I have once again completely switched over to sleeping only during daylight hours. I truly must be a vampire.
And what woke me up was this extremely disturbing smell, it was apparently James cooking shrimp & garlic in the kitchen. The odor refuses to leave my room. Couldn't he have at least opened a window? Bloody hell man.
Still sick, and have almost exhausted my supply of drugs, why can't I get over an illness in some NORMAL amount of time, instead of 3 times as long as anybody else...
For no other reason than Stefan's need for a new machine, and Aadam's suggestions, I give you the specs to my current machine:
Asus A7V266-E (with RAID) Athlon XP 1600+ 1GB PC2100 DDR RAM 60GB Western Digital HD (7200RPM) 60GB Hitachi Deskstar HD (7200RPM) 40GB IBM Deskstar HD (7200RPM) QPS Que 24X/10X/40X ATI Radeon 7500 64MB DDR (AGP) ATI Radeon 7000 64MB DDR (PCI) Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 D-Link Ethernet (10/100) USB 2.0 & FireWire 400 (PCI) Dual 17" SAMTRON (76DF & 77V) displays Altec Lansing AVS500 speakers (& a bunch of other crap that made me buy a USB hub because it's ridiculous how many things are connected to this machine) Windows XP (SP1) Red Hat Linux 7.2
Please note, that I built this machine way over a year ago (maybe more, can't exactly remember).
And now, since boredom and insomnia continues, TV? Yes, let's. Maybe Matlock is on...
I installed Red Hat on the machine last night, vowing to do all my internet-related activities in the soft KDE glow, but my adventure in Linux OS installation encountered many a speed bump (as it has done SO many times in the past).
Red Hat installed fine, only when I tried to test the graphical display settings, no go, fatal error, could not start X. Great, fucking great. After deducing the problem - me having two video cards, one AGP the other PCI, which was causing Linux to have some sort of fit when trying to decide which card to use - I pulled the AGP card and installed. Guess what, it worked. I re-inserted my card and now I have a nice dual-boot system.
But all is still not well.
Linux refuses to initialize the ONE thing I need the most, the reason for me installing it - the ETHERNET card - it can't initialize the fucker at all. I'm assuming Linux just doesn't like my card, so when I have another spurt of OS fever, I'll change the card and see if it works.
And a good morning to you.
Oh and Aadam, you're very welcome for the comments, but they were actually way overdue.
Note to Regis, I fixed #73, I noticed when reading's Vee's answers and I was like, "Low? that question wasn't in there..." You see, this is what happens when you do a 159 question-long quiz at 6am, when tired and horny.
001) Who's your daddy? Uh... you? You're my daddy! Now you can pay my rent and put me through college. 002) Are you sure? For the purposes of the afore-mentioned rent etc. YUP! =) 003) Favourite word? Hoozah! 004) Which of your fellow bloggers have you jumped? (wishful thinking not applicable) Since jump is not well defined, I'll take that to mean wanton acts of sexual misconduct, and in that case: Michelle, multiple times. 005) Whose bones elude you still? All other females on the 9. 006) Doesn't that just piss you off? Uh... no? 007) Now, really, which one of them would you kick off the island? Hmmm, Jamal, because his Zaboca sexiness would ruin all my chances of getting laid. 008) Is it because s/he wouldn't jump you? That'd be a definite NO, it's hard being green. 