another brand of Zimmers
The Zimmers I noticed is in fact a Rock Band name shared by at least two bands. The generically younger of the two being actually really impressive
It seems they play classical rock songs which are actually featured int the Rock Band video game, which I love to play.

World's first wooden supercar - Splinter
I was on Facebook, and noticed a car in an application, "Car Racer", which I found a link to from the newly updated and now more awesome "Pro Racer". Why a wooden car? Wouldn't that be dangerous? And would rot be a serious problem, especially in a garage where woodlice are always ahnging around? Well, if you have these questions and want to know more, them have a Butchers:

Movie Sequel Mania
xXx - Return Of Xander Cage is written about over at Screen Rant. Maybe they forgot about The Death of Xander Cage, or maybe they'll improvise. I mean it's not like you see his face in this clip, or in fact see him die, or even hear his voice actually. Maybe they'll ignore this important piece of material, like Hollywood seems to be good at doing with most sequels or media translations.
Next is Fast & Furious.
I doubt I even need to tell you which Movie Franchise this is from. If you don't know you are a spoon. Or a motorbike accident's helmet with the head scooped out. Now, it's going to be four movies later, with only one show from the original cast from each main charachter second then again in the third movies. So I really hope they make a good tie in here or I'll be pissed. I telling you one thing, if it's a one liner each i'll be pretty annoyed, but only if the excuse is that the movie has alot of good stuff packed into it.
And oh, wait, it's yet another Vin Diesel flick, Chronicles of Riddick III (There's no actual title yet)
Oh yeah, it's not a sequel but check out Watchmen:

It's not my Job
Then I can fuck off from doing what can be the most hasseling part of the job and start sorting shit out in the stock rooms like I'm supposed to.
Don't get me wrong I like my job, just not alot of the customers that come through, little do they know it. And I'm not getting myself sacked beause I'm not mentioning names or anything, and also this goes for many jobs I've done in retail anyway.
Then I can shout profanity and throw empty cardboard boxes around menacingly and ruthlessly, like a motherfucker. Of course not into anything worth anything, just bins and walls mainly. But I get the job done.
And trust me I'm not some idiot when I serve on the till. Well I used to be because I wasn't fully trained and had just been thrown on after a crash course. Now it's just having to fumble through annoying price sheets and paperwork to calculate discounts and crap and trying to explain to customers what a moron they are for not reading the signs to find out what our deals are, and how, in my imagination, they really should "shut the fuck up" about their big rush they are in before I make their lateness a permanent cancellation. I mean why would I care if they are late or something? Not much I can do, It's not like I want to take my time with them. I just want their moeny in the till as soon as possible so I don't have to see their miserable faces again. Well I wish I could tell them some true shit sometimes, but I incinuate it at least. Buy it or don't, pal. If you want deals or certain items browse the store, go find, dick cheese.
Oh, and I attended the d.construct conference in Brighton on Friday, it was pretty crazy. It was all about social networking on the internet, it's new technologies, foresights, developer's plans, and stuff like that

Daft Bodies - Harder Better Faster Stronger
This must have alot of practice!
Yes, Billy Bullshot, you did
Since you asked me to prove that I'd noticed a message from you calling yourself gay, I thought I would show you what I saw. which really doesn't bother me if anyone is in the first place, as long as I'm not dragged into joining the Anal Love side, it's just not my bag. I saty out of the idea. anyway before I waffle on, may I point out that you suggested that would enjoy being raped by Mr. Jerky.
Allow me to explain:
And I quote:
Mrbeardo said:
I think Billy Bullshot must be dead by now, he's not commented since he said something about being gay. Maybe he's a homophobic gay, which is probably one of the worst things you could be. I'm glad i'm not him...
12/06/08 14:37
which was followed by:
Billy Bullshot said...
Sadly for all concerned I am very much alive and kicking. Perhaps you'd like to direct me to the bit where I said I was gay, cause I can't remember it. As a matter of fact Beardo I am also glad you are not me. very glad indeed in fact.
Well done, Pointz, you are almost funny. I met a guy like you in a pub once. He tok a dump in a church corridor and when he was handed the collecting box he said "no, thankyou".

