I was at a jazz workshop all day today, playing the drums and bass. It was pretty excellent.
Now, I have to pack my suitcase for Canada =]

I'm still drunk.
Awesome party.
I'll post some of the pictures when I'm coherent.

Yesterday I went to London. An EPIC time was had in Camden. And I hugged SIX people, and erm, I had my first kiss in nearly seven years *blush* And I wasn't drunk either! I'd only had 5 single vodkas! I think I'm getting better!

This is what I do now:
https://www.gothic.net/boards/showthread.php?t=15697
But I am getting ready to become an laser optics technician. Computers are almost played out and will be replaced by optical switches and optical circuits which will be a bazillion times faster than current solid state computers. Now that optical signal integration with substrate lasers and detectors is production feasible the big push is on.

Oh, ok.

The Vundo Trojan virus is such a bitch to get rid of. Thankfully, safe mode + Malwarebytes= Successful cleaning!

You can also download McAfee's lates Stinger program to remove Vundo:
http://download.nai.com/products/mca...ger1001624.exe
Plus it will probably capture and remove crap you didn't know you had!

Were you doing anything that you shouldn't have been doing on your computer?

It sometimes snares the innocent: my wife picked up Vundo opening a job offer link. I always tell her to look at the link location, not link spelling but she got careless one time. Thank goodness her account was not privileged!

The internet is a battle ground. I'm waiting for someone to create an anti-virus/virus that browses the net and infects malicious programs. If I ever get around to learning computer programming, this will be my life's work, my gift to the world (and that little subspace dimension that also has internet).

Woot Cj is online so I actually get to talk to him (for those of you who don't keep track of my life he is the one who will be teaching in China for the next year)!

That is a good point. I am quite surprised that so few people seem to use accounts with minimal privileges to access the Internet.

This evening, I shall be saying hello to a few friends, then off to see Moon with Gent and another friend before it's out of the cinemas. Damn Odeon and its lack of decent runs for films outside the mainstream. Moon's only been out for two weeks, if that, and it's already in its last days.
And tomorrow, I have a house viewing to go to. Finding a new place is starting to get urgent.

Push up bra.
Red lips.
Perfect hair.
Who the fuck is this for?
Because I'm not impressed.

I thought they broke up over Che's slight habit of being a murdering fuckhead.

I unintentionally flooded a McDonald's while using the bathroom. The water seeped into the dining area and most of the customers found it amusing.