009) Do you read all the blogs you link to, or do you just link because you really should? Um... of course I read them... every... you know... well at least ONCE a year. 010) Isn't mush blogging ((c) 2002, Tracey Chan) irritating? Very, burn all posts in the fiery pits of Andre's anus. 011) As irritating as pop-up ads and Blogger? No, those take it to all new levels of irritating. 012) Are you a fr0stbytei wh0re? Ha! No my dear, I am their PIMP. 013) If yes, have you no self respect, you pimped bastard? Muhahaha. 014) In your opinion, what does it taste like? Unique, an acquired taste, but now I wish they made a bubble-gum flavour. 015) Lubrication, or not a chance? Lube it up baby, it goes in so smoooooth. 016) Did you just lie? I never tell a lie. 017) Which two of your fellow bloggers would you like to see in a 3-way with Fez from That 70's Show? Stacy & Stacey, I'm calling the producers right now... 018) Do you have a secret need for hardcore porn? Of course, don't we all? 019) Is it too hardcore to even mention? It varies ;) 020) Who's website rocketh the most? Mine, I am all powerful. 021) Who needs to go to version 2.0 in a hurry? Andre, that music needs to fucking go. 022) Who's most likely to kill their website and re-enter the REAL world? Well, Anji didn't have a website, but otherwise fit the bill, and Mark just did. It's freaky seeing the same design for more than a week... 023) Where's Anji? In Baijan limbo, studying so she can make enough money to buy and sell all our asses. 024) Is Justin's grammar not amusing? I resemble that comment, don't I? 025) Does the real world matter less to you than your hit count? No, I don't have a counter, but if I did... 026) Has your page rank been falling, oh my god? *dies* 027) How many degrees are there between you and Ben Brown? Well, none, I made a virus scanner spoof after being inspired by a post of his, I believe he said it was "fucking brilliant" or something to that effect, I also have a rather embaressing story which I won't be bringing up anytime soon... 028) Will you let me know when it gets to 69? Sure I will, you'll be the first to know sweetheart. 029) Would you buy t-shirts stenciled with "I'm so indian" on them? Buy them, I'd fucking MAKE them. 030) What if the font was really cool? Are you trying to make fun of my font choices? 031) Who scares you more: Justin or the dude from Powder? Fuck you, and you, and you, and... 032) Do you expect Easy 9 members to answer these questions? No, but I'm bored and sick, a combination which leaves me ample time to type away at a keyboard using less brainpower than it takes to flip through channels. 033) Would you put your picture on The Mirror Project? Um... 034) You did it already, didn't you? Damnit. 035) Would you be willing to contact Justin about sharing your hardcore porn had you answered "yes" to questions 18 and 19? Well if they are, my number's 954... 036) Can you kill me with your thumb? If my thumb contained some manner of nerve toxin which activates on contact with exposed skin, paralyzing you before sucking the life from your immobile limbs, yes. 037) Have you actually read the books, or are you just a pervy legolas fancier? Never read the books, I have enough friends that read. 038) Did you just lie about reading the books, you intellectual poser you? Why, how dare you! 039) Isn't it ironic? Yes. 040) Don't you think? Mmm-Hmm. 041) Would you like a doughnut? I'd love one, with the powder, ooooh, can it have jelly inside too? 042) Can you make a convincing machine-gun noise? Of course. 043) If you can't, did you realize that it's because you're female? *looks around* 044) Washing your privates in the shower: the lean or the fast hand-o'-water transfer? Uh...

