Not a lot going on got today. Sunday I got some reading in and learned how to play Fur Elise. Well the right hand part.
Anne made us a really nice rotisserie BBQ chicken, potato salad baked potato and corn on the cob. We watched an hour of the “Honeymooners.”
Last night we had a good thunder and lightning storm out here. We got a lot of wind and a bit of rain but that was about all we got out of it.
Nobody won yesterdays $4,671,103.00 million, so this gets carried over for Wednesday. I’ll buy a ticket. I’d be happy if I got 5 numbers plus the bonus round for $166,825.10. Two winners won that one. Most of the winners win “The Big One” in Ontario or East of Manitoba. That’s where most of the population lives.
Still reading “Judas Unchained”. By this Friday I wanted to be at the books halfway point, which is around page 505. Instead now I’m only on page 272. Barely a quarter of the way through. I’d like to have the book read by the end of August but it looks like I’ll have this book read by the end of September. If that.
At 4pm it’s off to work and hopefully I’ll have a good night. If the boss is going to pick on me, I’ll put my name in at Pizza. I want to do this anyway before the end of the month is up.
Anyway Bloggers, that‘s all for now

I missed the
Cariwest parade but I got into Clairview and a long wait in the heat but at least able to read. I got home and Anne was just coming in and out. I managed to snag a couple of hours of a nap.
I wanted to do some hard drive back up but the unit failed twice on me and shut me down automatically. I’m going to have to figure out what’s wrong with this thing.
Of course I didn’t win The Big one. It was only $4M. So much for getting the ticket on 08-08-08. I really needed to get the ticket today. Today should have been 08-08-08. The next date like this wont be for another 1,000 years when it’s 08-08-3008.
One of the posters on YouTube (claiming to work at CERN mentions: “The first full circle of the beam is planned for first week of September and the first collisions in the first or second week of October. So nothing new physics wise can happen before then. And even then you can be relaxed as the 2008 run will only be at partial energy and low luminosity. Basically the real LHC running starts in ca March 2009, this year is mostly engineering tests and calibrations.” We’re at least 8 months away until full activation.
YouTube is an awesome resource. I wish they had this thing up and running in 1996 when I was doing basic math at NorQuest. YouTube would have been a Godsend. There’s even English Grammar tutorials there as well. Makes me think I wasted money on buying that book on Grammar.

Yeesh, could this be the week of decision?
About 2:30 in the afternoon I usually take a shower but the soap bar was dwindling down to nothing. I stepped out of the tub and banged my toes right into the tub. Hurt like hell. I didn’t think anything of it once the pain was gone.
I shut the place down and locked up a bit early as I wanted to get to Fs a bit early to get some JVC gummy ear buds. $12.95. Good stuff. Maybe there would be time to go to Audrey’s but I stopped in at the Redimart and got a lotto ($43 Million) ticket and a diet Coke. I borrowed the use of Fran’s pocket knife to rip apart the packaging. Insert into my Phillips Rush player and I was blown away by the sound these things produce. Very nice.
Darryl a long time employee wanted to get back to me about the vacation pay rate after 5 years it’s 6%. That’s about the only thing that keeps me at my job. So Darryl took me out back where the staff have their smoke breaks and we had a hat about this. He says he used to have his cheque accrued like me but the thing is, it gets taxed when it comes out like that in one lump sum. Or even several installments. The thing is, the Feds will tax the vacation pay one way or another. Bt he gave me a neat idea. He said he used to go to H & R block to get his taxes done and the tax consultant said that he ought to have the company take more off for taxes like an extra $10/week. This is what had caused me a lot of trouble when I was working at the A & N back in the 1980’s. Darryl had said that his $250 tax return went up to something like $400 or something like that. He says it really pays to have $10/week taken out. So I think beginning next week I’m going to put in some extra hours and get the form taken out to have an extra $10/pay cheque for income tax. That’s why I had so much trouble with A & N in the 1990’s. I would always be behind and seldom ever got caught up. It wasn’t until when Anne and I got married I began to do my taxes for the Alberta Health Care subsidy. The GST helped to bring my balance owing down from over $1,000 to where over the last couple of years we’ve been getting a refund. So now I’m getting a refund of over $300/year. An extra $10/week would also help.
Work went by really slow. I think I got $150 by break and 2 CC’s. I didn’t get a call back from Anne at break. I ended up with $395 on a $100 sale. That’s when the computers went down. Moe shut us off at 8pm with the option of working the extra or going home. Most of us went hone earlier.
I decided to go over to Audrey’s and get 3 books. My 2 “Ever Quest” books were in and I picked up the last in the Stardoc books plus a book on Grammar, which I had reserved for me for Friday.
Anyway I took the other train towards university and feeling happy listening to my Clash tunes. I had a chat with one of the transit supervisors at Clairview keeping an eye on the various “street gangs” in the area that have been causing some troubles lately. Not for me but just in general. I’ve never seen any signs of it. I caught the bus home and opened a window. I began to notice why my toes ached on my right side. Being diabetic I’m always worried about my feet. My middle toe on my right side is all bruised up now. I just hope this isn’t the pending sign of a hidden disaster.
Anyway about the toe I’m just going to keep an eye on it. As long as it doesn’t rot. I’m kind of worried about it. I don’t want to lose a toe and find it will need to be amputated. From the toe goes the foot and then the foot goes a leg and then that’s the end. What I don’t go through with.
In 34 hours 21 minutes the LHC will be activated. That should be about 11:30am Friday morning. Apparently the last countdown was for the finale cooling. If they have another countdown for something else, I’m going to lose interest in this thing.

