As it apears, in this issue, I am stuck back in beatrice. Things could be a lot worse, at least here, I know where I stand (for the most part). I am the villige idiot, or something of that nature here. But I have certen skills, and these people know about them. Getting high quality hardware, service, and writing software. At least these skills pay, but since I am the vilige idiot, not much, but enough...just enough. That's ok, I can live with it, it dosn't realy matter at all. I also live in an attic. Not a bad place to live at all. I have all the nessary things, power (120vAC), phone line. Asside from that, it is all frivalius. I've been keeping myself busy with a contract programing job. Thank god that seems to be done. I am living with my ex-roomate...that is not the best of situations, but at least we don't appear to want to kill each other too badly. My sleep scedule is not real, only imaginary. I have trouble makine appointments due to this phenominan. My smoking problem is sparadic...one day I smoke 3 packs, the next .5 packs. Most of it depends on how much $$$ I have at the time. I have taken up a new hobby, I quite enjoy this one. Listening to cordless phone calls. I ususaly sit in the attic, surf the web, or IRC, and listen to the neibors, but sometimes, that is just not enough. So, I walk around and listen. It is simply amazing the range of these things. Quite often, I get two blocks range out of a phone. Onece in a while 3-4. Due to this, and the amazing stupidity of humans, I can walk from my attic to downtown, and rarely have a break in audio stimuli. Most of the people are talking about outher people, that is pretty sad. Don't they have anything better to talk about? Sometimes, the people are talking about themselves, but that is rarely as interesting. In any peticular place, with my whip fully extended, I can pick up several conversations at once, This is great, I have some choice of what I listen to. My favorite things to listen to. People being sappy (this is just humorus in it'self), Teenybopers (They tend to be realy sappy, and dumb), and Little kids (they are quite often *WAY* too honest. Some interesting conversations, These two people where talking about something totaly pointless, and then one said that he had to go, so they took 20 minuits saying goodbye...rofl. These girls where having a slumber party of sorts, and seemed to spend 99% of the time on the phone. They called up lots of people, and just shot the shit. Then they decided to make fun of some guy that they seemed to have a thing for, so, they called him up, and tried to make him think that they where having phone sex with him. It was quite funny, and sounded realy fake. But neverthe less, since they plotted this for quite a while, I had tie to get my taperecorder ready, and hit REC at just the right time...so, all and all, I got like 3 teenybopers on tape pretending to have phone sex...perfect blackmail materal! I doubt I will ever use this, but just having it is funny. As time moves on, I seem to be getting farther, and farther into the black arts of servalince. Last night, the cops where playing spy-vs-spy with some guy that had a scanner. They never quite found him...It was great. Then one of the rookie's didn't want to get out of his car and code 3 a vechile. is excuse was that it was raining, and he didn't want to get his radio wet. So, he spent a lot of time fumbeling around for ziplock bags, or something, but I'm not shure what happend to that, sinice I switched to some radio program that was sceduled to come on. Hmm, some lame kids show is on now. This is pretty boring. And they have a cheesy love search thing mixed into the plot. Oh, on a lighter note, I found the true speed of my notebook, 50.11mhz. Pretty pointless information, but hey, I was realy bored (does it show?). When I put my scanner up to the CPU, and set it to that freq, I can hear sounds that coralate to what the CPU is doing at the moment, I would not have noticed this except I was writing software when I found it, and knew what the CPU was doing at the time...quite cheesy. Making the HD shutoff after 2 min of disuse has increased battery life on my notebook dramaticly, this is realy great. Heh, the cheesy show that's on is power rangers. I can't belive that show is still on! I rememer when it first came out in this country. It was soo dumb, and cheesy, and had realy bad acting. Due to this, I watched it. Not religiosly mind you, but whenever I hapend to catch it. It was so bad, it was good...then that line of thought makes me think of superhuman samuri cyber squad. That was in all reality a big ADD for compaQ. It had bad acting, cheesy CGI, and little to no plot. But it was just funny, mostly due to thier technical errors. These people would find a virus in a lightbulb...heh...need I say more? Enough of that mindless drivel. I have been having dreams again. Often this is a good thing, but not all the time. In the first dream, I was sitting by an old friend, having lunch, with her mother and her. We tried very hard not to make eye contact, and where quite quiet throuout the meal, her mother excused herself for a minuite and we looked at each other for a few seconds, then fell into an long embrace, at this point I woke up due to the phone ringing at 3:00am. Unfortunatly I was too dumbfounded by the dream to catch the phone. It was wierd. I see the event as higly unlikely at this point in time, but not imposible. But on that matter, nothing is truely imposible. It's just that some things are so unlikely that they might as well be imposible. Hmm...gona smoke...bbiab...Droping the battery for the notbook has helped too, I think. Maby if I do it to the other one, then I can have both work. That would be quite cool. Hmm, no cordless active in the area...but I don't have the whip extended very far, just enough to listen to FOX. I am thinking that this file is silly and pointless, so I will stop
