...You know there are programs out there that allow you to interrupt DLs ...

Joe

Of course I do, TWIT! But you sir, have discounted the IT Nazis that work for DOD; a group of individuals so controlling, Stalin himself seems amateurish by comparison. If...IF!..I could break the layers of protection that surround my system, any attempt at loading unauthorized software would be soon discovered; I would be hauled away into the desert and summarily dispatched by an IT firing squad (which would suck; they're IT guys, how good of a shot could they be; I would probably die from exposure before they hit me.) Mrs Wolfp MkII would not be pleased!

Ah, I'm back from my last near-death vacation, and I'm over at Dalem's, recuperatin', as it were. It's been an enjoyable evening, but I have to admit, the highlight of the evening is when Dalem set the stove on fire...

I ****e you not. He set the goddamn stove on fire. It was...magical. Suddenly, there was a lot of running and shouts of 'hell's bells, the goddamn stove is on fire!'.

But he never panicked. He made sure that...well, let's just say that it didn't spread. Much. He's going to be after buying a new pan to melt butter in, and the walls needed a good scrubbing.

Laughed? I damn near pissed myself. You can't pay for entertainment like that....

Well, I've heard that making meth can be dangerous...

How good a shot could they be? Marine IT guys? Ok, you're a zero and a pogue, so maybe you've forgotten, so repeat after me...

Every Marine is a basic rifleman

Yes, but note the distinct lack of a qualifier, like..."Every Marine a GOOD rifleman...or...Every Marine a GREAT rifleman. Rupertus was a visionary. He saw the era of the IT guy dawning and made sure mediocrity was built into the system to account for them.

You cant scare us with your sorcerers ways Lord Vader...
Actually I think Berli's right ... the CORRECT quote is:
Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerous ways, Lord Vader.

I mean if you can't get THAT right, what expectation can we have that you'll get anything right?

Seanachai lies....

Alll lies...

I do not, and you know I do not. Occasionally I fictionalize, dramatize, and exaggerate, but I do not, as such, lie.

And in this case there was no bloody need. The best part was when you picked up the pan that was in flames, and began running about the kitchen with it like a ground squirrel trying to figure out which hole to dive down.

I distinctly remember shouting 'NO!' when you rushed towards the sink with the flaming pan in hand, and I remember turning off the gas on the stove before I doubled up laughing over your kitchen counter. I remember laughing like hell. I remember you putting the damn flaming pan back on the stove while mumbling to yourself 'baking soda. I need baking soda'. I remember the fire finally running out of fuel, and you taking the hideously blackened, warped and weird pan to the sink, and sinking it into cold water with a hiss like ten thousand dragons pissing on a hot stove.

I remember laughing so hard I damn near pissed myself. I remember you frantically scrubbing at the blackened walls around the range-top, while shouting 'Lies! Lies! I did nothing wrong!'

I remember getting another rum and coke. I remember you looking... appropriately embarrassed.

I have returned. Two weeks ago, I had a goddamn intestinal infection. I finally went to the doctor on Tuesday afternoon, and he told me: "I'm putting you into the hospital. You're running a high fever, your white count is way high, and 'shifting left' (I'm almost sure that's what he said. I have no idea what it means, medically speaking, but I do know he looked at me like he was not announcing that I'd voted against another four years of Republican misrule).

Of course, as the UberGnome of the Peng Challenge Thread, I can't be having with going into the hospital. Not when I have no insurance, and my latest job just ended.

So I talked him into sending me home with massive oral antibiotics.

And I triumphed!

Which is to say, I didn't die. Apparently that option was possibly in the cards.

So, now I'm better.

But you people, are not. You're just as horrible as I always remembered.

Someone fetch me a stimulating drink!

So, we have Wolfp MII posting then, eh? huzzah. Berli tells me it's Aces and Eights back again. That means more to me.

What the feck is 'Wolfp MII'? This, I do not know. I do not approve.

I see some banter, some by-play, some give and take.

Complete crap. Stand before me, and tell me who you are, Goofy wolf symbols feck.

When the stone is grown too cold to kneel

In crystal waters I'll be bound

Cold as stone, weary to the sounds upon the wheel

Now be thankful for good things below

Now be thankful to your maker

For the rose, the red rose blooms for all to know

When the fire is grown too fierce to breathe

In burning embers I'll be bound

Fierce as fire, weary to the sounds upon the wheel

Now be thankful for good things below

Now be thankful to your maker

For the rose, the red rose blooms for all to know

Now, do you know, I am an Old Man. I have two small friends, who are like little bolts of joy that make you think about what you sing, and when, and how loud, and when you post. That is my friend Small Emma, and my friend Smaller Nora.

Dalem tells me that I should do my own Blog. I know nothing about this business of blogging. Dalem has his own Blog.

Dunno how that all works. I do know that I am growing old, and every day I lose a bit of myself to Death, and every day that I play with my Small Friends, I retain a bit, and every day that I die, I die a little bit less if I'm loved.

And I post here.

Right?!?..You obviously have me confused with someone who works in the privates sector...I work for the government, where close is Olympic and out-in-left-field wrong, good enough.

You've been away for a while so I'll grant you some leeway as to the posting rules here, BUT ... let's do keep the thingies references to a minimum shall we?

I can see it, man, I can just see it.

But you forgot to add the dog underfoot barking his fool head off and the cat looking disgusted, as usual.

{SNIP}...Stand before me, and tell me who you are...{/SNIP}

Would you prefer some existential claptrap or a saucy tale with frequent half-truths, more frequent lies, considerable frippery, unsubstantiated hearsay, fantastical rumors, and uncomely innuendo, especially as it pertains to my dealings with the fairer sex?
