Hmm, I think I found out why the professor loves his gamecube so much.
I fixed a template problem that I've had for a bit, now I'm working on getting my archives to work again. Hmm, it's not working....
I've changed my counter to a visit counter from a hit counter. Now it'll only go up on each visit to the page, not immpression.
Had a job interview yesterday. It went well I guess, relative to my other interviews. Left the house at 8:10 am for a 9am interview. The place was 427 and Bloor which normally is only a 20 minute drive from my house, but with morning rush hour traffic and all, I didn't want to take any chances. Got to the intersection roughly around 8:40am, took me 15 minutes to find the place. But for once I showed up on time!!!! Interview went alright I guess, the guy that was talking to me either was playing it up really dumb or he is tottaly clueless.

Personally I think he was just acting to see how much knowledge I really had but who knows. He asked me what kind of games first person shooters are, and I was puzzled there for a second. I thought, is this guy for real? Then we get to talking about how I've had a lot of linux experience, and he asks me what Apache is. I explain it to him that it's a web server (actually the most popular webserver out there). I also mentioned that I patched servers for SCIM whenever a patch was availabe.

He asked me how I did that? I told him rpm -i or gzip -d tar -xvf and boom server was patched. I won't hold that over his head, because he told me when SAP sends him a patch, they have to to write it into the source themseleves and recompile. Hmm, that sounds like a better way of patching things.

One cool thing about the job is that I'll be invocing the company for work done. Woohoo, he said I'll be able to write a lot of things off as tax expenses. And you guys thought I was done upgrading. Well, I guess of the 5 interviews I've had so far, this one I've done the least wrong, showed up on time and didn't manage to put my foot in my mouth. Let's hope it comes through, I'm getting bored of posting to my website.

October 30, 2002

Hmm, I think my hard drive could use some cooling help. But onto serious matters, people have been calling me a magician lately. Before I tell this story let's back up a bit. Whenever I ask Uzo for a money he owes me, I usually get a reply along the lines of "Do you expect me to pull money out of my ass?" To which I reply "Your greek, you've probably had many things shoved up their, now give me my money!".

Anyways so there I was drinking a beer saturday night (I'll post the rest of Saturday's stories later on this week) and this girl takes my beer. I was kinda distracted by the booze in my system so I needed Yhan and -Mike. to point out to me that my beer is gone. So I go up to girl (who had drool all over her shirt, but I have that effect with women) and demand my money back. She claims she only has a dollar in her back pocket. Well, I guess $1 is better than nothing right? So I put my hand in her back pocket (she had tight jeans on...really tight) and reached around for a few seconds, moved away the fat and found the loonie! Woohoo, I give her a slap on the ass and tell her to get on her ways. I successfully have proven that I can pull money out of my ass.

So next time I ask Uzo for my money, I full expect him to pull money out of his ass. And no, my magic hands will not touch it. They are only reserved for females with drool on their shirt.

Well the mullet must be back in style because BoostMonkey finnaly won a race. I know, I am as suprised as you are. I continued to get every possible second out of my under powered go-kart and managed to pull off laps that were seperated by 6/100th's of a second. Yes that is impressive because the next closest spread was 2/10ths. My car was as loose as TheProfessor's mother on a Saturday night though and traction was at a premium.

Anyways, next week looks like it'll be a change from the normal road course. It seems people want a change and we'll have either a change of venue, or try out the oval course. Either way I'm game for something different. If a new track is tried, it'll be ProKart which is located roughly around The QEW and Hwy 427. Here is an interactive map for those that want the exact location.

Lap times at ProKart's are in the 18 and 19 second range which makes it a much smaller track than formula kartways. Rates are $22 - 30 laps or 10 minutes, whichever comes first plus a $5 membership fee.

Anyways, get in contact with me if you wanna come. If we do head out to prokart's, it'll probably be a one time thing.

What
lesser-known Simpsons character are you?


Brought to you by the good folks at sacwriters.com.
Fuck, I forgot that I got to do some ass whippin (no, not the kind where I get a metal whip and change the colour of The Professor's mom's ass) on the race track tonight. I've been out of the loop for a couple days so I don't know who else is comming besides The Professor and Boost Monkey. Hey anybody know if the Sw0rdFish healed his back?

Anyways, Mondays are for good pics that show up in my e-mail box during the week, here's a sample:



Been away all weekend in Niagara Falls, woke up 8:30am this morning to bring in the focus and I'm beat right now.