I Drink Your Cookies!
Sorry got a little excited about making a bizarre intro. Oh well, deal with it as they say...
Today's Main Story
Upon accidentally switching to Big Brother and sticking to it at 4 am the other day as there was nothing else on, and getting considerably drunk (as you do), I noticed this Crazy Cookie mad woman (Kathreya) in "The Chair". Since then it seems she's the "talk of the town".
Anyways, I was just at a party with my colleagues last night, and it was mentioned. So today I thought, hey this is going to be some famous shit, like a quote of note. And so, in my wisdom and boredom (note the name of this blog), I decided to create this. I recommend turning your speakers down a little!

Son-Of-A-Bitch Mouse Solves Maze Researchers Spent Months Building | The Onion - America's Finest News Source
Despite attempts to condition the mouse by screaming directly into its face, the researchers reported that the subject smugly completed the second and third runs of the three- dimensional spatial task with ease.
Son-Of-A-Bitch Mouse Solves Maze Researchers Spent Months Building | The Onion - America's Finest News Source: "Despite attempts to condition the mouse by screaming directly into its face, the researchers reported that the subject smugly completed the second and third runs of the three- dimensional spatial task with ease."
This story reminds me of this image, and of TV cartoon series "Pinky and The Brain", to the fact that it's like something that could happen in that cartoon, with Pinky screaming at him, preventing Brain from taking over the world... Pinky and The Brain "The Maze"
I had no idea that Rob Paulson who's name was shortened to "Bob" in Fight Club was the voice of "Pinky".
I'm thinking obviously that the writer of Fight Club (originally a book), Chuck Palahniuk

I want a PC like this! 24 sec XP boot!
So I need a new PC. And as I have a budget, and a relatively average pay up to now (I got a new job), I have a budget of roughly $300 - £600.
Well, AMD have captured my heard with their value for money and long lasting robust CPUs, but then again they are relatively behind with the recent multi core driver issues they had recently (they had to install new drivers, to fix problems with their CPUs, which in turn degraded performance by up to %20 for Windows users). But now that problem is over with their new Chips coing out this year, although it seems that Intel is blazing ahead of them, especially with their new "Skulltrail" Dual Socket Mainboard/chipset project, which Ironically used borrowed theoretical ideas from AMD. Not too mention Intel's hinting of Octa-Core CPUs (yes 8 Core Processors). I guess you got the picture, two Eight Core Processors in one (Hell of a)Gaming Machine!
But me building an Intel based system would be way too much cost, even at the Pentium 4 level.
so Now I'm visiting different sites like Tekheads.com, Novatech.com www.IT-Buy.co.uk, eurowide-pc.co.uk, overclockers.com, and any sites that sell the cheapest gear!
It's hard work, but I'm also looking for the best value,and best performance without assuming any product is the best just because it's a well known brand, and also working out what would work best with what, and make the computer components streamlined, and one thing people forget most, some good, quiet and fast hard drives, which I think I'll make parralel with a RAID-0 configuration (I heard that works best). RAID is two hard drives working in unison as one drive, having one backing up the other as it goes, ensuring immediate live recovery of corrupted data and hardware faults, sort of like how you'd have a backup generator for an airport or mall. Apparently seems to make it faster too, as I've read & seen in many places, including here: YouTube - XP 24 sec boot up, 27 sec winamp launched.
So anyway, I'm not sure if, because of this being a big year for growing and emerging technology and computer gaming technologies, I'm not sure if I should make a halfway house machine that'll be just about able to play Crysis, or a beast with a budget, then have no money to buy something superior later this year.
All I know is that currently I can just about run WoW, for crying out loud, and that I probably will not have a lot of time for PC games, even though I'm now working at HMV. Especially with all those Unfinished PS2 games I have, and a severe addiction to random web surfing with one or two hour doses of news sites and Facebook daily. Yeah Facebook is fun, but sometimes repetitive and mundane, but it's Applications feature is rich with mini games & quizzes that you can play with your friends, no matter what PC they have, even with friend while they are at work when they get bored, things are quiet, or are on the eternal "lunch break".
When I play online, it's rare to be playing with anyone I personally know, and difficult to think at time "I wish I had an XBOX 360 to play with that friend of mine with a headset". But then, of course, which other friends would I know who could even afford one with the games we'd like to play, let alone the time, and possibility that we both have the same time off at one point of the month to play together, or just go to the pub instead (unless of course they have used all their beer money by buying an XBOX 360 with COD4 and an internet connector and headset, with a connection subscription to the online gaming, communication, and download services.
What's more expensive?
What's more fun?
What's going to last longer?
Who's gonna have the time or money to play with me, assuming they share the same opportune time of day to play with me?
I dunno!
I still have a rip off "sounded like a good deal at the time" Now with added hidden VAT" phone bill to pay, debts with barely justifiable extra charges and stealth interest rates, and nagging parents who are never satisfied with how much housework and money managing I need to do. Sheesh!
If they saw me with an XBOX 360, i'd be forced to use it in my room on a 14 inch CRT telly with one speaker, and maybe my surround DVD system if I can be bothered to extend the speaker range with the extra wires I got.
And on the subject of my 5.1 surround system,
I cant arrange the speakers in any decent positions, meaning not too realistic surround, in a room with furniture layout that would not be logical or helpful in any other arrangement.
Let me explain:
Firstly, I have a inexcusable ban from putting holes of any kind in the newly painted and smoothed plasterboard walls, an unhelpful factor that partly means it's not physically possible to attach the speakers on to any of the wall wall corners. Just placing them on top of something which is permanantly fixed in the corner is either impossible or pointless to do. like my like my wooden bed and it's integrated curved headboard, my huge, floor to ceiling, home built, corner filling wardrobe, that is now permanently part of my wall, which is connected to and part of my wooden home built corner desk for my computing & printing and occasional doodling and drawing, which is not so bad, but I need some sort of stand or something to raise the speaker above my PC tower or monitor depending on what's where at the time.
I've become accustomed to using my Surround system's headphone socket with my headphones because of this anyway.
So, what do I do?
Maybe my parents are right, I should sell stuff, I am a hoarder, my dad emptily bet me I would sell a thing before buying a new PC...
We'll see...
Snoogans!

