Wow...I cant believe this thing still exists...

Hey folks

Long time no talk..
it must have been years or something, holy crap.

Im here, at work, well, my 3rd last day of my contract, and Im proud to say that I did nothing of importance today at all.
Cleaned some emails, straightened up some folders, and generally let my replacement take over the duties.
(hehehe...that sounds like doodies)

Anyways
Ill have to start posting more and more often here. I mean, now that I activated it again, its so coooool. Plus, i can rant and rant! and since not many, if anyone at all know who I am, then you wont know who Im ranting about.

Well, i should get back to work, gotta do something important today.
Take care all, and Ill catch ya later!

Boredom

Bordom causes me to do alot of wierd things...
and when I put my mind to something, nothing stops me

For instance, instead of trying to do the pile of work that is on my desk, I search for a stupid problem with my Cell Phone.

When I purchased, the nice guy at the Power Center told me that I can use the infra-red capability to unload my pictures I take (its a camera phone), as well as upload ring tones and all that jazz with this phone. Thats great I tell myself, perfect.

So i take it home, and research the best way to do this. Well, since I have no infra-red connector, and a PDA that I wanted was way to expensive, I decided to buy the 65 dollar DKU-5 cable to hook it up to my computer. It does everything the Infra-red does, and more, plus quicker.
WOW i thought, this is amazing, Im gonna buy it.
So I did, and 2 weeks later, it arrives. Im so excited, I take it out of the box, create some new and cool ring tones, install all the software, and go to upload
Doesnt work
I get fed up after a few days of trying, and I call Nokia,
they tell me that Bell Mobility blocked the upload options, so I have to use thier service to upload and download things.
Great I tell myself, thats a good way to get money on thier end

so, I figure out a way to change a picture to my background, and then download, Lo and Behold, it works, 1 picture at a time, but its free, and I dont have to wait until t-bay tel (who used Bell equipment) to get thier servers working.

So...now Im rather peeved, because, I spent all this money,a nd its not doing what I was told.
Sooo...I call up Bell Canada, they wont help me, because Im not a Bell Canada customer, so I call up Thunder Bay Mobility, and they wont help me, because they have no control over the phones, and, why would they send out my phone to get fixed, when, EVENTUALLY, they can try to make money of off me.

So, this pisses me off to no end, I end up being upset and frustrated...

enough of the backstory

well, today, I was bored, and I decided to see if anyone else was as pissed as I was
well, I found a couple after a quick google search.
One of the people went so far as to ask for help, in which he got!!!
they said, download this program, its better than anything Nokia can come out with, and it works with Nokia phones, AND it bypasses the lock outs
WOOHOO I think
so I search for about 2.5 hours for a free, non shareware version I can try
well, none to be found, so I had to settle for an older version said works if you some funky stuff to it (add certain files and overwrite others)
So I did, and now, I am waiting for lunch, so I can zip home and pick up the cable cord, and see if I can upload more games and ringtones and pictures (oh my) to this thing!

I hope I can
that should be fun

thanks for helping me till another 10 min!

When is it safe to fart in front of a girl

the classy answer would be never

but, I am not a classy guy

and NO, I dont have any experience or funny anecdotes to amuse the masses

I was just wondering
when would it be a safe time to fart?
you know, you have to prove you are not perfect
you are a human, you all have needs..so...
when? After the 3rd date
after you get intimate for the first time...
I dunno

anyone help me?

Yup..Yup...I am Dieing...

So, I had a doctors apt today...
and..well....
its not good....

Good news is...I DO NOT have diabetes...
WOOHOO...
no diabetes, awesome news!

Bad news is...
Im still at risk, and always will be...
plus, I have high Cholesterol
and not the good cholesterol, the bad kind
the kind that rapes your mother and kills your father for looking at it wrong
the kind that punches babies, and flips off puppies!
the kind that kicks your ass for looking in the same general direction of thier wife...

so...now I gotta get rid of this...
not good, now it got so high, no one knows
but, I gotta start something, or its heart attack and/or death
as my doctor to eloquently put it

so
thats it
now to spend some good ol' work time researching how to lower the bad and increase the good

World of Warcraft Rocks!

I think Im dieing

Im falling apart. It kinda sucks

Ive been having this pain in my back and neck for about a week now
and it, it seems to be getting better, but not at the speed that Im used too

and now, just now, I sneezed..and after I sneezed, my chest really hurt
this doesnt seem good
no sir, it doesnt
maybe I should see my doctor about that....
by the time I get an appointment tho...Ill probably be dead...

funniest thing Ive read about l33t - New l33t handle

This is a copy/paste from http://www.anothersite.co.uk/

Ok, so you know you need a 733t new handle, but how do you tell if you are a sL4y3Rz, dEathQU33n or p0iSoN-r4t-aN4l-L0vE-B3ast?

Here are a few tips on choosing that right name for you…

1. It has to be something manly and awe-inspiring. Even if you are the Internet equivalent of Elton John’s bitch. Think violence, and think big. Rosie O’Donnell big.

2. Always capitalise random letters in the handle so as people think your Caps Lock key is stuck. Or you have learning difficulties. Or both. Or you’re just a prick. Or all three.

3. It should be all one word, even if it isn’t just one word. Confused? Consider the handle SirD0nGleK0nG. In that example, three words have merged to become one and that makes it 733t and adds three inches to your ePenis. It also confirms to everyone that you have a deep illness of the head.

