- 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.

  • Hauled out the washing machine and replaced the filler hoses.
  • Cleaned out the alcove where the washing machine sits. Moved the washing machine back.
  • Nervously started the first wash load to check for leaks.
  • Watched the two Rugby Union internationals (for strange reasons I support England and Wales).
  • Updated my BIND configuration to work with FreeBSD.
  • Installed ClamAV under FreeBSD and configured it.
  • Still installing SpamAssassin ...

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.

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.
