22 Jan 2005 Affirmation; Coincidence?

As you may or may not know I've been trying out the Power of Affirmation since mid October. Well I was until about Christmas time. By that point it was getting harder to dedicate the time to write it out, purely because I couldn't be arsed. So I stopped writing out my goal. After all nothing had happened... A few days ago something happened to me that is suspiciously close to the thing that I was Affirmating about. I'm now a lot happier for it, but I gotta wonder, is it just a coincidence? Or did I somehow affect the way things work simply by willing it? I should try something else and see if it was a fluke or not. A big constant supply of money would be nice.....

12 Jan 2005 Wanted: Tester To See the Side Effects of Mobile Phones

I been hearing a lot in the news today about how mobile phones should not be given to 8 year olds due to the unknown effects of "mobile phone radiation". Personally I wouldn't give it to them because they're too damn young and irresponsible to own one. Who are they gonna call anyway?? But that's not the point. Scientist are still debating over the safety issues of mobile phone. There's no strong evidence saying that they are dangerous, but there's also no strong evidence saying that they are harmless. What they need is a large group of guinea pigs to test these phone on and record the outcomes. My point is this:

Ladies and gentlemen WE are the guinea pigs. We have been for several years.

Think about it. If mobile phones we even possibly unsafe they wouldn't release it for public use would they? You wouldn't release the latest Action Man doll with kung-fu chop™ if it was possible that it would stab you to death with it's metal knife (though that would be an interesting thing to see). Regardless more and more advance phones are being sold and we're just happily cooking our brains and/or groin areas with these evil invisible rays of death (although this is not proven). I've had a mobile phone in my pocket for years now and I'm probably infertile due to these bastards. Or worse, I'll only be able to produce mutant children that have special powers like they do in the comics (that would be nice but I'll probably end up with a kid with three and a half eyes, lumpy skin, an oversized limb and a hump).

And the only people who'll benefit from all this will be the scientist, analysing our misfortunes and coming to the conclusion that "Whoops, we shouldn't have released that..... Oh well, let keep making money out of it". This kind of crap has happened several times in the past. It happened with tobaccoo, it happened with cocaine (it used to be used in Coca-Cola soft drink and it was also a cure for sexual impotence), no doubt it'll happen again. Dammit if we have to put up with this kind of public experimentation we should be compensated. A new mobile phone would be nice.

So to conclude I say if you want to know the possible side effects of mobile phone then keep handing them out and wait a few decades. Your results will probably be in the hospital wards. I'll see you there ^_^

One more thing, I've heard a little rumour about mobile phones and I wanna try it. I think you all should too. Try this little experiment; take an uncooked egg and two mobile phones. place the phones on opposite ends of the uncooked egg about 6-10 inches apart (or centimetres I can't remember which). Leave them for about 12-15mins. See whats happened to the egg. Let me know the results because I'll probably forget to try it myself.

10 Jan 2005 Back into the routine of things

*Sigh*. Well it was fun while it lasted. All that holiday free time I wasted, mostly sleeping in bed. But I'm back at work now. And I've only about two weeks holiday time left for the rest of the year. But still it won't be too bad right? I've done all my work before the Christmas break. I made a carefully layed plan for the things that need to be done for the next few month. I know exactly what's coming up, just a nice casual slip back into routine right? What actually happened was; Get into work half an hour late due to surprizing bad traffic (I swear it's true), find out the last mailing list I set up to be sent out during my holiday didn't work, and that I have to design some fliers and web stuff to be done by the end of the week...! I need ter go back to bed....

1 Jan 2005 A public house charging entry? No!!

The bloody cheek! What's a guy gotta do to get drunk around here?? New Years Eve me and my friends tried to do a pub crawl thing to end up at one pub for a final destination, and do the whole countdown thing. Nearly every pub on the street was charging people to get in. Charging people!! We eventually found a pub that weren't charging at the door and we settled there for the whole night. Nice place and all in all it was fun, but that's not the point I'm making.

Now I expect that kind of charging for a nightclub, but a pub? It's wrong in every sense. It's even illegal for a pub to charge entry (or so I hear). Besides it's a pub, a public place for everyone to go. Some tried to justify the charge by saying things like "It's for charity, some of the money will goes towards the Tsunami Appeal".

BULL-SHIT! We all know you're trying to cash in!

I think next time I should hire our a ma-hoosive warehouse, a couple of DJ and their sound systems, and jam pack it full of friends and random people on the street I like the look of. And I'll charge them nothing to get in. Take that you money-grabbing law breakers!

Oh by the way, Happy New year everyone. ^_^