4. The path to obtain spiritual 733tness calls for certain letter to be replaced by certain numbers. For example, an “a” becomes a “4” and a “z” becomes “Beverly Hills 90210” or something. The origins of this requirement are unknown, but it is probably something to do with glue sniffing, or someone got their Num Lock key stuck after enjoying the darker side of the Internet a little too close to their keyboard.

5. Most importantly of all, don’t include any of your real name in your handle. If, for example, your name is Jeremiah, don’t make your handle “t0x1c_JeRem14h” or anything that has even the slightest hint towards your stupid real name. There is no point in a handle if people know it is you. The whole point is to hide who you are in real life, because in real life you suck worse than a telemarketer who’s inhaled one of the shitty vacuum cleaners they’re trying to sell.


So...with that in mind, what should my l33t name be?
any ideas?

Things I learned

First thing I learned today...
was to NOT make the nice nurse taking your blood laugh!

I walk into the laboratory, show my card, and the nurse takes me to the back....
first off, I guess you should know....
Im deathly afraid of needles...
I mean, I have nightmares about these things....

so....
she takes me to the back, past the big rack of needles/tubes/supplies
I fight the urge to run, swinging my arms at anybody who is silly enough to get in my way...
so I ever so slowly walk towards her space...
she looks at me, smiles and says, its OK, sit down here, Im gonna get the paper work and Ill brb...
so Im there, looking around, waiting, fearing the worst....
she comes back, with a LONG list of stickers...
I guess I must have had a look of shock on my face because she asked if I was alrgiht, I said yes, I just hate needles....
she says "dont worry, Im a pro at this, it wont hurt a bit"

see...what people dont understand, is I have a HUGE fear of needles, and I got a HUGE imagination...
so, while I may not feel pain, my brain thinks I do...

but anyways...
she goes and pulls out 4 vials to take blood from...
I look at them, as she is getting the needle ready and I say "Those are huge"
she laughs a little and says "Not really, its actually less than an ounce"

then she proceeds to tie that ribbon on my arm to slow down blood flow...
she starts to press here and there, and then says "Aha, there you are, this one is prime"
and I cringe and think of a supermarket...

"now all I have to do is make sure you dont feel the needle.....unless you start to swear at me"
I say "if Im at the point of swearing, just knock me out"
she laughs and has to stop
"Never heard it quite that way before"
"well, I told work that I had blood work to do, so they know If Im late, being unconcious is of no concequence right now"
she laughs again

she goes to poke me again after calming down
I feel a poke, them movement...then a "hrrmmmm"
"Close your fist"
......
"OK, now tighten"
......
"I dont know whats wrong, nothing is comming out, I can feel it, but you have no blood comming out...wierd"
"Maybe the blood is scared" I say
she laughs "lets try the other arm, Im so sorry, we will have better luck with the other arm"

So, she goes through the same procedures on my other arm
me, having a mild heart attack because this will be, in a matter of minutes, the second needle I get...
so she pokes, and squeels, "yes"
just then, another nurse walks around the corner...looks around...and then says "Whats your name"
"Joe Iachetta" I say
"hhmm...." and she walks away
I look at my nurse (being careful not to look at the needle)
and says, "Jeez, that was easy, ask another question, I wanna win a prize"
she pauses, looks at me for a brief second, then bursts out laughing, I mean hard core laughing
trying not to shake a needle that is in my arm, moving, jittering, and me, in shock and pain, becuase I didnt think it was that funny...
then she goes between laughs "Guess what you win"
and I look and say "Another needle"
and she laughs again...

it was a very disturbing, mixed up experience
we ended up chattinga bit more while she made sure I wasnt bleeding to profusely
and then I got up to leave
she siad thanks for brightening her day and being to good, I said no problem
and she appologized yet again for the 2 needles...

now Im at work, with a pain in both arms, reliving the tale of comedic dread

thats all Ig otta say

A 4 letter word for Snatch....

So im chatting with my cousin through MSN...
she is a cool girl, younger, cute, but a little messed up with her priorites, but its her life
and I wont and dont interfere...she is great, despite our differences in certain things..
so we are chatting, talking about girls, guys, potential boyfriends, potential girlfriends, and ex's
when, all of a sudden, after I come back from lunch, and we are not really chatting as much
she askes me what a 4 letter word for snatch is...
well...
my first thought, of course, being me, was GRAB
then I thought TAKE...
then my other self said the C word
I wont mention it here, because women tend to hate that word, and since I love women so much, I wont make women hate me.

She automatically assumed I would say something dirty...because..well...most women think that I would (I must have a rep or something)

comming from a group of friends that make you second guess everything you are going to say does wonder for the intellect. Take Scott for example, he loves taking my words and making something bad, or sexual with it, and I laugh, because he sees things in such a different way...
then there are times that Im just plain dumb, and get caught saying things that...well...would normally not come out of my mouth...
for example....Deeznuts
who on earth names thier character Deeznuts...
well, Scott does, then he laughs when I say. "aawwss....Deeznuts is great, dont get rid of him"
or something along those lines....

So...now Im level 16 in WoW
I think Im actually gonna buy the game and sign up for a while, just because I like it so much
its about 10290odfjskldur83290587r90gsioghj4358403r09 times better then everquest ever was...
and its really fun too!

I suggest you all get it!

that is all

go back to your day now....