Apple Updates it's iTunes intaller. Now with Spyware & a Browser
Apple Update...
is secretly installed under your nose, boots up with windows, has been known to take up considerable system resources, and also ensures that all iTunes and Quicktime compatible media files are opened with iTunes and quicktime, and without the user's consent.
Like Spyware, it installs itself, runs itself on every startup, is tricky to configure and remove, and also writes to the system registry, automatically overwriting any other file association settings you already had set, every time you reboot.
iTunes...
is great, it organises your music, and simplifies searching and cetegorizing. But aside from that it's hoards RAM, changes anything that is not MP3 to ACC without you wanting it to, and will only work with external devices and drives called iPhone, and iPod/iPod Mini, and iPod Touch.
Now, Steve, why would anyone be remotely interested in installing your over-decorated, over simplified, minimalistic Safari web browser, when your downloads effectively install update software that is, effectively, Spyware, and have a media player that wants you to spend money on media players with screens that are nearly pointless for watching videos without squinting, having to hold it up with your hands (no kickstands on iPods)?
It may be an improvement in free services and applications for Apple customers, but not an improvement in people who have lost their trust in your software.
If Microsoft did this, everyone would end up buying more PS3s and Linux PCs/EePCs.
But It is good to have a laptop that looks like it can easily be delivered in a household UK post box or used as a table mat.

Stop Scientology Abuses | You Found The Card
I was in HMV where I'm about to start work soon, training for when I start yesterday (Starting on 31st), and I found an "Anonymous" card hidden on one of the shelves in my future section of the store (Gaming).
It had a link to this on it "YouFoundTheCard.com".
It's weird because It's as if someone knew what I was doing and when and where, and planted it there for me to find.
In case you don't Know, as I already do (See the groups I previously joined on my Facebook account, Anonymous is a collective of people against the abusive and misleading Scientology movement, a stealth corporate organization posing as a Religion, which you may have noticed has been "Discovered" by many celebrities such as Tom Cruise and John Travolta. You can find many videos on Youtube about it.

Noooooo!
Quick Silver Screen(www.quicksilverscreen.com) has disappeared at some point this morning, to be replaced by it's host's default "nothing here, dude" screen. Well you know what type i mean anyway.
This is bad, I own many DVDs, but still I'm not well, and there are always cool videos on there like music videos and old stuff you can't find in the shops anymore!
If I was any more obsessed with the internet as I am with Facebook, i might actually cry. Oh wait, I do like it that much, but I guess I'm in shock! It's like when TV-Links got shut down. Bummer!