I have actually never done the Karaoke thing, I'd probably faint on the way to the stage. 049) Do you get odd wannabe-vegetarian feelings after you've watched Babe? Never watched Babe, and now I ain't ever going to... 050) Art students are mentally stable/fucking insane? Always stable, until they cook your rabbit and paint your walls with its blood. 051) Is this the only way to get Stacy to post regularly/often? It just may be, because we're really boring people. 052) Why wasn't Titian one of the Ninja Turtles? I have no idea, the name may have sounded too much like "Tit." 053) Does the lack of answers bother you? What lack of answers, are you paying attention here? 054) Is Regis just filling space to get to the ever-sought after "69?" Well, I don't know anybody who wouldn't do a little space filling for some 69 action. 055) For real? You have no idea. 056) I mean, Titian was a great Renaissance artist, right? If he was so great why didn't they mention him in art history? 057) Do you mean actual "daddy" or I'm-hinting-at-sexual-prowess "daddy?" Well it all depends on who's asking the question, and whether or not you've got your dick in them at the time... 058) Washing your privates in the shower: thoughts elsewhere or pretending thoughts are elsewhere? Always elsewhere, I go into automatic as soon as I step in the shower. 059) Do you fool yourself into believing only fools fool themselves into believing things? You just made my head hurt. 060) Isn't everything about hinting at sexual prowess? Yes BITCH. 061) So, who is your daddy? I told you, rent, college? Have you even been paying attention? 062) Would you go down on me in a theater? It depends, would we be on stage? 063) Do you really think you'd ever have the chance? Of course, a world of opportunity presents itself before me every time I enter a theater. 064) You think the song is about you, don't you? No, it's about your pissing and moaning because I'm so much prettier than you. 065) Is it okay to like a movie that I know isn't that good? Sure, I liked the last Star Wars didn't I? 066) Does anyone want my photos? Depends, could they be considered amateur porn? 067) Which of the multiple intelligences is most developed in you? I've got an equal level in linguistic, logical, visual and musical. 068) Why am I even trying to think of witty things when my sense of humor has fallen into a coma? Beats me, you should go to fucking sleep. 069) Woohoo!!!... I mean woohoo? WHOOHOO baby, WHOO-FREAKIN-HOO! 070) Are you the monster that ate the television? No, but Stefan looks like him. 071) Did you secretly Want It That Way? Uh... Uh... 072) Would you kill me if I tried anything? No, try away! 073) How low can you go? Low? until my knees give out, but LONG (which is what I misread it as)... until she cums, however long that may be. 074) Are we running out of questions yet? Hell no, my eyes have only just started to bleed, carry ON! 075) Do you believe this is just Stacey's second post here? Yes, she will be evaluated at the next tribal council. 076) Those are fake aren't they? 100 percent real baby, don't like 'em any other way. 077) Will this thing stop when we reach 100? No, but I may be blind by then... 078) Why doesn't anyone like my 69? Well, it's probably your technique, you see it works better if SHE's on top, that way all you have to concentrate on his not suffocating and all she has to worry about is bobbing her head up and down... 079) Is it too large? No, it's just right ;) 080) Are you afraid of rippage? It depends on the hole. 081) Don't we all have to take some rippage at some point? I guess, ain't that a motherfucker? 082) Don't they do that to you in jail too? *faints* 083) What have you done for me lately? Well, I... um... aw fuck. 084) Do I look like the monster that ate the television? No, Stefan does, I TOLD YOU this already damnit. 085) Do you miss the days when "skettel" was a common term? I guess, although if I could remove every asshole in school from that time period it'd be a much fonder memory. 086) Do you even know what a skettel is? Buh what de mudder ass? 087) How big is your wishlist, you little Amazon whore? 74 items. And you people have not being doing enough to make that number smaller! 088) You like it when I call you that, do ya? Oh yea baby, call me more, more! 089) Forget about your daddy, let's talk about yo' mamma. How is SHE? Very well THANK YOU. 090) Which absent Easy 9 member do you miss the most? Christian, the big dumb lovable bastard. 091) It's because she's hot isn't she? What? Who? You hurt my head again. 092) No seriously, does Arthur's 69 scare you?

Like a fish loves contaminant-free water. 104) Do I love you? You better had bitch. 105) You like 69 don't you? YES, okay, YES. 106) Why? Because... I'm sick? 107) Would you?

No, but Rossi is ;) 113) I need friends? Well, let me tell you, sending them a quiz like this won't help matters any... 114) Why am I even bothering? Because you want to ride their shirttails to fame when they hit it big. 115) Should I be witty or perverse? Why can't you be both? 116) So is it right hand or left?

Get the hell away from me. 142) Which side of the bed do you sleep on? Any side Michelle hasn't claimed for the night ;) 143) Why are most pet names baby, babes, and...pookie? Because we are unimaginative and don't want to muck up a good convention, if it ain't broke... 145) How many hours do you sleep a day?

I hope those bastards over at the '9 don't think they're getting away with not actually answering the quiz. All we need is to elect and editor to clean it up (or not), and it's go-time baby.
