this is old sh!te :: june '05... Glastonbury assembly... Monday, June 27, 2005 Thanks to everyone who sang along to all the tunes at Glastonbury. I'm listening to recordings on Radio 1 and they sound really crap, like a school assembly due to the audience participation. If I ever get on stage with the three guitar tunes I know, please stfu! posted by jpa @ 3:27:00 PM msn mess... It's about time someone released a patch for MSN Messenger, to remove all the ads, search fields, My Spaces, Nudges, Winks and all the other Fisher Price crap that was added in v7. posted by jpa @ 11:35:00 AM holiday... Thursday, June 23, 2005 Yay! P's booked us a week in Skala, Kefalonia in August! I'm off to pack! :D posted by jpa @ 6:56:00 PM music... Monday, June 20, 2005 Well I've finally ripped every CD I own to mp3, and have labelled every ID3 tag, resulting in over 20gb of tunes. For those that care to know I used Audiograbber to rip, using the LAME codec, and iTunes and MusicBrainz Tagger to label the occasional ID3 tag. Considering a couple of my unplayed CD's had started to corrode!!, I now have a backup of all my music, to be streamed wirelessly to my lovely Roku Soundbridge :) . posted by jpa @ 8:24:00 AM let there be light... Friday, June 10, 2005 The streetlight bulb had been blown for several weeks outside my house so I e-mailed the council asking them to sort it. Normally I wouldn't care but it helps deter the scrotey thieves from touching my car. So they've finally replaced it, but it seems even changing a lightbulb is too difficult a task for them, as now it's permanently switched on 24/7! I'm just glad my tax money is being put to good use lighting the street during the day. posted by jpa @ 1:14:00 PM the computer shop... Friday, June 03, 2005 I braved the filthy pikeys this morning and went into Worthing town centre. What a waste of time that was. So I go into "The Computer Shop" (formally Tiny so I should have known better) and asked them for a RJ45 wall socket. "Ugh?" the lady replied. "Ethernet socket to go on the wall? Cat5? Broadband socket?" "Er, um, no, I don't think so" said the dappy cow. So I thanked her and walked out hoping she could see my spastic facial impression in the door's reflection. No wonder a quarter of the shops in Worthing are empty, as they all seem to be run by retards. No matter, as there's another PC shop round the corner, opened only a year ago. Oh, it's closed down... posted by jpa @ 12:00:00 PM
