So far I'm enjoying my new position in messaging.
It's not overly busy, but there is stuff to do most of the time. Not that we get stressed as the guy who plays Counterstrike: Source (I think(?)) will agree on.
Personally I'm much too busy to play games or check ElJay... There's is a fair bit of stuff to learn here, but that's ok, I'm happy with that.

I also get toys. It's not much, but I have just been given a Blackberry to play with and there are other toys on the horizon.
I don't want to sully my soul by using Macs, but those 21" I think) wide screen monitors are impressive. Hmmm. It's very progressive of this bank to offer their workers the choice between Macs, Wintel machines or Linux boxes depending on what they prefer... That's not something you see often. Hmm, I'm tempted... Actually I'm more tempted to see if I'd be able to whack Linux on one of those bad boys...

I have also finally cancelled my membership to my local temple of pain gym and I'm going to the Soho Gyms near Holborn after work to see what it's like. It looks promising though...
Anyine else here who might be meber of a Soho Gyms?

And I'm guessing that you've all heard of the dyslexic black metaller who sold his soul to Santa :]

Which reminds me, on the day after the guy I'm replacing had his leaving drinks (Manager was an hour late, the leaver woke up in Brighton and veryone else was moaning about headaches) we had a major disaster and discovered that your DR plans weren't as good as they could have been.

Not a good day for that to happen, but a very amusing second day for me.

And I still haven't got a desk, but at least I have a laptop and a login :]

And amongst all the terrible things happening in the world at the moment, something happens which makes me laugh loudly :]

Telemarketing is generally really really annoying.
But now we can fight back effectively.
The Telemarketing Counterscript

Fantastic. Fortunately I don't get many calls like that...

Jolly Good movie with pretty good effects.

The Brothers Grimm are two travelling con men who set up fairytale curses in villages which then pay them to get rid of those curses. It's good work if you can get it.
But suddenly it all turns a bit Sleepy Hollow when they come across a village which has a real curse...
With the attendant wolves, moving homocidal trees, gingerbread men, witches, evil French, pathetic Italians and so on.

It's very enjoyable, in no way scary and trying to spot the many many many fairytales that are referenced in this movie.
When I was a kid (8 years or so) I got the big Brothers Grimm Collected Fairytales book, so I was really looking forwards to this movie and it didn't disappoint.

And on another note, isn't it surprising that France has been burning for nearly two weeks now and they still haven't surrendered?
I suppose they have tried... :]

I have seen many motivational posters in my life, but few beat these.
My favourite: )

I also think it's time I started an AFAIK original meme.
Comment by posting a picture of yourself that you like and which show something positive about you.
I want positivity here. Only worksafe pictures please...
And if you'd like to, go into detail why you like it.

My favourite bit is from 2:25 to 2:40. Priceless.

Also saw Night Watch.
Wow what a film. That rawked on so amazingly many levels and it really is a must see in the cinema...

Bed now...

I know you've all seen this roadsign before, but I still think it's funny:

And once again we see why we should be careful not to let women too close to technology :p

If you could get this t-shirt in black, I bet it would be quite popular in a certain dodgy techno club :)

I know my eggs are firmly in the Microsoft basket, but it still makes me chuckle when I see a book from Microsoft called:
Microsoft Solutions For Security