Holiday hangover
Since I’ve made Geeklog my CMS of choice I’ve been wanting to learn how to do some FTP. The culprit and still is, the Firewall in Xp. I think it’s still part of Service pack 2. But my web guy got me a program that is similar to FTP called Confix. It’s a simple process. This means I’m no longer using “Library Thing” to display book cover images. May I direct your attention towards the right sidebar? The book cover images are what I’m reading next after “Judas Unchained.”
After JU it’s “The Icewind Dale” trilogy by R.A. Salvatore. After that it’s Lou Anders anthology “Fast Forward #1.” Then and if there’s time before the end of the year Mary Rosenblum’s “Horizons.” The book I’m currently reading “Judas Unchained,” is going to take me well into the end of September. I’ve been reading some thick books lately.
So I leave out of here at 4pm waiting for my bus under clear warm +27C sunny skies for my bus with my wife waiting with me. Her place of employment had no work for her yesterday. I caught my bus and realized I didn’t have any coffee with my hot water so I went into Tim’s for a cup of coffee. As I left, there was Shank and Rummar. Nice kids. So I walked back to the office with them. The boss wasn‘t there. I learned he’s on holidays for the rest of the week. Good. I ended up having a pretty good night pulling in $780 and only one CC’s and a $10 bonus. I had a good night.
I began writing again. That’s right. At the moment I’m re working an old story, “Crosshairs.” It’s word length is 5,220. I want to trim that down to around 4,500 words before I send it out. I think in the morning I’m going to go to Future shop and check on that printer and get those JVC Gummy headphones.
When I got in I tried to use that program Markus told me and with his instructions, it worked great. All I did was replace the 3 other images that were there. I need to do that on my own. That’s my next project. After that I want to be able to create a new menu and design and attach static pages to that menu.

At 8pm I went
over to Money Mart and enquired about their preloaded CC’s. They have a Visa which one can load up with any amount. The only drawback is Visa will charge me $17/month even long after my one time use. Plus I think the clerk there said 2%/transaction. Also the $20 one time fee. I could keep it ongoing and that’s where the $17/month comes into affect. The other option doesn’t look very promising is the Master Card gift cards but they don’t come in denominations of $50-$100 and I think I need
When I was up around 6:30 Saturday morning I head this bump coming form the outside windowpane. I thought maybe it was one of the cats that got trapped outside over night. Right on the edge of the balcony was some kind of blue exotic bird. I think it was a cockatoo. It stood a good maybe 8 inches. If the window was opened he would have been ours by now but I looked at the bird he looked at me and in that brief second he took off into the tree. It was really weird.
At least $125. I walked out of there empty handed still unsure of what to do. I’m not sure yet if WS is an online service or a physical product. I’m delving into this a bit deeper and I’m finding out more and more. I like it so I think I’ll just toss caution to the wind place an order. I checked the listings all evening and watching the back and fourth but I couldn’t find Main Event all night. NBC is out of Washington, and we’re an hour ahead of them. I might have missed it that way. But I’m off Monday night so I get to watch Raw at least.
This morning we’re up until 3am and we’re going to share a beer and take a pill. Probably not a good thing for a diabetics to do.
Markus got me an English translation of an FTP program and I haven’t yet heard how to use it so unfortunately I can’t place a photo here because of the inconsistencies with GL’s image files sizes. So for my Blogger readers, here is a photo of my latest piece of hardware. I don’t know what to do with the mess of all those cables yet.

