Post: Bonjour my fellow readers. Or freak visitors who used the word "sex" plus another random one in google and ended up here. Here is the latest blog report from FofR.
The day began early, a sharp rise at 8:00am with a strong coffee. Today a friend was coming over to help sort out my new 80gb hard drive and help format and some other things. Well, as you may know, the HDD didn't arrive yesterday, but I was confident it would today. As I waited patiently for it I ate some Fruit n Fibre and watched some classic Power Rangers and Scooby Doo on Boomerang / Fox Kids. Oh the life! (nothing else is on at this time on a weekday morning). I continued waiting. Come 11:00am my friend arrived and still no sign of the drive. Sadly this trend remained throughout the day. No drive arrived. How inconvenient. So instead time was spent browsing forums, watching videos, Heathers and mastering GTA Vice City. In the meantime downloading the beta release for Halo on PC. Downloaded. Installed and ran. Error: Crash. The game didn't work. Thus I rebooted. I was greeted with a pleasant surprise upon my restart. ALL the problems I have been having recently with the MMC/Find/IE/MSN/Mcafee (see previous journal entries, 15th Aug-ish time) were solved. XP informed me some new hardware had been detected. Not that any was added. I can now use the wonderful search options again. The wonderful defrag options and update my virus definitions. But it is rather silly of Xp to randomly fix this random problem that randomly occured. Still no Halo though.
Currently listening to some Clann Zu while making piles of Caddies in Vice City and blowing them up in a miraculous explosion that is a gaming marvel. Oh and I am also pleased cause my photoshops made it into the Something Awful comedy goldmine of the week. Woohay! ( http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=1675&p=4 )
