Month: August 2007

  • It arrived(pt 2).

    It arrived today, Aug. 23rd. The ring I plan to use to propose to MRC. She’s amazing, though most of you by now know that. Currently, there’s only as stub online that shows that something arrived today. When I get a chance to ask her, I will publish this post too, so that everyone knows…

  • YAQ

    And in a change to the normall random quotes: Ephesians 4:3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. Nice isn’t it? SK

  • Sometimes, you can see why he made 2 terms:

    Woman on Street: Sir, you are drunk; very, very drunk. Winston Churchill: Madame, you are ugly; very, very ugly. I shall be sober in the morning. Winston Churchill, a shining example of how I’d like the priminister. Strong on values, and with an attitude that generally tells the people that irritate him to bugger off.…

  • Strange Man

    Don’t accept rides from strange men, and remember that all men are strange. – Robin Morgan

  • And on a more upbeat note:

    I won’t leave my last blog post to be that rather morbid looking post. A post to slit wrists too. So, me being me, there really is only one way to carry on. Only one way to bring that smile back. It works, every time. Most times before the end of the second verse. IT’s…

  • Right-Click, Delete Contact

    Gone. The last remenant of 4 years of my life, deleted. A rather comp-sci way of ending something, but there it is. I finally deleted my Ex-Fiance’ from my MSN contact list. She managed to pull the wool over my eyes, and break my heart more times than I care to imagine. Everytime she would…

  • A letter from … Cyprus

    This is the second of the letters I’ve got from MRC, the wrighter of the “Random Blatherings” blog that you can see on my blogroll. She’s holidaying in Cyprus (as the title implies), and MAN can that woman wright. 15 pages, mostly full of stuff she’s either sent me in an email, or text, or…

  • vocational Guidence Councellor

    Is where I’m going tonight. I’m going to be taking the application form I gained from the Warden of Ordinands, and I’m going to try to get him to explain the idea of “Vocation” to me. Like I’ve said before, I know what I want, I just need to find the words that the Church…

  • Life is Full of Surprises

    Okay… So I think it’s sorted. I think that everythings done, closed. Neat. And then, 8:30 this morning, a phone call, from the Ex-Fiance. Telling me that she still misses me, and that she wants me back. Say what? Pardon? Exqueese Me? Baking Powder? Of course, she says in the same breath that her actions…

  • The Warden of Ordinands

    That was one tough meeting. I found it very difficult to feel at ease there, knowing how important this meeting was. They do try to reassure you that it’s all done with compasion, but I also get the feeling that they see hundreds of hopefuls, and that probably dulls their sense of excitement. It’s probably…

  • Meeting with the Warden of Ordinands

    Is tonight. I guess I should remember to post about things in advance. This is going to be the scary next step in my journey to joining the dog-collars. I’ve no idea what this is going to be like, and it doesn’t help that I am utterly exhausted. Perhaps, with a bit of luck, I…

  • Active Directory Make No Sense?

    Just a quick post to say that “luma”, available on Fedora 7 is a nice little directory browser, that also works with active directory. The handy thing about it is that it will tell you precisely where you are, all those pesky dn’s, dc’s, and ou’s. All nicely printed out for you. It may also…

  • Ether Bunny!

    Knock Knock… (who’s there?) Ether! (ether who?) Ether Bunny… Yea! [chorus] Yeay! Stay on the Happy side, always on the happy side, Stay on the Happy side of life! Bum bum bum bum bum bum You will feel no pain, as we drive you insane, So Stay on the Happy Side of life! Knock Knock……

  • Microsoft Finally Listening to Customers?

    http://port25.technet.com/ This site appears to be a site dedicated to improving ineroprability between linux and windows, from Microsoft, no less. I guess it’s more a way of getting linux to work with Microsoft, but I suppose if Microsoft are willing to GPL the stuff that makes it work, then it’s all good…. ~SK

  • Unexpected Downtime

    I would like to appologise to the few readers I have (all two of you) about the unexpected (and excessive) downtime. It appears that an upgrade overwrote the config files, thus stopping WordPress ( the blogging software I’m using) from being able to conenct to the database. This (as you can see) has now been…