I get a long weekend after all
The bus came earlier then usual for a change. I got my August bus pass at the Redimart. Another $66.50 spent. And when we get the new LRT trains coming, most likely the bus passes will go up again. I got in before 4:45pm and got a diet Coke and a 6/49 ticket. For 32 Million, I’d be a fool not to buy a ticket for $3 bucks. No big deal. I had $35 with me ready to go over to Audrey’s to buy some of my nooks on order. I had a brief talk with Fran as she was leaving to go home for the long weekend. She was a bit upset that she lost her parking space. It’s most likely different for the evening shift people. She said Don Brown made an appearance. I should give him a call on the way home this afternoon.
I was expecting big things for a Friday night shift sales were slow doing CBF all night and because it was a Friday night and as usual no CC’s right up until break. Anne called a bit early because her break changes all the time. We had a nice little chat. I ended up with $560 which for a 3.5 hour shift, wasn’t bad. No CC’s. I was thinking that if I had all my 3-4 CC’s to get my 20 CC’s to qualify for the CC bonus, Friday night, I wouldn’t need to come in Saturday. I could have along weekend. But no the bastards wouldn’t give me one CC. Not one.
When 8:30pm rolled around I was glad to get out of there. I headed directly over to Audrey’s. Trevor said some of my Warhammer books were in. The Omnibuses. “The Blackhearts” and Warhammer 40k “The Blood Angels.” The books are about an inch larger then regular pocket books. I was also going to pick up the last Stardoc novel waiting there for me but I didn’t quite have enough cash on hand as the two Omnibus novels were about $11+ US. I missed my train home by a few seconds as it was boarding the last of the passengers before heading out. I had a ten minute wait reading on the train home.
I got home about 9:40pm and did some admin stuff and settled in to watch 3 hours of wrestling goodness. Speaking of which tonight WWE will be having their Saturday night “Main Event.” I’m looking forward to this. If I can find out what local channel it’s on. My wife came in about 11pm and made me a nice shaved beef something sandwich with fries and gravy and cheese bread. Good stuff. Then into bed. I listened to a bit of Coast and passed out for a couple of hours. At 4am I was wide awake. Anne was still up watching a movie. Coast had open lines. My wife is having some kind of bronchial condition causing her to having breathing problems. I know she wants me home for the long weekend but that won’t do anyone any good and I could lose out on some bonus money. I’ve got 17 CC’s and I could end up with a bit more.
I changed my mind and decided I’d stay home this weekend with her. Screw the potential CC bonus. I’ll have to call Bud about 9:40am I’ll show up Tuesday afternoon and work afternoons all this week. Last thing I need is a call from my wife in the hospital while I’m on the job. Besides I can head out of here about noon over to Fs and get that external hard drive and Ws. I checked for our local NBC affiliate and WWE’s “Main Event” is only on for an hour. It’s mostly a publicity type show for Jenny McCarthy’s Generation Rescue. Hey it’s for kids and I can’t argue with that.
Also while cruising the TV listings for Space (my favorite station) I came across a listing for the highlights of Comic Con. Wow. This is on at 2pm. RJS was there and a bunch of others including Walter Koenig. This year at Denvention Robert J Sawyer, Nancy Kress, Ben Bova, Greg Bear L.E. Modesitt, David Brin, Elizabeth Moon, Kate Elliot, J Allan Erwin, Joe Haldeman, Kay Kenyon, Jay Lake, Mike Resnick George RR Martin, Larry Niven, Robert Reed and many, many more. Wow, what a convention. Of course this is World Con. I hear in 2009 it’s going to be in Montreal. I’m considering making a trip. I would have liked to have gone to Denver. I’m considering planning a trip to Montreal for this convention, August 6-10th. Air fare is about $300 return. A Best Western would be about $100/night. To do the whole thing right would be $1,000. I’m considering making this trip. If I did get a chance to go it would drive my wife crazy gone for 5 days.

Yesterday
I left out of here shutting the place down at 4:05pm but the buses seem to be arriving latter and latter. Now it’s about 4:15pm when they get to my bus stop for the Clairview train. I got into work on time but had a rough start to the shift what with no headset. Well the metal head band was missing. I was rather pissed off with this because I have to hold the headset up to my ear and that’s hard on my arm. I wasn’t very happy.
It showed in the 2nd half and I barely got over $300. It was slow for most people. Anne called at the break. I had a better 2nd half but Moe wanted me to move over. We were doing a bit of everything tonight. On Bob, I managed to sell baseball tickets a pack for $40 and I got it on a CC’s as well. My only CC sale. I’m at 17 for the week. If I have a bad CC’s day the next day is usually better. Fridays are usually good for CC’s and I have all of Saturday’s as well.
Then about 8pm the cheques were brought around and yes there was my vp. I was taxed $155. I’ll get most of it back in April. After work I walked up to the bank and did my banking. I took out the $360 and left the rest in there for my wife. We have over half of our rent here and Anne gets her cheque for the rest tomorrow. Also, I have enough to get a bus pass for August and I’ll be doing that today.
Over the past couple of months I’ve been looking at external hard drives at Future shop. One I’ve been checking on, a 500Gb hard drive was $145. Then it went down to $125. This weekend it’s $99, so after a few hours of sleep, it’s going to be time to go to Fs and get the hard drive and the credit card to order WS. I’ve never ordered anything online before so this is going to be a first for me. I’m a bit nervous. But at Fs they also have the Xbox 360 Arcade for $276. I’m very tempted to get that and Oblivion.
I was looking on Ebay Canada at some nice Clifford D. Simak books. I’m surprised they are still available but there are some 6 items, I’d love to buy.
Well we’re 6 days 21 hours away from LHC activation. I’m kind of excited about it. Will they find the Hogs particle? Will they find exotic particles never seen before? Maybe even wormholes. Now that would be awesome. The idea behind the LHC is to set the conditions before the big bang. At 600 million collisions/second, somethings got to give.

Anyway Bloggers, that‘s all for now
