I was “researching” at work, and during my “research” I came over a word I have not heard in a while: Defrag! Remember the days when defragging your computer was something you really did? And it took forever! I will do more “research” and see if I come across other nostalgic stuff one did on the days of DOS/WIN

What are the odds for a train being full, 1442 people`? Yeah , I thought so… Move away mofo, I am going to make room for myself! I am sitting in a room, without a couch!! Yes, you can feel the exitement build up! What is going on? What is happening? Why would someone be in a room without a couch? AHA, you think! A trick question. Is he in a bathroom? In a kitchen? Many rooms dont have couches! I wonder who decided that the couch should be in the living room? Its a funny thing, the couch! I will quote wikipedia: “A couch is a generic term in North America and Australia, for an item of furniture designed to seat more than one person. Typically it will have an armrest on either side. Couches are normally found in the family room, living room, den or the lounge. They are covered in a variety of textiles or in leather” These are the thoughts in my head, a mere 2 hours before kickoff! Rooney vs. Torress… Berba vs. Gerrard… Reina vs. Van Der Saar… United vs. Liverpool… I predict 3-1 ! An opener by Torress, followed by a double Rooney, while Nani finished off the match with a late goal. To all you Liverpool pricks out there, glory glory mofos!!! =)
At around 1800 today, I was waiting for the subway on my way home, when the unexpected happened. The train appeared in the tunnel just about to stop at the platform when a figure gained speed and disappeared down on the rails, just a blink of an eye before the train pulled in. A loud thumb followed as the train ran over the figure. The noise as the emergency brakes on the train kicked in, and the figure was probably torn apart by the wheels of the train, really didn’t sink in until later. The platform was evacuated, and all the people in the train stuck as the train came to a stop 1/3 onto the platform, most of the train still in the tunnel. I reacted with shock, not just for the figure who just had its life ended, but also because of the kids laughing and shouting “did you see him jump?”, the adult people who seemed more worried about how they were about to get home, and the lack of control of the platform guards. I really hope they reacted with shock , and that this indifference of a figures life isn’t characteristic. I feel sorry for the disturbed figure who chose to end its life by jumping, but even more for the poor soul who drove the train, having to live with the images of those crucial seconds. Two hours later the trains are rolling again. The figure has been removed. The rails have been cleaned. The only indication of whats happened is a note on the metro website saying there was a temporary stop due to an “accident”, as they understandably don’t say anything about suicides. I wont forget what I saw though, the driver will probably not forget either. Life goes on…
I`m having my lunch now, eating yesterdays Stinas kyckling, which basically is frozen chicken, with rice. Feeling all studenty all the sudden. Last weekend was Superbowl weekend, which swapped funny TV shows with stupid american football and lame ass commercials. This meant I had to entertain myself without family guy etc yesterday, and to my luck, I remembered my Star Trek TNG dvds. So I popped a random disc from a random season in and watched a couple of episodes. I had forgotten how good that series is, better than the movies.. [read Nemesis]. They had continuity in the story line, and no stupid mistakes like all the movies has. Picard follows the prime directive, and he is not a lame older version of John McClane. I think later I`ll watch some more, getting that trekky wibe lately, must be the winter. So to sum up, my ship is armed with: Phasers and Quantum Torpedoes! Warp 5, engage! I always formulate my best blog posts when I cant sleep. Lying in bed I think of stuff to write about, and many times I think to myself, my good that post is going to be good. Then again I am too tired to get up and fetch the computer (guess that is my iPad need), so I always say: tomorrow I am going to write it. So today, ofcourse, i have no idea what I thought about last night. Just that it was a fantastic idea. /fail This is where you go to kill some time, and have a laugh. Click Below:
From time to time I don’t listen to my instincts and catch a ride home with colleagues driving. Bad idea as always.. 2 subway rides and a local tram ride equals 25-30 minutes I’ve been stuck in traffik for 20 min now, and we have driven 400m maybe Looks like I’ll be home later than usual.. next time say nooooo |
