pimpin.jpg

Believe it or not, but that’s me, dear readers. Feel free to humiliate me by passing this photo around - as you can see, I already have no dignity.

This was taken on Halloween this year. The costume came together mainly because of the AMAZING hat that I’m donning, with the words "BIG DADDY" written on the front. Oh, did I mention that the words LIT UP? *flash* (pause) *flash*…. OMFG!

My friend was walking in Pharmaprix (a drugstore of sorts that exists here in Quebec), deciding to pass on the sale of the bug-repellent stationary (so useful!) when he saw this gem on the shelf. The Big Daddies were born. He, myself, and another bud all dressed up as pimps on Halloween eve for a bar party, and were instant hits.

The only phrase my friend needed to convince me:

"We would be no less pimps… than gods!!"

My friend on the couch in the pic is obviously impressed with my pimpiness.

Oh sweet jesus… Jesus?!

I’m begining to realize that I should really start writing more of the content, as this is quickly becoming an "I-find-something-and-put-it-up-here sorta dealie. This will change - and to the unfortunate recipiants of said promised future ranting (namely, YOU), I apologize.

Well, at the very least the following is good for a chuckle. (Chuckle) See?! There it was! WHAT, ARE YOU DEAF? (Sigh) Fine, just read.

But Dan-ta’s here to make things right! He’re a smattering of goody-ness in the form of Uniform Resource Locators:

*Whisk*…….*SPLOONK!*
Has the tube-like shape of a penguin ever evoked those long-dormant memories of pushing plastic blocks shapes through holes when you were a child? Yes it has. Vent the frustration of that damn wrong-shaped hole that you’ve kept pent up inside you all of these years by pushing some penguins into a frozen lake.

Why, that’s positively Blobular!
Have some time to kill? This is an internet multiplayer (meaning you play against random people on the internet) blobby game. You’ll understand what I mean by blobby when you get there - there really isn’t any other way to describe it. To move your blobs, click on them, aim the direction and power and click once again. There are a few game types - I’m most partial to the soccer one, of course. Try to beat the other players! I’m always up for a game - send me an email or IM me if you wanna play!

Blog survey: Bloggers are predominantly…
Unfortunately the last time I checked this site wasn’t working too well, but it’s interesting to see that the majority of people posting on livejournal blogs are feeling currently "Tired"! :D

Bloggers must have a genetic predisposition to posting in the wee hours of the morning.. why just look at me!

Feed your brain
Finally, here are some very interesting websites about the ongoing music downloading battle, which rages on. In an interesting turn of events, a superior court in the states overturned a decision by a lower court which had allowed the RIAA to subpoena ISPs to obtain the identity of users on Kazaa so that they could sue them. Now, the RIAA cannot force the ISPs to give up names, but the RIAA *CAN* still file suits against these particular "anonymous" users. It’ll take more of their manpower and time, however, so that’s a good thing - they won’t be able to go after as many people. What this means for Canadians, though, time will tell. In any case, the sites are a good read - and the stickering campaign is actually pretty funny.

Pow!

Boom baby! We’re bloggin’ again!

As you can all plainly see, my blog looks exactly the same as it did before. I know, I know, but really you can stop the applause.

Oh OK FINE, go ahead. *blush*

It was midly annoying to do, but I managed to convert my blog to movable type from Blogger. There’s now the option of adding comments, the CSS file is separate from the index.html one, and I can have many more pages all controlled through MT. Not to mention that I learned a hell of a lot in HTML and CSS in the last week.

So, YES, the site looks pretty much the same, but this time I was the one who made the actual template. If you’re not clapping yet, I suggest that you do so now.

Oh, and I just LOVE how fast the page loads now! SHAZAM!

njoy.

Be good, kids

Oh, I thought I should also say that you shouldn’t worry, I’ve got a bunch of cool places to post up my sleeve, but I want to keep them until after the redesign. Behave, little ones.