October 25, 2002

Well visitor 5000 came and went on my site and didn't e-mail me a screenshot. But fear not, I'll make sure they are famous. If you ever get pinged by a computer with hostname

h-64-236-224-52.twi.com (no IP since they connected through a proxy)

remember you were #5000.
My cell phone is bigger than your cell phone. Let's whip them out and compare. I'll prove to you how much bigger mine is. Since my Samsung N370 is in for repairs, I'm stuck with a qualcomm 200, this thing is the size of a football. I'm not kidding. It's massive. I hate it. Anybody wanna lend me an old phone for a month, there's no way I can survive with what I got.
As of writing this post, my hit count is at 4992. If you are #5000, please take a screenshot and e-mail it to me. If you are one of those fuckers searching on google for bang bus passwords or MILF hunter passwords, you've come to the right place. I don't have any passwords. But please read my site.
Try not to wet yourselves when looking at this pop diva.

October 24, 2002

The Professor show's off his musical talents.
Anybody wanna buy my phone? It's a samsung n370 and doesn't regularly get a digital signal! And when I do get digital, it'll never get allow a phonecall over it. So I figured bitch at bell. They tell me to bring it to one of their bell world stores for a software upgrade. Alright, I go to a bell world store and they tell me to go to another one. That one is almost in oakville. Argh. So I get to the bell world store where they'll do software upgrades and dude tells me that'll solve nothing. He wants me to bring in my proof of purchase and he'll send it in for repairs. Nice of him to accept the phone considering I bought it from a bell world store. I ask him if there'll be problem with it. He tells me there won't be anything wrong with that as long as I got proof of purchase.

So I'm going to have to travel to winston churchill/403 tommrow and get that phone repaired. I'll be out of a phone this weekend for sure.

This is the ultimate test for TheProfessor. It's the only test he scored 100 on.
Doh forgot to mention, meet up at 7:45 so we can be on track at 8pm.
It's race night tonight so get your cars warmed up and helmets ready. Heres the lineup for tonights action:

In:

Me -- of course :)
Boost Monkey -- Fought hard not to finish in last, but he had serious car troubles.
TheProfessor -- Still hasn't let anybody forgot he won a race.

Probable:

Dark Phoenix -- haven't heard from him yet, but he's always there. Call me if you read this :)

Questionable:

Uzo -- Posted a career best last week, let's see if he can do it twice in a row.
UltraCaker -- He's somewhere out there. Maybe he's practicing on his go-kart???
TalonBoy -- Hmm, how did that java go?
SilentJay -- If he show's up, that means TalonBoy was there too.
Russian Rocket -- I have no way of contacting him, so somebody will have to help me.

Doubtful:

Sw0rdFish -- seems when you aren't winning injuries come out of nowhere. Ahh well, as noted below, he did admit that I rule so I can't blame him for anything :)
Well, it took me a while, but I finally got Sw0rdFish to admit to a few things. Read the box on the left. And THERE WAS NO EDITING AT ALL. These statements were all originating from Sw0rdFishes own computer while Stu was at home in his speedo's.

October 20, 2002

My condolences to The Professor on the death of his girlfriend. He loved her very much.
Haha, to all those that like console games, I think you should view this one. Don't worry, it's work safe.

October 18, 2002

Hmm, I always thought the best fights happend between players, not parents.

October 17, 2002

Find out what your prison name will be.
We all know there are people in this world with inflated self confidence, no while I won't mention any names. No while I won't mention any names, if you read my last post you should have a good idea who I'm talking about.

Now on to more serious issues, some people have been asking me why I don't update my webpage as often as I used to. Well there is one simple reason for this: I'm lazy. That is all.

October 16, 2002

Well we all wonder why the professor is fat. I've found the proof!
By the numbers: The Bears are 7-1 against the spread in their last eight after playing the Packers. The Lions are 11-2 against the spread after facing Minnesota. HOLY SHIT!

October 15, 2002

Hmm, how come I never had a teacher with Pron as a last name? And people wonder why I left U of T
Ok, so I finnaly gave in and posted the power rankings. And yes there is a new #1!

For those of you that think digital cable is a waste, just look at the quality B-movies on DriveIn Classics and tell me with a straight face that these are not quality films.

Before I post the power rankings, read this article on the different cables that connect your console and/or dvd player to you tv.

OMG Knight Rider: The Game has gone GOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the kind of stuff that gives people like Boost Monkey orgasms. Anyway before all you guys wet yourselves, check out the screenshots of the game.

October 10, 2002

Add this one into the unintentional quotes. Randy Moss on allegations he is soft (as taken from USA Today):

"Hey baby, I can take a hit. Matter of fact, each day when I get home, I take three or four deep ones, grab some Krispy Kremes, pop in Madden 2003, and I'm pretty much set for the evening."
I think I found out where TheProfessor has been lately. He's been moonlighting as a cameraman.
It's Thursday and there is a distinc scent of gasoline in the air. That's because it's racenight tonight. We'll be having our first ever Thursday Night Race and it looks like we'll have a jam packed lineup full of youngsters and one senior racer. But what really exictes this reporter is the fact that The Professor will be making his return to action after a one month absence (possibly to get better, but I highly doubt that). There will be a lot of action going on tonight and something will surely change in the power rankings (because I know everybody just loves my power rankings espically Sw0rdFish.

