to charge me for coming to look at it. Don’t know how often I’ll be able to hop online over the weekend, but it seems to be holding for now.
In any case, we’ve started on the road to H.O.L with the proposed foundation of Church and Munch.
Golden arches: Businessman wants to build McDonald’s in a church
A FAST-FOOD lovin’ entrepreneur has come up with a unique idea to entice people back into the Church.
Build a McDonald’s in it.
Paul Di Lucca’s McMass Project aims to get the congregation back by turning communion into a Happy Meal.
I believe there was a ‘rave church’ in London in the 90’s that offered communion in the form of consecrated Big Macs, but this really cuts out the middle man. Break out your Sponks!
Put the word “Cock” into the description.
In the last two days my recently posted photo of Green & Co has had over 40 views from people searching for “cock”, “penis or cock”, “cocks”, “penis or cock or xxx” and other variations.
Seriously, if you’ve selected Flickr for your pornography needs you need to have a good, long look at your life choices.
This article is just too funny! I mean a Murdoch Journalist couldn’t possibly have a reason to criticise Netflix, could they?

According to my email inbox this morning…
* My Home Rate may be lowered to 2.76%
* My Trans Union Equifax score may have been updated (my trans-union-what now?)
* I have limited time to enroll in Medicare
* I have been chosen to participate in the Pepsi vs Coke Challenge
* My Auto Rate has been lowered (whatever that is)

* Dish beats Cable (apparently)
* Mercy Clinton wants to be my friend (she’s quite the looker!)
* Fourteen separate sexual predators have moved within 1.2 miles of my house (are they setting up some kind of club?)
What a complex world we inhabit!
