Louder now, I LOVE YOU.

A very outdated yet great way to cruise France:
Why I bought a canal barge in France. (The search for the perfect tomato.) I shall add that there’s not only Paris to see in my country.

I should say it more often, but here i say this real loud: I LOVE YOU. You know who you are. And i know who you are, and i’m eager to know more and more of you.
But do i need the words.

I was telling you about Microsoft being hacked.
Here are the WinMe sources !
(ok i found that on SitePoint again)

Extract:
write_something (anything);
display_copyright_message ();
do_nothing_loop (infinite);
do_some_stuff (nothing_really);

if (still_not_crashed)
{
display_copyright_message ();
do_nothing_loop ();
basically_run_windows_3.0 ();
do_nothing_loop ();
do_nothing_loop ();
}

I like the Mandrake distribution of ‘Nux, it didn’t asked me to choose between kde and gnome… I have installed both.
Which one do you prefer ? I have a sensible preference for Gnome because …i like the paw print.

My co-workers and even the gay guy (not an insult, he’s really gay) who is always-here-but-not-working-here have started to look at me with mean eyes. I wonder what i’ve done to them. They talk with a darker voice when i say the word “Internet”.
Would they get brighter if i used my sweeter voice to say the words “Fuck you” ?

To avoid all tentatives of accessing the Internet, my boss had the idea of changing his computer’s network IP. Good idea.
He forgot to burn the stairs to his office.

And he forgot that i can’t work on his f***ing database without proper access to the servers.

- TV sunday morning, r?sum? of the week’s soccer games.
- Afternoon searching for chestnuts, an eye on the fabulous view.
- The fabulous meals of my good old mom.
- Money comes back to my bank account.
- Laughter at a trendy-looking girl reading a buddhist book.
- Sleep in the bus back to Cervione.
- Linux Mandrake 7.1 installed without any problems.

Sigh, my week-end’s over.

I would.
When i have finished that database thingie then i’ll have acquired a status so high that the boss will allow me anything. Even internet connection during working hours, ahah.
I like talking through posts too.

I found a bug ! I found a bug ! (it’s so rare for me, let me rejoice and dance)
On FindTutorials.com, this good old tutorials search engine, if you do a search for two or more words at once, everything will work perfectly on the results’ first page, but when you click next, you get a blank page with “The parameter is incorrect.”.
Why ? Because of the space between the words. On the first page it’s replaced by a + sign, but when you click next, it is not replaced anymore, and you get an incomplete query string.

Hope i wasn’t too technical on this one.
And now i’m gonna e-mail the webmasters…

I won’t feel at ease if i was a user of Windows 2002, in 2002. With Microsoft’s network hacked, the back-doors & this kind of attacks will just multiply…

President of the Philippines Estrada seeks divine help. God having his part in politics again. How sad. How ridiculous is Estrada.

Yesterday
Her: So, internet is off for the afternoons now ?
Me: So it seems.
Her: It’s better. So the phone lines are free…
Me: Well, it slows up my work though.
Her: …And there are no more visites to websites during working-hours.
Me: I only browse the Net for documentation relating to work, while working hours.
Her: Well, it’s better anyway…
Me: If you got something to tell me, you can go straight.
Her: The boss sees all the internet activities from his office.
Me: I know. You want to tell me something important ?
Her: Hey, i was just saying that there was no internet connection, that’s all.
Me: Of course.

This coworker just phoned me and asked if there was internet connection right now. Sure. I’m uploading the database, you want any other reasons ?
She’s so bored, nothing better to do than bug me. She’s so jealous, she got always the same tasks everyday at the radio, while my schedules are always different.
People here are strange, when they got no life they try to make yours worse than it is.

Some fucker mail-bombed my old hotmail account with spam. Not the cute inoffensive mail-bombing, but 2000 times a 1K message ! Just enough to make Hotmail delete all the previous messages.
It was funny at first sight: 2232 new messages. Darn it, i got important messages that still stayed on that account.

MAIL-BOMB THIS ASSHOLE.

I feel so exceptionnal, i’m the only webmaster in the world who doesn’t have the right to access the internet during his working hours. Lame lame lame.

It feels so great to be untrusted by the boss.
“Due to time restrictions set by your network administrator, you are not authorized to access the internet at this time.”
Ahah.

Again, designers at work: an intro page of 215kb. Sure. Works well on your computer, but on a 128K connection, it doesn’t. Thanks for putting a skip intro link. Is your intro really not worth seeing it ?
And, how cool ! Mystery Meat Navigation on the main page !
Great, i’ll skip the main page aswell.
And ahahahahah a Vote-for-me button !
…Powderfinger.net sucks.

So there are french weblogs out there !
I shall start my french one in the next weeks.

Would a woogoo logo fit on my site ?
I got 4 new layouts in mind (and on my hard-drive of course) and some are seriously good. But i’m greedy & selfish. I keep my toys in their box for now.
Wouldn’t i get sick of a that woogoo logo anyway ?
When i see that all it requires to have that logo is using the great trends-that-suck like dotted lines, orange (since two or three month, too many orange. i shouldn’t have used orange on boo! when i started in june, it showed the way. ah if only i could even consider myself as the trend-starter) and such… phew that was a long parenthesis.