Let's run down the lineup for tonight:

In:

StuGautz -- Had a horribly underpowered car last night and struggled to finish 4th. He'll no doubt be a little more than angry tonight.
BoostMonkey -- Strong 3rd place showing last week means he might actually have some gas left in the tank. Of course his gas won't power any cars.
Sw0rdFish -- this guy just keeps on getting lucky every time out. His streak will end very soon.
DarkPhoenix -- Impressive showing last week. Has he cracked the top 3 or was he just driving a fast car?
TheProfessor -- Last time he raced, the tomahawk chop was cool.

Questionable:
Uzo -- Found new work last week which is a good thing, because his race career hasn't been going anywhere lately.
TalonBoy -- While his father is on vacation has taken over the family business. But will that be a distraction?

Somebody pull the plug on BattleField 1942 because I play that game wayyyyyyyy too much. One week ago today I was bored out of my mind. Now I can't imagine how I got by without BattleField 1942. If you love FPS and you got a great system with a shitload of ram and a broadband connection, I recommend you get this game now. Trust me you won't regret it. It's amazying.
Good news and bad news people:

Good news is that MILF hunter Ryan and Bangbus passwords are generating a lot of traffic to my site (something around 10 hits/day).

Bad news is I GOT NONE OF THEM!

Ahh well, I really can't complain about unique impressions can I? But again IF YOU WANT MILF HUNTER PASSWORDS OR BANGBUS PASSWORDS I HAVE NONE. There are places where you can get them from, just not this site.

And no Mike, I will not give you my username/password to fatsex.com. You'll have to get it yourself!

Oh yeah, I also updated the picture of my father's horse below so you can click on it and see a larger size (some people were complaining they couldn't read the writing at the bottom).

October 07, 2002

We all know that The Professor is a Gino. But which Gino club does he hang out at? Well see for yourself.
So I get called in for an interview today at 11:30am at the co-op office. Woohoo right? Well considering it's in Oakville that means I have to pay for parking :'( Interview is 11:30, I leave my house at 11am thinking 30 minutes should be more than enough time to get from my front door to the co-op office. I head down the 403 pushing my Corolla to it's usual 130 km/h (yes it does go that fast) and get to Trafalgar campus at--11:30am. Great right? So I let one last fart rip (one of those butt burners that pack a lot of heat) and close the door to my car. I get to the co-op office and it's 11:34am. DOH! I failed to take into account that at Trafalgar unlike good ol' Davis campus, it takes 5 freaking minutes to walk from your parking spot to the co-op office.

Ahh well, get through the interview fine I guess, didn't do anything outstanding or say anything memorable and walk another 5 minutes to get to my car. Open the door and guess what? IT STILL STINKS IN THERE. Those people who spend enough time around me know that at the best of times my gas can clear out ACC. Well add some nerves to that gas for the impending interview and I honestly thought a skunk had died in there (or at least the professor). I'll keep you posted as to if I get the job or not, but don't expect to hear anything about it any time soon.
Anybody wanna shake my hand?

October 06, 2002

Add this site to the lets view late at night/not from work coloum.
Seems that in my never ending ways to squeeze more bandwith out of myself, I have found a way to turn mud into bandwith. Not a bad idea eh?

October 04, 2002

In more good news (does it ever end with Stu anyway?) Here's a picture of the winners circle:

Got my new system up and running yesterday. Thanks goes out to Peter for keeping me company during the car ride downtown and supplying me with a ride to go out and pick up my video card. Here are the specs to my new system:

MSI KT4 Ultra Motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 1800+
256MB DDR ram (gonna upgrade it as soon as I get a job ;)
Radeon 8500LE 128mb video card
Aluminum Case w/ 300 watt power supply

plus a few older components from my old system (ie my burner and hard drive since I was too cheap to buy a new HD and too lazy to reformat my system).

So there you have it, I'm about to go out and get myself a copy of Battle Field 1942 because that game rules!

October 03, 2002

Talon Boy has finnaly proved himself of worth. If you are an IRC whore who likes to leach files, go download Bottler and start downloading away from IRC servers. It's a great interface to download files with.

October 01, 2002

Link of the day award goes to -Mike for his work find the latest tail ofbeating the ricers. I like the way the story ends.


In other news, Sw0rdFish has won another race. I'll post up the latest power rankings later, but to hold the suspense there may or may not be a new #1.
