- Tried to catch a stray cat that's been hanging around our house so I could take him out to a friend's farm
- Tried to resolve some dependency issues on my school computer's Slackware install

I was successful at only the first.

If you guys liked Die Welle, try out Das Experiment (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250258/). I liked the latter more.

Admit it, most of you spent the time masturbating.


You mean frantically pressing reload button for a few hours until GH came back online?

2. Went to my gun club


Mmmm...I have a "love" for gun. I would have liked to own some for target shooting only. I will never be able to hunt. In fact, I was going to apply for a gun licence until I found out that my wife was pregnant. Then, I gave up the idea.

You seem to a very family-oriented person. I am judging you. I whish I had the chance to see my parents every day, but they live on the side of the world.


What I did:
1. Cooked lunch. Enough to have some left over for the week.
2. Reassemble my Apple Extended II (typing on it right now).
3. Study (Philosophy)
4. Prepare some "Poires Belle Hélène"  
5. Remove snow from the driveway

I was not going to spend too much time on Geekhack today anyway. Have been too busy with my coming Philosophy assignment.

I continuously pressed F5 in hopes that it would help geekhack get back online faster. Then I took a poop.

Yeah, I don't hunt either. Only target shooting.

Those keys look more like Brown Bears on a Dark Night than Pandas in a Cave.  

I have to ask David Attenborough if I got that cave part of the analogy correct.


thats only if Sigourney Weaver doesn't kill him first believing that he has been infected with the Queen alien's embryo.

Sigourney was hawt, no doubt. But since she gained on age, it's Rhona Mitra now.

Mitra is a bit mannish.

Funny, you're not the first one to say that. It had never occurred to me, even after hearing it. I find her a very charming lady.
