@Ment - sounds similar to ours. But damn ain't they expensive.

@Loki - That is indeed disturbing. I now officially want to be able to mix ryncol onboard the Normandy in Kasumi's room. Wonder where you'd end up... :)
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I'm currently fighting a war at work.
A war to bring about reason.

This week I squared off against three coworkers about the existence of personal mystical auras.

I was in the camp of: "They don't exist. They not-exist so much that they were disproved by an 8 year old years ago."

They were in the camp of: "Who cares, they exist!"

It's getting rather ridiculous. I've got one almost enlightened, the others I don't see enough.

So they've offered absolutely no proof as to why they think they exist? I genuinely don't get how anyone can seriously believe in stuff like that, I'm sure it's some kind of global joke with only me not realising it and it's like a giant Truman Show thing. Either that, or people are suicide inducingly thick.


God bless bank holidays. Left work early Thursday, went out for dinner last night and spent all night and until midday today in bed with my gf, then the afternoon with beers in the park getting sunburned, then to see MC Solaar tonight (he was awesome, if clearly getting a bit less enthusiastic with old age). Not sure I've had a more fun 36 hours in a long long time. Absolutely shattered now having had about 2 hours sleep, and I'm back home in bed with that perfect level of drunkenness to complement my tiredness, knowing I can sleep for about 10 hours solid now. Bliss.

I tried to get drunk on bloody marys yesterday, physically impossible. It may as well be mildly alcoholic soup, in the end you just feel way too full to carry on. I feel cheated.

@ Stormy
A "Dies Irae" should do the trick. It'll give you righteous hair. Might make you blind. Hope it helps for the hangover.

@TT
Considering that you're liver is filling an injunction against you, this may not be a bad thing.

just had a pint of 21st Amendment's Monk's Blood... a Belgian-style Dark Ale brewed with cinnamon, vanilla, oak chips and dried figs. Very tasty and will get you buzzed quick! I highly recommend it.

I'll see if we've got an equivalent up here, sounds pretty good.
Currently having a decent Porter.

The evening has every chance of being short. Nowhere to go, nothing to do.

cool link, AS.
although after a brief skim ( I studied Festinger in undergrad), I see that the author is skipping out on cognitive dissonance, which is what festinger's work was all about. IN fact, the Seekers was just one application of that.

Well, seeing as how I didn't get rep for that, I assume that I must proffer greater evidence for why people are retarded. Also:

I hate people. I just got a new roommate, who's a (apparently not starving) musician. Good lord, how does he pay rent.

Give me something that will make me forget how financially insolvent my current position is...
